Les Issambres

[1] This seaside and holiday destination of the commune of Roquebrune-sur-Argens, France, stretches along eight kiliometers of inlets and fine sandy beaches.

Clearly visible from the sea, it is located in the Val d' Esquieres, which Les Issambres shares with the commune of Sainte Maxime.

It is really a central destination for the area, with shops, restaurants, hotels, a promenade, village beach, and town square with a Monday outdoor market, as well as postal and tourist offices.

Continuing eastwards the coastline winds with creeks, rocks, and "calanques" along Saint- Aygulf (Fréjus commune).

Many private houses step up the hillsides—but virtually every building, including hotels, keeps a low profile, in contrast to the overbuilt heights in locations further east along the French Riviera.
