Why Île de Porquerolles matters

Porquerolles is a car-free island off the coast near Hyères, with forests, vineyards and white-sand beaches. Visitors rent bikes and cycle between coves. Ferries run from the mainland. Take a ferry early, rent a bike at the harbour, and carry water since shops are limited inland.
