Saint-Tropez, this little paradise in the south of France… you’re bound to have a good time and not be bored! Sublime beaches with crystal clear water, beautiful viewpoints, beautiful villages around Saint-Tropez like Sainte-Maxime or Grimaud.
In this post, I will show you the must-sees of Saint-Tropez.
Saint-Tropez is obviously the place to visit when you come for the first time on vacation in this part of the Var.
And when you’re done visiting Saint-Tropez, then you can go relax on the sand. On the beach of Pampelonne, of course!
The 4.5km long beach of Pampelonne is simply magnificent with its white sand and crystal clear water. And for those who wish, it is possible to enjoy the many private beaches of Pampelonne, such as Nikki Beach.
It’s a small picturesque port lined with cafes and stores, a popular stopover for sailboats & luxury yachts. It’s nice to walk around.
You can make a boat trip with the company Rose des Vents. During this one-hour excursion, you will have the pleasure to discover Saint-Tropez from the sea. The walk, commented with humor and historical references, will leave you untold about the history of the village since its foundation as a Greek colony (Heraclea), until our time. You will contemplate the historical districts of the city of Bailly and the constructions that have lasted through the ages. You will also discover the mythical locations of the film shoots that made the international fame of Saint-Tropez: Et Dieu Créa la Femme, Le Gendarme de Saint-Tropez, Sous le soleil… You will be able to see other patrimonial treasures in the presence of the houses of celebrities and billionaires residing in the parks of the city!
Sainte-Maxime is a leading destination in the South of France due to its geographical location, its gentle way of life, its beaches, but also thanks to the numerous activities and events it offers throughout the year. This seaside resort is located just opposite Saint-Tropez!
Port-Grimaud is a lakeside town that is rather different from the other villages of the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. It’s nicknamed the Venice of Provence and has a fairly recent history since it was designed and built in 1966.
To visit Port-Grimaud, the ideal is to park on the parking lot outside, then discover the city on foot. You will be able to see the beautiful colored facades, while eating a good ice cream!
Château de la Messardière offers a comprehensive experience within the estate, which has been totally redesigned as a resort. You can lounge by the Château’s iconic pool or opt for the brand new sanctuary: the swim line nestled in the garden’s terraces and offering an incredible view of Pampelonne Bay.
The Byblos hotel welcomes you in a luxurious setting in the heart of the village of Saint-Tropez, for a timeless journey between Provence and the French Riviera. It’s just a little corner of paradise!
This luxury hotel is located in the heart of a lush park with exotic species and a heated swimming pool. Four Provencal farmhouses stand proudly around an elegant mansion whose architecture fits perfectly into its environment. Here you enter a bastide with a soul and a spirit…
