Summer is coming and it is time to go looking for a beach where you can spend a few days under the rays of Febo. We have talked about different beaches, Caribbean and Portuguese, for example, but today it is the turn of the beautiful French beaches. France may be a small country but it contains wonderful beaches, both on the Atlantic coast and on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea. These kilometers of coastline are also home to beautiful villages and picturesque cities. But what are the best french beaches? Let's see this top 6:
. Saint Jean de Luz: It is very close to Spain and close to the Pyrenees, in the heart of the Basque Country. It is the Aquitaine beach and there are shops, markets, cafes, hotels. It is a relatively small but beautiful town.
. Villefranche-sur-Mer: it's just minutes from Nice and it's a quiet sandy beach with fewer tourists than its higher profile neighbors. There are a handful of shops and cafes, beautiful mansions, and a pretty market. You get on the train in Nice and in five minutes you are here.
. The Great Mote: It is located a short distance from the capital of Languedoc, a beautiful area, Montpellier. In this spa there is everything from pedestrian paths, through shops, hotels and restaurants, to a wide range of water sports. Nearby is the Camargue so there you can see white horses and flamingos.
. Cape Ferret: It is a beautiful peninsula near Bordeaux with two beaches, one on the ocean side and the other on the bay side. They are quiet beaches, where you can swim, fish or surf. There are many 2-star hotels and camps.
. set: It is a picturesque fishing village that has museums, historical buildings and a great beach with its own lagoon. The harbor houses are pinned in bright colors and to see everything from a good height, including the beach, you go up Mount Saint Clair.
. Argelès sur Mer: It is a prettier and more relaxed place than its popular neighbor, Perpignan. There are small shops and cafes and its beach is long and narrow. It is also very close to Spain.
