What to do in the Var this weekend ? The best off-season activities
Every Friday, the same question arises: what to do in the Var this weekend? The French Riviera is well known for its summer buzz, but when fall or winter sets in, the calendar remains just as full. The good news is that the Var is just as charming in the off-season as it is in the height of summer. Between nature walks, moments of relaxation, and gourmet discoveries, you’ll always find something to do in the Var today or this weekend.
Must-do sports activities for a weekend in the Var region
Winter hiking in the Var
Winter is no reason to leave your hiking boots in the closet. The Rocher de Roquebrune, the region’s iconic landmark, offers spectacular hiking with breathtaking views of the Argens River and the Mediterranean Sea. On a different note, the Massif de l’Estérel, with its red rocks plunging into the blue sea, offers trails accessible to all, ideal for a getaway in the great outdoors.
And for those who prefer the gentle sea, nothing beats a stroll along the coastline of Les Issambres or Saint-Aygulf. Out of season, you can enjoy the calm, the sea spray, and a peaceful atmosphere, far from the hustle and bustle of summer.
The Roquebrune-sur-Argens golf course
For golf enthusiasts, the PACA region is one of the most popular destinations. Located just ten minutes from Saint-Raphaël and Sainte-Maxime, the Golf de Roquebrune Resort is a real gem. Its 18-hole course, nestled between the sea and the hills, offers a unique playing experience with panoramic views of the Bay of Fréjus. Playing golf in the Var guarantees a sporting and rejuvenating experience in an exceptional natural setting, even out of season. Grab your clubs!
The spa: a relaxing break all year round
Come rain, wind or even winter sunshine, a spa experience remains one of the Var region’s must-do activities. The Daya Spa in Roquebrune-sur-Argens welcomes you in an intimate and refined setting.
Massages, Payot treatments, or Green Spa organic rituals… Here, time stands still, giving way to total relaxation. The spa is an activity to be enjoyed in any season, but let’s face it: when the days get shorter and the cold sets in, we appreciate it even more.
A culinary journey between Provence and the Mediterranean
The gastronomy of the Var region is another treasure to be discovered out of season. The simmered dishes of Provence warm the heart: pistou soup, Provençal stew, and traditional ratatouille evoke the taste of authenticity.
And for a dinner where flavors and ambiance come together, head to the Loma restaurant in the heart of the Daya Hotel & Spa. Its menu transports you for the duration of a meal : refined tapas, creative cocktails, and a warm atmosphere take your taste buds on a journey under the Mediterranean sun, even in the heart of winter.
The Var, a destination to enjoy all year round
So, what is there to do in the Var this weekend ? Whether you love nature, sports, relaxation, or fine dining, the department offers a wealth of activities to enjoy in every season. Away from the summer crowds, the experience is all the more authentic.
And to combine all these discoveries in one place, the Daya Hotel & Spa in Roquebrune-sur-Argens and its Loma restaurant offer an experience where luxury, well-being, and the Mediterranean art of living come together in perfect harmony.
