Saint-Aygulf the ideal place to enjoy the sun!
However, its center built around a legendary square and shops open all year round creates a village atmosphere that invites plenitude, summer evenings and endless games of pétanque… thus, the modern district does not forget its traditions and first and foremost that of the Giant Omelette which makes Fréjus the official holder of the largest omelette for more than three decades! Note: Saint-Aygulf beach is one of the largest beaches in the Var. With its kilometer long often exposed to the wind, it is a kitesurfing and windsurfing spot recognized throughout the world.
So, with its undeniable assets, all you have to do is benefit from the 300 days of sunshine per year and from the top of the hills of the district admire the masterpieces of nature present in the bay of Fréjus!
