Photo - The Cap Lardier forms the southwestern part of the Saint Tropez peninsula and is mostly natural, with a large nature reserve extending from L'Escalet to Gigaro. Accessible only on foot, the area offers peace even during high season. In July 2017, a forest fire ravaged much of the nature reserve, burning over 500 hectares and leaving visible damage, especially between L'Escalet and Cap Taillat. However, the coastline and the area around Cap Lardier were largely spared.
A tsunami is possible on the French Riviera, even if most occur in the Pacific.
