    Be proud to be a responsible tourist!
    During your stay, keep up the pace and practice good habits on a daily basis.

    Whether it’s preserving water resources, waste management, energy consumption, eco-responsibility, short circuits or digital technology, mobility, marine biodiversity or the risk of forest fires: just a few simple gestures to give the planet a break.

    Check out our practical and fun ‘responsible’ guide.

    Since 2023, Grimaud’s biggest festival, Les Grimaldines, has been stepping up its efforts to become a more responsible event.

    These include membership of the COFEES (Collectif des festivals éco-responsables et solidaires en Région Sud), a primer on the festival’s values and commitments, an eco-festival charter, etc.

        For many years, bees have taken up residence on two façades of Saint-Michel church, and the local authority was keen to protect them from Asian hornets.
        Since 2020, the local authority has installed two protective cages for the swarms of bees.
