Sainte-Marguerite island
Lerins islands are a small group of Mediterranean islands that is home to some of the most upmarket restaurants in the South Of France. The two largest, and most famous islands are called Île Sainte-Marguerite and Île Saint-Honorat each with a different vibe – but ultimately boasting similar incredible scenery and gastronomy delights.
The island of Saint Marguerite is home to the impressive La Guerite restaurant. The rustic wooden structure, coupled with the intensely green lavish trees makes you feel like you’re in a Greek Taverna. Look across the water with spectacular views of Cannes, and the foothills of the Alps.
Be seduced by the incredible food, atmosphere, and views. Sip on a glass of refreshingly cool Rosé and soak up every moment of this magical corner of the world. This is truly the place to be while on the island of Saint Marguerite.
