On June 4, a major place in the history of parietal art, the Villa Cosquer Méditerranée, will be inaugurated with a restitution on three levels, allowing visitors to visit the prehistoric cave on board exploration modules, via an elevator simulating a diving chamber.

Breakfast delivered each morning.
