The 13th century village of Bormes-les-Mimosas has narrow streets, romantic squares, vibrant colours, inspirational artisans, restaurants and architecture which make this an easy place to love.

Set above the coast in the hills it is a picturesque clutter of colour-washed houses, covered passageways (cuberts) and vaulted interiors.

The village takes its name from the abundant bright yellow vanilla-scented mimosas that flower throughout the village in early spring. In summer, the village becomes awash with bougainvillea and geraniums. From its high perched position, Bormes offers a festival of colours accompanied by fantastic sea views.

There is a very good market in Bormes on Wednesday mornings. The village has numerous historic chapels and churches and even its own ruined castle, which has breathtaking views across the Levant and Port Cros Islands, the pretty port of La Faviere and of course the bay of Le Lavandou. There is a Museum and Art Gallery which has some worthwhile neo-impressionist and pointillist works and also holds temporary exhibitions.

Bormes-les-Mimosas also considers itself to be a centre of scuba diving and is very near the National Park of Port-Cros which is studded with shipwrecks. In the vicinity plenty of other watersports are available, such as parascending, water skiing, wakeboarding, jet skiing and sea fishing.

There is 22km of coast, alternating sandy beaches and pretty creeks and coves to explore where the colour of the sea ranges from pale turquoise to a deep cobalt. Among the beaches are the charming Fort of Bregancon, Cabasson, Pellegrin and Estagnol. The coast line around Cabasson is unspoilt and has several forest walks.

Le Lavandou (approx 4km) is a seaside resort and has fine sandy beaches and chic beach cafes. It has a busy yacht marina with fishing boats still plying their trade; a fish market is held there every morning. The seafront is thriving in summer with stalls along the promenade selling arts and crafts. There are many restaurants and the town is a-buzz well into the night. From the marina are regular ferry crossings to the islands of Porquerolles, Port Cros and Le Levant.

There is an excellent market every Thursday morning. There is also a long sandy beach at La Favière (5km), which is the busy seaside area of Bormes, with marina, diving club and plenty of shops and restaurants. La Favière hosts a mimosa festival in February and has a market Saturday morning and Monday evening in July and August and is very lively for families during the Summer months.
