Which are the best places in France for summer Holidays?

I like not so crowdy beaches but of course not empty... I want also to have the oppurtunity to see some places but in a short range. Do you know a place like that in France? Actually I was thinking of Cote d'azur ... Please I could use any help By LouisYou mentioned the Riviera, and it is one of the most beautiful places on earth, and also you can go inland from there, and in two hours at the most be in the heart of Provence, which has charming (and famous) little towns. But I assure you, the Riviera is extremely crowded, especially in August. I go there every summerr. One other option on the beach, less touoristy, is Deauville, on the Atlantic Coast. Yes, where the Allies landed. Very beautiful elegant town, less "sensuous," and again, a lot to see within two hours of driving. Look up Deauville.

hi
iam french
and i think , the best place in france is the "provence" and "french riviera" specially avignon , montpellier and marseille
i think it's the south of France, you can go to visit "provence" like Aix en Provence, but you have other cities more chics in cote d'azur like Ste Maxime, St Raphael, but i prefer the cities like Aix en Provence, Avignon, St Paul de vence....
