[EN] Var: Things to do in Roquebrune sur Argens (Provence Côte d’Azur)

Last update: 25th October 2022
Roquebrune is made of 3 villages:
- La Bouverie: a residential suburb in the middle of the forest
- Les Issambres: by the sea, overlooking the Saint Tropez and Fréjus / Saint Raphaël bays
- Roquebrune village: the old village

So logically I will detail tips and tricks for all 3 parts of Roquebrune sur Argens. Enjoy!
Food shops
Fresh and local fruits and vegetables from producers: la Grande Bastide
5-minute drive from Roquebrune. My all time favorite is la Grande Bastide. Fruits, vegetables, meat, wine… it comes from producers from Roquebrune or the are, or the rest of Provence. I like the spirit: this shop is a partnership between producers. The Ciamous family is an old family from Roquebrune.

💡 Stop on the way back from the Saint Aygulf (the sea)
