Bed and breakfast in Hyères

Typical dishes of Hyères and the Var

It's not a diet that awaits you on the Var coast, far from it! In fact, the region's cuisine promises some great tasting experiences. Les plaisirs gourmands, for example, offers its customers a range of tasty recipes. These include Mediterranean-style roast sardines with a bouquet of salad and roast fillet of mullet. The typical flora of the area also inspires the chef, who makes a wonderful lavender panna cotta! The table at Le Ceinturon also offers exquisite culinary specialities. On the seaside, there's grilled bass with aniseed and grilled prawns flambéed in turmeric whisky. On the land side, you can go for the Pot au feu de poularde et sa sauce ravigote or a succulent Croustillant d'épaule d'agneau confite. These popular establishments are rivalled by other popular tourist spots such as the bistro Le Baraza and the gourmet restaurant La Colombe. On their menus, you're likely to find recipes such as Daube provençale, Artichoke à la barigoule and Loup au fenouil. Last but not least, it's easy to buy black nougat or Provençal honey to fill an afternoon snack.

Family activities in Hyères

The Hyères coastline boasts a huge number of beaches. The Ayguad beach offers a very pleasant setting and access for people with reduced mobility. It is also a firm favourite with kitesurfers and windsurfers. Not far away, holidaymakers love to take in the colours on Plage du Mérou, which offers an extraordinary panorama of the Giens peninsula and the island of Porquerolles. This little piece of land is full of exceptional places to explore! You can tour it in a sea kayak or stand-up paddle. Various trails can also be explored by mountain bike in Porquerolles, a fun experience for all the family! If you're staying in Hyères for more than a weekend, you're bound to need to keep busy in other ways. Take a stroll through the old town and wander into the little stalls selling souvenirs created by local artisans. A stroll through the Parc Olbius-Riquier is yet another rejuvenating leisure activity not far from the fine sandy beaches.
