The Ile du Levant is the most easterly island in the Iles d’Hyères archipelago. Its south-western region is a paradise for naturism. 8km long and 2km wide, its highest point is 140m. An island of contrasts due to its status, Le Levant is simultaneously civil, military and naturist. This unusual combination is successful, thanks to a spirit of mutual respect. The mild climate, crystal clear waters, rich and preserved vegetation make Le Levant an island on which people live in perfect harmony with nature. The civil area, which accounts for 20 % of the island, consists of the village of Héliopolis and a nature reserve. The military area (80 %) is not accessible to the public. For naturist bathing only, the island has one small sandy beach (La Plage des Grottes) and one rocky beach (Le Bain de Diane).

The smallest of the French parks
Port-Cros is small and hilly, with Mont Vinaigre (194 m) as its highest point.
Its sheer cliffs to the south offer few openings to the sea. Thirty five kilometres of trails, and in particular the botanical trail, enable you to explore its landscapes, its forest, its forts... and to take advantage of its tranquillity.
