Le Pradet

Coastal resort

Le Pradet is a charming resort on the Var coast, with 7km of coastline. Wild coves alternate with fine sandy beaches surrounded by beautiful Mediterranean vegetation.

Le Pradet also boasts a small, typically southern port.

Belonging to the commune of La Garde until the end of the 19th century, Le Pradet became an independent commune in 1894.

Le Pradet has always played host to celebrities, confirming its status as a holiday resort over the years. Murat, Raimu, the Baroness of Rothschild, Paul Claudel, Georges Bernanos, Lord Winston Churchill, King George V and the Prince of Wales have all stayed in this charming Provencal village. Le Pradet has preserved its southern character while developing green spaces open to walkers.
