Playing pétanque Provence-Alpes-Côte D'Azur

In the shade of the plane trees, this square is mythical for all petanque players, just like the Place des Lices in Saint-Tropez. Connoisseurs can't help but scrutinize the court located at the entrance of the ramparts wondering where celebrities like Salvador and Montand used to play... No surprise then if the tourist office offers a guided tour on this theme in which you learn everything about this game: doublette, triplette, pointing, shooting, carreau and... kissing Fanny! An activity not to be missed, especially since it is possible to rent boules.

Hardly a year goes by without the Belle-de-Mai district, around La Friche, seeing the arrival of an exciting new address! To be perfectly accurate, we're not actually in La Belle-de-Mai, but a stone's throw away, and at Les Pieds tanqués, a stone's throw counts. Here, in a place that's all about conviviality and meeting new people, lots of young people come for a drink, a bite to eat and a game of cochonnet. Because yes, Pétanque does indeed come from "tanned feet", and its name did indeed derive from this expression when it was created in La Ciotat. We love the healthy spirit of this new place for sharing, the idea that Provencal heritage can be combined with our modern lifestyles.

Located a stone's throw from the town centre of Vidauban, this 8-hectare area, which includes two bodies of water, offers a host of leisure and sports activities for the whole family. Water games, playground, petanque field, picnic area, ping-pong tables, walking tracks... are permanently and freely accessible to spend a very pleasant moment. In parallel to all these facilities, "the Drop-In Dracénie" offers outdoor activities for a fee and secure.
