Pictures
City had population of 31,000 at last census
City has done a lot to make it traveler-friendly
Couldn't see why Rick Steve's liked it so much
Did long walk between St Raphael & Frejus
Lots of development continuing; not pretty
Marina looked nice compared to yachts in Cannes
Nice spot to read the morning soccer news
Notre Dame Basilica holds prominent location
One sister city to town is Ghent, Belgium
Promenade actually covers large parking garage
Really nice beach here; too early for most
Site of beach landing during Allied WW2 invasion
Source for bacteria in anti-TB drug found here
Supposedly fishing is still big industry here
Unusual for France,town has big empty square
