St Tropez is famous for its beaches. Close to the harbour, below the citadel is the quiet Plage des Graniers, with a nice beach restaurant. The world famous Pampelonne Beach is a long 5km stretch of fine sand, lined by trendy beach clubs.

It is quite wonderful to walk around the old town of St Tropez, explore its narrow streets and quaint plazas. Do not miss the legendary Place des Lices (lovely square, framed with plane trees and cafés), the Italian baroque style Église de St-Tropez quintessential landmark built in 1785 and the tiny La Ponche harbour. Walk up to the 17th century citadel that dominates the hillside and enjoy the fantastic panoramic views of the bay.
