Hyères is the oldest winter resort on the French Riviera, yet it remains far less crowded than Saint-Tropez or Nice. Its medieval hilltop old town, a vast saltwater lagoon, long sandy beaches, and ferry links to the Îles d'Or (Porquerolles, Port-Cros, Le Levant) make it one of the most versatile destinations on the Var coast. Travellers who find it tend to return.
The city divides naturally into several zones: a walkable, palm-lined 19th-century centre, the coastal strips of L'Ayguade and La Capte, the brackish wetlands of the Les Pesquiers nature reserve, and the Giens Peninsula dangling south into the Mediterranean. Each zone has a completely different atmosphere, so choosing where to base yourself shapes your entire experience.
Which area to stay in Hyères?
- Centre-ville (Hyères old town): Best for visitors who want to explore on foot. The medieval quarter, the Villa Noailles, markets, and the best restaurants are all here. The Mercure Hyeres Centre Côte d'Azur (155 €/night, 4 stars) and Hotel des Palmiers (204 €/night, 4 stars, rated 4.3/5) sit right in this neighbourhood.
- La Capte and the lagoon shore: A narrow strip between the Giens Peninsula salt flats and the sea. Calm, family-friendly, with flat cycling paths along the water. The Ibis Hyères Plage Thalassa (157 €/night, rated 4.2/5) is a reliable option here with direct beach access.
- Les Pesquiers and the Giens Peninsula: Ideal for nature lovers and anyone who prioritises silence and birdwatching over nightlife. Le Hameau des Pesquiers Ecolodge, a Curio Collection by Hilton property (498 €/night, 5 stars, rated 4.4/5), occupies a restored saltworks estate here and is unlike anything else on the Riviera.
- L'Ayguade and L'Almanarre: The beach districts closest to the town centre, popular with windsurfers and kitesurfers thanks to consistent thermal winds. Good for active travellers who want both beach and town within reach.
- Giens village: The tip of the peninsula, quiet and residential with views across to the islands. Better suited to travellers with a car who want total calm rather than convenience.
Good to know
- Rent a bike or scooter for the coast: The flat coastal paths between Hyères plage and the Giens Peninsula are well-maintained and scenic. Public transport between the beaches is infrequent, so two wheels make a real difference.
- Book ferries to the islands early in summer: The boats to Porquerolles and Port-Cros fill up fast from June to August. Buy tickets in advance at the Port de la Tour Fondue, especially if you plan a day trip on a weekend.
- Choose your season carefully: Spring (April to June) and early autumn (September to October) offer warm weather, smaller crowds, and lower prices. July and August are peak months with significantly higher hotel rates and busy beaches.
- Toulon-Hyères Airport is minutes away: The airport (TLN) sits just north of the city and is served by several European carriers, particularly in summer. The centre is roughly 10 to 15 minutes by taxi or shuttle, making arrival very straightforward.
- Pack for the Mistral: The regional wind can arrive without much warning, especially in spring. It keeps the air clear and the sea a vivid blue, but it also means evenings can turn cool even in warm months, so carry a layer.
What to know about hotels in Hyères?
What is the best area to stay in Hyères for a first visit?+
The centre-ville is the most practical base for a first trip. You can walk to restaurants, the old town, and the market, and you have good road connections to the beaches and the ferry port. Hotels like the Mercure Hyeres Centre or the Hotel des Palmiers place you right in the middle of everyday Hyères life.
When is the best time to visit Hyères?+
May, June, and September are the sweet spots: sea temperatures are comfortable, the Îles d'Or ferries are running full schedules, and the crowds are manageable. July and August bring peak heat and peak prices. Winter is mild by northern European standards but many beach facilities close.
How much does a hotel in Hyères typically cost per night?+
Based on current availability, mid-range 3-star options start around 157 to 229 euros per night, while 4-star properties in the centre range from roughly 155 to 204 euros. The 5-star Le Hameau des Pesquiers Ecolodge is priced at 498 euros per night and represents the top end of what Hyères offers.
How do you get from Toulon-Hyères Airport to the city centre?+
The airport is located about 4 kilometres from the city centre, making the transfer unusually short for a Riviera destination. Taxis take around 10 minutes and are readily available outside the terminal. There is also a seasonal shuttle bus connecting the airport to Hyères town and the train station.
Is Hyères a good base for visiting Porquerolles and the Îles d'Or?+
Yes, it is the main gateway to all three islands. Ferries depart from the Tour Fondue pier at the tip of the Giens Peninsula for Porquerolles, and from the port of Hyères for Port-Cros and Le Levant. Staying in Hyères lets you reach car-free Porquerolles in about 20 minutes by boat.
