Neptune, Bendor island
Perhaps the major attraction in Bandol besides its beaches is Bendor Island. The island is privately owned, but visitors are welcomed.
- 🌍 Île de Bendor (Bendor Island) (a frequent ferry connects the island with Bandol – journey approx. 7 min), ☎ +33 4 94 10 65 20, e-mail: info@lesilespaulricard.com. The island was bought in 1950 by Paul Ricard. The island has a hotel, a few villas, five restaurants, an artists village, boutiques and an art gallery, tennis courts, water sports facilities and a diving club. Two museums are open on the island in season: the Universal Exposition of Wines and Spirits and a Museum of Ricard Advertising Objects. €11-€13 (ferry return fee; reportedly it's free if you have a reservation at a Bendor restaurant).
