Saint-Tropez — who hasn’t heard of it?
For some, it’s an absolute must when visiting the Côte d’Azur; others prefer to avoid it due to the heavy crowds during peak season.
Since the mid-1950s, Saint-Tropez has been the summer retreat and "place to be" for the jet set and beau monde.
Its unique atmosphere and charm attract an estimated five million tourists each year. No surprise then that it gets extremely busy, especially from mid-June to mid-September.Driving into Saint-Tropez often means sitting in long traffic jams, only to find there's no parking space left.
So what's the better option? Park your car in Port Grimaud or Sainte-Maxime and take the ferry to Saint-Tropez.
The ‘bateau vert’ runs several times an hour, saving you traffic, parking stress and frustration.
And on a hot summer day, the refreshing breeze on the boat makes it a joy. Once ashore, the people-watching begins… Amusez-vous
