The Colours of Provence
With an average of 300 days of sunshine each year, you are almost guaranteed sunshine during your stay in
Provence. Check out the weather forecast and you're likely to see one sunny, warm day followed by another
warm sunny day, for much of the year round.
Beaches on the French Riviera are almost empty, except in the month of August when the French are "en
vacances". When the sun shines, the sea is a stunning blue, it's not called the "azure coast" for nothing!
The lavender fields are characteristic of Provence. You will find lavender everywhere - in the markets, in
gardens and in fields, images on china & tableware.
Sandy beaches on the French Riviera, blue seas and rocky shorelines grace this southern coast of France.
The food in Provence is wide ranging - from fresh fish on the southern coast - to the mountain cookery as you
reach the borders with Switzerland and Italy. Why not book a cooking vacation in Provence to try it for
yourself?
