Bendor island

The island of Bendor is a French island in the Mediterranean that faces the town of Bandol in the department of Var.

Uninhabited and desert until the 1950s, it was bought and converted by Paul Ricard. The island of Bendor is nicknamed the "garden of the arts of the Mediterranean". Paul Ricard, a painter in his own time and an art lover, wanted to make this island the meeting place for artists.

The island of Bendor extends over 7 hectares. An organized hiking trail allows you to tour the island.
