St-Tropez

St-Tropez or St-Trop, the town’s popular name, is one of the Riviera’s greatest tourist meccas. This unusual holiday resort attracts in the high season in August no less than 100,000 visitors. Provacances offers holiday houses in the nearby beach resorts, Ste-Maxime, St-Aygulf, Fréjus and Les Issambres and in the little medieval village, Grimaud. St-Tropez lies in beautiful verdant countryside in the fantastic Golfe St-Tropez. The coastline of St-Tropez has fine sandy beaches with all sorts of water sports available.

En savoir plus sur St-Tropez

It was the artist Paul Signac (1863-1935), who discovered St-Tropez in 1892, at the time, just a little idyllic fishing hamlet. He was seduced by the untouched idyll of the place, and he both painted and wrote about the wonderful motives he saw. It was through him the world heard about St-Tropez. In the fifties the peaceful fishing hamlet was rediscovered by film stars and other celebrities like Brigitte Bardot and Françoise Sagan, who, in the years after, brought with them all the jet set.

The town’s greatest sight is without any doubt the old port and the quay, Jean-Jaurès, with its old pastel coloured fishing houses. In the port one can still see the old fishing boats side by side with the huge luxury yachts. Behind the outdoor cafés along the harbour is the wonderful charming old quarter with its narrow busy streets and pleasant squares with small shops and restaurants. Behind Quai Suffren is Place des Lices, a big square full of cafés and the centre for local inhabitants’ pétanque competitions. The town’s Baroque church from the 19th century is beautiful with its remarkable yellow tower at the top. At the top of St-Tropez there is an impressive hexagonal citadel from the 16th century, home for the Musée Naval de St-Tropez. From here, there are breathtaking views over the rooftops and the bay beneath.
