A Heavenly Place in the French Riviera





This pretty place is called Gorges du Verdon. It's actually not on the coast but in the inland of  the section of Var in Côte d'Azur. I guess this must have been one of the cherries on the top during my trip. I mean... just look at the perfectly turquoise water! The sun was shining and no one was busy (unlike during our other trips to cities and beaches farther away) The funnest part was moving around with paddle boats, which turned out to be so much fun. You could also rent a canoe if you wanted to.

The atmosphere was a lot like in those movies where lovers go relaxing in some lagoon. People were paddling, canoeing, jumping off the cliffs and swimming. All you could see were gorges, waterfalls and trees. I could even say that I wasn't in this world at that moment, I was completely elsewhere.








A cliché holiday photo, but I love the vivid colour of the water! (and my tan, haha)


After paddling around we were glad to find a stall that sold food and water. Just what we needed after this exercise! We would have had a few more hours to sunbathe but it started to rain - yes, it does rain once in a while over there! - and we had to leave. A bit of shame really.

Have you been to beautiful places which aren't that well-known? I'd love to hear from them!
