Fréjus: the arches of the Roman aqueduct among the umbrella pines

Fréjus, the Roman town and its beaches

West of the Esterel, where the coast becomes flat and sandy again, Fréjus is the oldest town in the region: Forum Julii, the port of Caesar and Augustus, of which an amphitheatre, a theatre, an aqueduct and an ancient harbour remain; then a bishop's town, with its cathedral, its 5th-century baptistery and its cloister with a painted ceiling. Around it, two kilometres of sandy beaches, Port-Fréjus and its terraces, and the Esterel just behind. An hour from Nice, it is another Var.

Things to do

  • The Cocteau chapel. On the Cannes road, the Notre-Dame-de-Jérusalem chapel, designed by Jean Cocteau in 1961 and completed after his death: an octagon of stained glass and colourful frescoes, in a pine grove. His last work, little known.
  • The museums. The archaeological museum, in the cloister, with the two-headed Hermes, symbol of the town; the local history museum; and the Hông Hiên pagoda, the oldest Buddhist temple in France, built in 1917 by Indochinese soldiers.
  • The Esterel and the corniche d'Or. The massif is five minutes away: Mont Vinaigre, the lac de l'Écureuil, the mountain-bike tracks, and the corniche to Agay and Théoule. Half a day from Fréjus, on request.
  • Saint-Raphaël, next door. The old harbour, the basilica and the Lion de mer, ten minutes away by the seafront. Saint-Raphaël has its own fare from Nice.
  • The festivities. The Bravade festivities in April, the Forum Julii Festival in the amphitheatre in summer, the Nuits Off, and, in July and August, concerts and fireworks on the harbour.
  • Food. The restaurants of place Formigé and the lanes of the old town, the terraces of Port-Fréjus, the beach restaurants of Fréjus-Plage and Saint-Aygulf, and the wines of the neighbouring Maures.

When to come

Winter

The old town and its monuments to yourself, the Esterel in sharp light, hotels at their best prices. The season for lovers of history and walking.

Spring

The Bravades in April, the first swims in May on the sand, the Esterel in bloom. The best time to combine monuments and beaches.

Summer

The beaches, concerts in the amphitheatre, evenings on the harbour. The A8 is busy on Saturdays; plan the pick-up early in the morning or on a weekday.

Autumn

Warm water until October, the Sunday market in full season, the town handed back to its residents. Fréjus returns to its rhythm in September.
