Saint-Raphaël wins visitors over with its magnificent landscapes and beautiful monuments. In the harbour, you can admire the pleasure boats. Wandering through the town's streets, you can visit the Basilica of Notre-Dame-de-la-Victoire-de-Lépante, built in 1880, whose distinctive dome can be seen from all over town. The period houses with their elaborate architecture are also worth a look. You can also visit the Jardin Bonaparte, open until 11 pm in summer. Stroll among the olive and palm trees, in the sun or in the shade. It is calm and well kept. From this garden you can also admire the sea and the town, and it is always a real pleasure to walk there. Restful and restorative.
