LE ROBINSON:

 Ideally placed directly on the beach at l' Almanarre, the  Robinson has survived the regulatory frenzy that gripped the town of Hyeres. The restaurant, although very close to water, is in fact placed outside the maritime domain . So much the better for customers and for employees who avoided layoffs restaurants neighbours (Blue Zone, demolished by its managers, and the Surf, demolished by the `` care `` of the Hyères municipality).

If you want to enjoy the sea whatever time is not to be missed! Do not be fooled by any aspect side road, the sea side and the interior are very good. The view on the beach is superb, with the added bonus of sailboards and kite surfs a few metres (except July / August, where the zone is protected and reserved for bathers). Two terraces and a beautifully decorated interior space  leave
you the choice depending on the wind and sun.

Varied menu with salads, fish, plats du jour at affordable prices, which change every day. Wines of Provence of good quality.

Prices are very reasonable, although they suffered a serious boost at the beginning of 2007 season. Service sometimes a little overloaded, but the context encourages tolerance and everyone wants to enjoy the sun!.

The house has changed ownership in early July 2006, but the new boss has played continuity, maintaining and improving the card, while improving the decoration (protection
glass nearby beach , teak flooring, mist on the terrace very pleasant when hot, etc. ..). What good improvements!

The address is therefore to  recommend.

 It is wise to book! tel 04 94 57 67 56. Open almost all year.


Le Café de la Plage (on the Ceinturon beach):

Succeeding to Café Plage with a completely different team, this restaurant located on the Ceinturon beach starts again with  absolutely new decoration and two nice terraces, unfortunately not protected from the wind, what is a serious limit for such a place. Still the result of an administrative decision not allowing some kind of buildings, too bad for the customers who loved to have lunch face with the islands directly on the beach, but sheltered from the wind.

The menu is varied, with sometimes ambitious dishes. Prices are in increase in comparison with the precursor, but reasonably, considering the new administrative conditions of working.

The only problem: the personnel still did not find stability and heads changed a lot since the opening.

New: the management  changed its policy some time in 2007, undoubtedly because of difficulties in following too constraining conditions of contract which killed the neighbour restaurant, the Day. It installed a very nice terrace when there is not too much wind. but they also  increased their prices again;
  

Open during summer and  in winter for saturday and sunday lunch.



Le DAY (
on the Ceinturon beach):

The new dealers did not resist to the too binding specifications set up by the municipality: closure all winter long, too much raised price(prize,prices of concession, too much squeezed schedules of opening. Result closure of the restaurant.

The former dealers had not wanted to restart in these conditions. They were regrettably right.

In the meantime, here is a restaurant of beach lost for the customers and a royalty 
lost for the municipality!!

New: summer 2008: it seems that a new team took over. We will try again.


L'Endroit (at the beginning of the Bergerie beach , near the Port St Pierre) 

Pleasant surprise. At noon, a varied card and a magnificent sight on Islands.

The evening,  trendy atmosphere and  sound system.

Opened only during the  season.



PRADEAU plage, almost
at the end of  Giens peninsula, near the port of the Tour Fondue


Thanks to Var matin, grace to whom we discovered this very well hidden address.

It contrehaut of the beach, down under the pine forest, with a magnificent sight on the Tour Fondue, Porquerolles, the ilôts of the big and small Ribaud, and, naturally, on the beach of Pradeau.

Opened only in season. 
Rather standard cooking, but prices more than reasonable (big salads  from 7 ?)

Nice service. Private  car park reserved to the customers.

It is wise to reserve!! tel 04 94 58 29 06. 

Do not miss the small poster to the right of the road, at the number 1420 of the avenue des Arbanais, which indicates you the road in ground which leads to the car park of the restaurant.

La Baie des Vahinés , (on the beach of the Salins, east of Hyères) 

At the end of beaches just behind Port Pothuau, in les Salins

Plaçed set back from the sea, in a light hollow.

We do not dominate the sea but we have a beautiful panoramic sight on Port Cros, Porquerolles and the east headland o fhe peninsula of Giens The place is rather small (limited by the rules of "Littoral law")

Little smiling reception and service. Varied card, rather expensive considering little of inventiveness of the chef.

The cooking is correct, but not original.


Le SOLARIUM ,Snack bar on the road leading to the small port of la Madrague, in front of the International Camping:

You walk past without seeing it, you are wrong.
Plaçed from about ten meters of the beach of Madrague, this small unpretentious restaurant offers a beautiful sight on the Road of the salt and the beach of Almanarre. In addition,  along the terrace, fans of windsurfing board coming from the International campsite, which stands on the other side of the road.
The card is varied and at all the prices. If you venture on a fish (guaranteed very fresh), you will not be disappointed. If you stay in a salad, you will not be either disappointed.

The BAMBOO, in Carqueiranne,

On the small beach of Pradon, to Carqueiranne, the lucky guys who succeded in parking their car can try this restaurant of beach. More feet in the water than that, not possible!! In the evening, moreover, it is
downright feet in the water for 2 or 3 reserved tables.

Nice and unpretentious. Not complicated cooking, but with a varied card, going from the salads to pizzas and good fishes.
It is wise to reserve. Tel  04 94 58 65 64
 

La Brise Marine, in Carqueiranne,

It is on the beach of Pradon, in front of the Bamboo. The hotel started this year a restaurant, that starts and that is  a little
obvious.Tthe service is nice, but does not come from the school of hotellerie. There are about ten tables on a small lawn above the water. It is charming.
The cooking is simple, even rustic, but the prices are very reasonable.



Le Duplex, ou le Saint Pierre  (we do not know any more which is the current name), in Pradet, on the beach of the Garonne.

Three tables are splendidly placed inside above waves. It is all that we can say, because the house changed 4 or 5 times of manager since 2004. Our last visits were not encouraging.
For those who have the taste of  risk, keep us informed!!

L'Abri Cotier à l'Ayguade

On the recommendation of pgvinyl, we tried it. It is more a summer resto, because the main dining room  is simply closed by transparent baches, to avoid by East wind. The furniture and the decoration are simple, but the terrace looks directly on to the beach, which becomes rae in Hyères!! Moreover, the restaurant does not appear as gastronomic, but as a " LOLO of beach ".
It is indeed that. Atmosphere rather young. The card is very varied and nice, with Corsican, West Indian dishes, etc. which go out of the routine Hyèroise. A good address for the evenings of good weather

We also advise you in Porquerolles island the restaurant of the Plage d' Argent: placed on a magnificent terrace overhanging very frequented Silver Beach  (in 10 minutes by foot on the West of the harbour), this establishment takes advantage of its exceptional position without too much excess. The prices are rather high, but the cooking is looked after and rather creative. The service and the reception could be more smiling (the boss is completely stressed , what sometimes gives place to unpleasant incidents, even if we understand that the tourists are not always pleasant). It is absolutely indispensable to reserve, possibly the day before. Tel  04 94 58 32 48
 
To complete my list, you may find better to forget about Le SALINAS (on the Almanarre beach), the  PADDOCK (on the Bergerie beach) ,  ASHKEL'ON PLAGE (on the Bergerie beach),  Tahiti Plage (near the small harbour of la Capte). Click on the names and you will get the explanations in French.

And, if you go to take the sun on the beaches of Mourillon, in TOULON, distrust you of certain restaurants which are not worth the movement. Among several installed on these beaches of Mourillon, we recommend you two restaurants opened almost all year long:

- La Plage, completely at the beginning when you come from Toulon center.
 The service is very pleasant and professional. The varied card changes regularly and the ratio quality / price is very good, 

- The LIDO, just before arriving at the big public car parks, with its small private car park.
The addition is clearly higher than in La Plage, the
atmosphere less young , but the quality is as high as the prices.
To reserve for the events to be celebrated.
