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.
Saint-Tropez is a commune in the Var department and the region of Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, Southern France. It is 68 kilometres west of Nice and 100 kilometres east of Marseille, on the French Riviera, of which it is one of the best-known towns. As of 2023, the resident population of the commune was 3,582. The adjacent narrow body of water is the Gulf of Saint-Tropez, stretching to Sainte-Maxime to the north under the Massif des Maures.

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.
A lovely little pastel colored church built in 1820 in a perfect harmony with the surrounding buildings.
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.

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.
