Boats in the Var: Toulon harbour, Porquerolles and the Gulf of Saint-Tropez

Three sea crossings in the Var, from Toulon harbour to the Gulf of Saint-Tropez by way of the Giens peninsula.

In Toulon harbour, a water bus on the local public transport network links the maritime station on Quai Cronstadt with the Les Sablettes pontoon in La Seyne-sur-Mer, and a standard network ticket covers it. At the tip of the Giens peninsula, in Hyères, TLV-TVM runs the boats from La Tour Fondue to the island of Porquerolles.

Further east, Les Bateaux Verts sail all year between Sainte-Maxime and the Old Port of Saint-Tropez, across the gulf. Each page says which pier to use, whether bikes can come aboard and on what terms, and when the times were checked.
