Les Salles sur Verdon offers the perfect location for many different types of holidays. The beaches on the lake are perfect for picnics, sunbathing (there are also plenty of places to sit in the shade) and the water is ideal for swimming, boating and wind surfing. The surrounding area offers the opportunity for climbing (in the Grand Canyon of the Gorges du Verdon, Europe's largest), walking and exploring the many beautiful Provençal villages. The village itself has everything you need with shops, restaurants, bars and cafes. There is a Thursday market each week and a Tourist Information Centre with an exhibition on the history of the village. The market town of Aups is a 15-20 minute drive and has a range of shops (including an Intermarché) and banks. A drive to the coast at St Tropez, Frejus or Cassis would take approximately 1.5 hours - but other than for a day trip it is unlikely you would want to leave the area as it offers all you need, without the crowds of the coast.
