One of the Saint-Tropez region's hidden gems situated on the south side of Cap Camarat
The coastline between Cape Taillat and Cape Camarat is a succession of pretty little beaches, coves and rocky inlets, with translucent waters over the polished rocks or golden sands.
Escalet beach is a small half-sand, the half-pebble beach which, despite its remoteness, has all the required facilities such as toilets, showers and a lifeguard. There are also a couple of snack bars where you can buy food and drinks, but there is very little after that, so make sure you have a backpack filled with picnic treats.
There is paid parking close by or free parking spots along the road.
The first beach you walk to is a mixture of pebbles and sand, and can get quite crowded, mainly because many people don’t want to walk much farther for their sunbathing spot. However, it only takes about 5-10 minutes to arrive at the next beach cove, which has the clearest water and perfect white sands.
Masks and snorkels are a must to explore the seabed. The coastline and its native species are protected and belong to the Conservatoire National du Littoral.
