Calanque de Maubois

Positioned less than 20 kilometers from St. Raphaël and very close to ZIP Code Roux , Calanque de Maubois is one of the most beautiful bays near the Massif de l’Estérel. Here, in the Les Trayas area, the coast is high and rocky, with a deep red color. The bay is an excellent place to anchor to be protected from most winds, including those from the west, which in this part of Côte d’Azur are the most insidious for sailors. The most protected part of the cove is the central part, where one can stop even during the night hours,remaining well sheltered. The only detail to pay attention to is the possibility of swell from the waters off the coast in strong winds. Laying anchor here is generally quite safe, however, as you enter the gully, you should pay attention to the isolated rock that emerges a meter from the water near the southeastern tip of the bay, at a ruined dwelling. Another rock to watch out for when navigating is located northeast of the gully. Therefore, to avoid these obstacles, it is best to always keep to the central area as you enter the bay. There is a bar and a parking lot near the bay for those arriving at the gully from the mainland. For those coming from here, access to the beach is via a flight of steps.
The seabed of the calanca is full of charm, filled with varied fauna and flora, and will delight all scuba diving enthusiasts. Hiking enthusiasts will also find a little piece of paradise in this area, between the waterfalls of ZIP Code Roux and the beauty offered by the forests of the Massif de l’Estérel. The Calanque de Maubois beach is a mixture of sand and red stones-typical of the area-that contrast with the blue sea and lush Mediterranean scrub. Although its beauty is known to all those who are in the habit of sailing on this stretch of Côte d’Azur, the bay remains a fairly quiet place even in summer. The Calanque de Maubois is an excellent starting point to reach ZIP Code Dramont and the Fréjus beaches or, going slightly up the coast, to reach the Golfe de la Napoule and Cannes.
