Hello,

I'm looking at going to the South of France in May 2013.

If this sounds of interest send me a message. Look forward to hearing from you.

A little bit about Saint-Tropez! It is a small fishing village full of charming winding medieval streets and traditional pastel-painted fishermen’s cottages, boutiques and restaurants. In the port you will find fishing boats moored alongside mega-yachts.

Saint-Tropez boasts a number of beaches the most famous being Pampelonne beach which stretches for some 3 miles and boasts beach clubs including Club 55, Nikki Beach &Tahiti Beach and is the place to party. Plages La Glaye, La Ponche and de la Fontanette are three small beaches fronting the oldest part of St Tropez village.

The main shopping event in St Tropez is the morning market on the Place du Lices, every Tuesday and Saturday. Watch the locals going to the market with baskets to do their daily shopping and pick yourself a bargain.

Across the Saint-Tropez Bay, Port Grimaud is known as the Venice of Provence. This Venetian style lagoon village is arranged into four little islands, each joined by canals and bridges of wood or stone. There are plenty of shady squares, shops and restaurants. There is even a market on Thursdays and Sundays. Visitors can be transported around by barge (coche d’eau) or you can hire your own little boat and cruise around the waterways.

Port Grimaud has its own large sandy beach with a variety of water sports facilities. The beach faces St Tropez and the view is particularly stunning at sunset.

Although St Tropez is known for its famous and wealthy summertime guests - it has been dubbed the 'playground to jetsetters, fashion models, and millionaires', it can be done reasonably on a budget. 

Happy Holidays :)
