Saint-Tropez: Where Glamour Meets the Sea
From a humble fishing village to the world's most famous beach destination. Where Brigitte Bardot made sunbathing an art form and where superyachts line the harbor like gleaming white pearls.
Why You Need a Private Driver for Saint-Tropez
Getting to Saint-Tropez is notoriously difficult. In high season, the D98 road becomes a parking lot – a 30-minute drive can take 3+ hours. Parking costs €40-50/day and is often full by 10 AM.
With ECOFUNDRIVE, you arrive relaxed. Your driver knows the secret routes through the back country villages (La Garde-Freinet, Grimaud) and can drop you directly at your beach club or restaurant. No stress, no parking, pure paradise.
Place des Lices: The Heart of Tropezian Life
This is where Saint-Tropez's soul beats. Under century-old plane trees, locals play pétanque (French bocce) while the world's elite sip rosé at the legendary Café des Arts or Sénéquier.
Insider Tip: The Provençal market on Tuesday and Saturday mornings is unmissable. Arrive early (before 9 AM) for the authentic atmosphere before the crowds. Your driver can drop you off and pick you up with your baskets full of local delicacies.
The Legendary Pampelonne Beaches
3 miles of pristine white sand lined with the world's most famous beach clubs. Choose your vibe:
Club 55
The original, since 1955. Chic family atmosphere, legendary Niçoise salad, and a discreet A-list clientele. Reservations essential in summer.
Nikki Beach
The daytime party temple. DJ sets, champagne showers, international party crowd. The place to see and be seen.
La Plage des Jumeaux
More relaxed and family-friendly, with refined Mediterranean cuisine. Perfect for a peaceful day away from the buzz.
Hidden Gems of The Gulf
Don't limit yourself to Saint-Tropez! The gulf is full of treasures:
- Port Grimaud: The "Provence Venice" with colorful houses and canals. Electric boat trips recommended.
- Ramatuelle: A perched village with plunging views over the gulf and authentic medieval streets.
- Gassin: Classified among France's most beautiful villages, 360° panorama.
With a half-day at your disposal, explore these jewels at your own pace.
