The Espace Naturel Sensible de la Tourbière de Charamel forms the boundary between Frontonas and Panossas. Its large peripheral reed bed is home to marsh birds such as reed warblers, reed buntings, purple herons and little bitterns. The sandy meadows there provide egg-laying sites for European pond turtles and shelter in the form of burrows for European bee-eaters. Along the municipal paths in the Espace Naturel Sensible de la Tourbière de Charamel, visitors can observe a mosaic of natural habitats.

Anyone considering Frontonas as a travel destination may wish to rent a holiday apartment.

The present-day parish church of Saint-Julien was built on the site of the former parish church. A clock was installed in the Église Saint-Julien in 1899. Its bell tower houses three bells, two of which are protected under the regulations governing historic monuments.

The plans for the parish church of Saint-Julien, dated 5 April 1849, provided for extending the nave by one and a half bays and constructing a western gallery.
