« An island where you can escape, an island where
you can dream »
The motto of the Embiez islands is a good reflection of the desire to think together about another possible world.
And its history is too. When Paul Ricard bought Embiez in 1958, he vowed to protect this natural paradise and to make it a destination for all those who want to rest and rediscover themselves.
Far from the pollution and the crowds, Embiez is one of the last natural paradises, situated next to sunny bays close to Sanary and Bandol. This is a unique site with its pine forests, creeks, beaches, its rocky inlets and its cliffs, where festival participants can discuss in a wonderful setting.
It’s easy to get to: just a 12 minutes crossing to get to Embiez from the small fishing harbor of Brusc—Six-Fours-les-Plages (18km from Toulon and 70km from Marseille).
