Provence has everything from some of the most beautiful sunny beaches to villages on mountain tops. Along the Mediterranean Sea, across the mountains of the Luberon locates the French Riviera with its grounds of Monaco, Nice and Cannes.

Throughout most of the year, Provence has glorious sunshine. This sunshine has a light intensity that is unknown in other places of France.

Provence is famous for its country side, and the cowboys that live there, together with the flamingos of the Camargue. There also lie the hills of Luberon which are brilliantly covered in lavender and the vineyards of Châteauneuf du Pape. Fishing villages, the port of Marseille, the papal palace of Avignon, even the towering 1909 metre High Mount Ventoux and beaches of the Riviera with lots of tourist can be found here .
