Photo – Tucked away in the Var department, just off the coast of Hyères, lies Port-Cros, a stunning island that’s part of the Îles d’Hyères archipelago. Unlike its livelier sister island Porquerolles, Port-Cros is a protected national park, offering unspoiled natural beauty, crystal-clear waters, and tranquil hiking trails through untouched Mediterranean forest. Here’s a fascinating fact: Port-Cros is France’s very first marine national park, established in 1963—and one of the earliest in all of Europe. Fishing is strictly regulated, motor traffic is forbidden, and even anchoring is limited to protect the rich seabed. Because of this, Port-Cros is a paradise for snorkelers and divers, with an abundance of sea life just meters from the shore.
