France Guide: Where is it
The South of France has the enviable fusion of miles of shore and fertile agricultural landscapes and has been the foundation for artists, composers and writers as well as the new visitor.
Where is it?
The term’South of France’ is generally used to describe the southern stretch of the country’s coastline that runs between Spain and Italy, and the rustic inland areas that include Provence and the Lubron. With its warm climate, fruitful landscape and developed coastline, it is one of the most regularly-visited parts of Europe.
Where am I able to stay?
Unsurprisingly, for somewhere as well liked as the South of France, there is no deficit of hostels, guesthouses, bed and breakfasts and camp sites.

What can I see?
The South of France is too big an area to be fully explored in a single vacation, which is why many folks return year after year. Some of France’s most costly resorts lie on the south coast, including St. Tropez and Cannes, and where better to watch the yachts and fashions of the wealthy and famous? The area is known for its shore, sailing and water sports and for the cities that lie near it : Nice, Marseilles and Montpelier for instance. Inland, Provence is well known for its rolling landscapes, stretches of vineyards and swathes of wild flowers. With no shortage of important buildings, local marketplaces and museums to explore, the South of France has something for everybody.
How do I am getting around?
if you are planning on exploring the South of France, you must hire an auto. The French, like most European nations, drive on the right side of the road and the roads are essentially well-maintained, though many are toll-controlled and you will have to pay at marked toll stations to use the main road network. If you are planning on staying often in one place and just visiting major towns or traveller areas, then go for the train system, controlled by SNCF.
