In 2014, Domaine du Bourrian was acquired by a new family who embarked on a complete transformation of the estate, from replanting the vineyards to restoring the grounds. Their vision was to transform their passion for wine and Provence into a place where others could share the beauty and tradition of the region, while preserving its authentic Provencal character. Today, Domaine du Bourrian is one of the region's newest projects, offering a range of public and private experiences. The estate includes a large barrel room, a tasting room and terrace, a garden with vegetable patch, a pool area and a house available for private rental - each inviting you to experience the spirit of Provence.

In La Londe les Maures, facing the islands of Porquerolles and Port-Cros Located at the tip of the rocky spur of the Argentière and Pellegrin beaches, in a totally protected area. The coastal underwater world can be discovered on the surface, with fins, mask and snorkel by anyone who can swim. By following the numbered buoys equipped with handrails you will discover the underwater panels presenting the ecosystem. At depths ranging from 0 to 4 metres, there is a wide variety of underwater landscapes (posidonia meadow, cymodocae, rocks, sand, scree...), inhabited by numerous species of fish, molluscs, crustaceans, starfish... The posidonia meadow: this is not a seaweed but a plant with marine flowers. Posidonia plays a very important role in fixing the sandy bottom, thanks to its roots which form a sort of barrier called the "matte" when they mix with the sediments. A real "lung" of the Mediterranean, this plant has been protected since 1988. The underwater trail can be explored on your own from June to September, following the numbered buoys. An Aquaguide for identifying the species is available at the Tourist Office. Equipment required, not supplied: mask, snorkel, fins.

At the precise spot where the first African commandos landed, at the head of the "Romeo Force", climbing the cliffs of Cape Negro at night, a lava stone commemorative plaque (representing the insignia of the commandos) has been affixed in memory of this glorious episode and in tribute to the first liberators of Le Lavandou. Only visible from the sea, this stele was fixed on the rocks where 35 men took foot shortly after midnight and from where they climbed the steep walls silently to reach the location of the enemy guns which was hundred meters higher. This detachment was led by Captain DUCOURNAU and, first of all, a mountain guide, Sergeant DABOUSSY. Their mission was to establish a bridgehead that will neutralize the coastal batteries and allow the Allied armada, seven hours later, to land in force on the beaches of Provence

For the first time, the town of Cavalaire and the Conservatoire du Littoral are offering a special tour of the Maison Foncin every Wednesday.

At the head of the second commando shock composed of Moroccans, Captain THOREL is killed in action at the Fossette August 17, 1944 while participating in the liberation of Le Lavandou.

The night of November 6, 1942, the small beach of La Fossette is the scene of a secret operation that will play a role in the history of the Second World War two years before the landing of Provence. Escaped a few months earlier from the German fortress of Königstein, General GIRAUD embarks on a point with the help of the patron saint Lavandourain Jules CREST and local resistance fighters. Less than 1 mile from Pointe de la Fossette, a British submarine "Seraph" is waiting to take him to Gibraltar from where he will join the French army in North Africa to participate in Torch Operation, which will be a turning moment of the conflict on the Western Front.

This fine sandy beach was one of the key sites of the Provence Landings for the liberation of France in 1944. This is a wide beach, ideal for family holidays. The beach is supervised by lifeguards from June to September (variable hours depending on season) and you can get there with the free shuttle bus from mid-June to mid-September.
