Discover the markets of Bandol

THE DAILY MARKET

In the early morning, when the alleys are still calm and the sun has not quite risen, a ballet takes place every day on the Place de la Mairie. Stands are set up, friendly words are exchanged, wonders take place and smells begin to be felt. Then arrive the first customers, mostly regulars or curious for others. This is how this seemingly calm square comes to life every morning.

Here you will find everything you will need. Seasonal and local fruits and vegetables, fresh fish, shellfish, cheeses and other local products. But that's not all. Very gourmets will also find what they are looking for: fresh pasta stand, local specialties such as the famous cade toulonnaise, fresh and sunny dishes prepared every day to delight our taste buds... the choice is not lacking.

THE BIG MARKET

Once a week, on Tuesday morning, another ballet is played. A lot bigger this time! Every week, the port is transformed into a real Provençal market. Colours, smells, pleasure for the eyes and delicacies… all our senses are awakened to fully appreciate the event.

You will obviously find fresh fruit and vegetable stands, run by local producers, in love with the land and wishing to share their beautiful work with us. But that's not all. Fishermen from Bandol are also present with their treasures just out of the water.

Regional products are also included with honey, olives, olive oils or even breads, pastries and other dishes prepared with love. Other products such as clothing, kitchen equipment, tablecloths, jewelry and accessories are also included.

And even if you are not looking for any of this, we assure you that simply strolling among these beautiful colorful stands will immediately immerse you in a southern atmosphere that you will not want to leave.

THE NIGHT MARKET

In each season, when the days are longer and the temperatures more pleasant, a night market is held every evening on the port. Here, no fruit or vegetable and even less fish but a real village of creators.

After an outdoor dinner, in one of our restaurants, we invite you to come and stroll here, among the stalls, and thus enjoy the mildness of the evening. As you progress, discover the work of local artisans through jewelry, paintings, ceramics and other original creations. Enjoy the colors and the spectacle of this beautiful night market by the sea.
