Trips to Saint-Tropez

St Tropez - famous for its beauty and stunning light, has long been a gathering spot for international jetset circles. Despite the influx of visitors in the summer, St Tropez retains the charm of a picturesque fishing village. Around the central square, outdoor cafes are bustling, locals can be seen playing pétanque, and the narrow alleys are home to small shops and restaurants. Take a stroll along the harbor and admire the sleek yachts docked stern-to along the quay. The exclusive nightlife comes alive here during July and August.

Gassin

Gassin is a medieval village perched high above the Mediterranean, approximately 10 km from St Tropez. The village is recognized as one of France's most beautiful. Legend has it that Gassin and the nearby village Ramatuelle were originally built to escape pirates who once roamed the Mediterranean.

Upon reaching Gassin, you're greeted with breathtaking views over the Gulf of Saint Tropez and the surrounding mountains. Walking around the ancient streets is a journey back in time. Look out for a street called L’Androuno, reputed to be the narrowest street in the world! Gassin is an ideal destination for a day trip with a touch of culture and a delightful lunch or dinner in one of the village's many charming restaurants.

Port Grimaud

Located deep in the bay, Port Grimaud is a unique village built like a miniature Venice. Its canals are flanked by pastel-colored houses and charming plazas. Conceived by an architect in the 1950s, it is now a popular destination for both tourists and locals.

Beaches and Medieval Villages

The area boasts many beautiful sandy beaches, both within the bay and on the other side of the St Tropez peninsula. The most famous is the five-kilometer-long Pampelonne Beach, situated a few kilometers west of St Tropez. Here, exclusive beach clubs that double as restaurants and nightclubs are interspersed with public beach sections.

Also, consider a trip to one of the medieval villages nestled in the mountains. Two favorites are Ramatuelle and Gassin, both located high up with fantastic views of the sea and the stunning landscape.
