Our Conciergerie's Top 5

1 - Spend the day on a yacht with lunch at an iconic beach club

From the port of Saint Tropez, a yacht awaits you to leave for an exceptional day in an idyllic setting. Have breakfast on board, concocted by a private chef. The skipper will then head towards the famous Lérins Islands. For lunch, La Guérite, a famous restaurant nestled on the rocky cove of Sainte-Marguerite Island near Cannes. Our tip? Make sure to take a swimming break in the heart of Esterel's red rocks!

When To Visit Saint Tropez

Saint Tropez in Every Season

Whether it's spring or summer, with sailboats dotting the coastline, or autumn and winter, when the village is quiet, Saint Tropez will always have a specific charm.

Spring

Visit Saint Tropez in spring to experience the area as it wakes up from its winter slumber. Everything starts to open again come April and May to get ready for the very busy summer season to come.

Summer

Summer is the perfect time to experience Saint Tropez with kids and live the Brigitte Bardot and Serge Gainsbourg life, hopping between parties and the slow life in the sand and sea.

Autumn

In autumn you can take advantage of the gentle breeze and agreeable temperatures of Indian Summer. This is the ideal time to see Saint Tropez with far fewer crowds.

Winter

The more touristic side of Saint Tropez dials back during the winter months, but it's still a great place to station yourself for a visit the region of Provence and enjoy Saint Tropez like a local.
