Symbol of freedom and glamor of the 60s

Saint-Tropez: Capital of the Jet-Set

Saint-Tropez was originally a modest Provençal fishing port, famous for its defense against Barbary attacks in the 16th century. The city experienced its cultural revolution in the 1950s and 60s, notably thanks to Brigitte Bardot who filmed “And God… Created Woman” on site, making Saint-Tropez the symbol of freedom and carefreeness. The transformation of this small village into an international destination happened gradually, attracting artists, writers and celebrities from all over the world.

Many tourist sites make it famous for Saint-Tropez. The marina, where luxury yachts and traditional yachts rub shoulders, tells the maritime history of the city. The Citadel offers an extraordinary panorama of the gulf. Beaches like Pampelonne have contributed to the international reputation of the destination. The Provençal market and the alleys of the historic center allow you to discover Provençal authenticity.
