Plage de Landsberg is a picturesque beach nestled in the Alpes-Maritimes area in the PACA region of France, in the town of Saint-Laurent-du-Var. The beach is uniquely located between the promenade des Flots Bleus and Cap 3000, making it easily accessible and surrounded by various amenities.
The natural characteristics of Plage de Landsberg are noteworthy. The beach is adorned with a mixture of artificial gray sand and pebbles, offering a unique texture and aesthetic. Despite its pebbled appearance at the start of summer, the beach provides a smooth entry into the water, thanks to the mix of sand and pebbles. The beach's shallow waters and the presence of several breakwaters make it a safe and ideal spot for children. Moreover, the beach is never crowded, offering a tranquil environment for relaxation.
Plage de Landsberg is not only known for its beauty but also for the variety of amenities it offers. During the summer, a lifeguard station is set up on the right side of the beach, ensuring the safety of beachgoers. On the left side, windsurfing is a popular activity, adding to the beach's recreational appeal. The beach is lined by a pedestrian promenade dotted with a variety of restaurants and cafes, providing ample options for food and drinks. Additionally, the beach features showers and a sheltered little bay for swimming.
Parking at Plage de Landsberg can be a challenge during the summer due to the influx of visitors. However, there are underground parking options available on Avenue du Ponant. Additional parking facilities are also available near Cap 3000. Despite the proximity to the airport and the occasional noise from departing and arriving planes, the beach's serene environment and beautiful scenery make it a popular destination.
However, potential visitors should be aware of the beach's occasional closures due to pollution from the nearby Var River and sewage treatment plant, especially after heavy rains. It's recommended to check the water quality before planning a visit. Despite this, Plage de Landsberg remains one of the most beautiful beaches in Saint-Laurent-du-Var.
