A picturesque harbor with many beautiful yachts is one of the major attractions in the town, where all people meet together: rich and poor, locals and tourists. Typical pastel colored houses with light yellow colored blinds on windows. A round tower of the church of Saint-Tropez can be seen from the harbor and is part of the typical view of the port of Saint-Tropez. On the quay there are also several boutiques, tourist shops, cafes and restaurants.
People gather there to play jeux de boules. It is a quite large square with a white sandy ground and more than a hundred year old plane trees. It has cheerful atmosphere with lots of bars, cafes and restaurants.
An old cobblestoned street.
A cozy old square in the middle of an artistic boom.
A pretty building of a police station where the Les Gendarmes de Saint-Tropez featuring Louis de Funes was filmed. It is now a museum that will allow you to discover the history of the building and of the cinema in St Tropez.
A lovely little pastel colored church built in 1820 in a perfect harmony with the surrounding buildings.
It was built in the 17th century in acknowledgement of a protection of the town against the plague raging then across the Provence. There are some magnificent views of Saint-Tropez from the top of chapel.
A fortress dating from the 16th century is seen above the town. It hosts a naval museum.
Near the western end of the main harbor area, L'Annonciade is a riveting collection of post-Impressionist, Fauve and other early 20th century art. Housed in a converted church, the collection includes striking works by Matisse, Dufy, Bonnard and Derain, as well as other early modern masters. The most of the works date between 1890s and 1950s. In addition, the views of the town and harbor from the windows of the museum are quite distinctive.
The most famous beach of Saint Tropez with some fancy clubs.
It's in Les Marines de Gassin, 6 km from the town centre of Gassin. Sits on a private park giving directly onto a sand beach. Has a swimming pool/lagoon. 100 m from the harbour and small shops, 600 m from the shopping centre.
