Bandol

The port of Bandol is located on the French Mediterranean coast in the Var department and is a popular port of call for cruise ships. The town of Bandol, known for its wines and picturesque beaches, offers visitors a combination of natural beauty and cultural wealth.

Cruise ships usually dock off the coast, as the port itself cannot accommodate large ships. Passengers are taken to the port by tender boats, which is located in close proximity to the city center. This allows easy access to the local sights. The waterfront promenade is lined with restaurants, cafés and boutiques that invite you to linger. A highlight is a visit to the surrounding vineyards, where the famous Bandol wine is produced.

There are numerous excursion options in the area around Bandol. Popular destinations include the Île de Bendor, a small island that can be reached by a short ferry ride, and the Jardin Exotique et Zoo de Sanary-Bandol, a botanical garden with rare plants and animals. The surrounding beaches and bays are also ideal for relaxing and swimming.

The port of Bandol combines the natural beauty of the Côte d'Azur with cultural and culinary experiences and offers cruise guests an unforgettable experience.
