Saint-Tropez
is a town dedicated to
Art, Culture and Tradition
Saint-Tropez
is a myth everyone dreams
about. The village remains the unavoidable destination for famous
people, sea lovers, History, Art and Heritage addicts.
A high
standard world known events programme runs all the year round,
contributing to building the legend of the town.
But apart
from all those festive moments, Saint
Tropez remains a small fishing
village.
Follow them along the colourful alleys, the Provençal market
where you will find all the local products which have made the
reputation of the village, the XVIth Century Citadel, and the famous
Annonciade Museum.
The coastal path, the visit to the wine
domains or the hilltop villages of Gassin
and Ramatuelle,
are so many
ideas for an original trip.
Port of Saint Tropez
Before 1914
Saint-Tropez
was the main commercial port of France. The port was widely used during
the 18th century; in 1789, the port was visited by 80 ships.
Saint-Tropez’s
shipyards built tartanes and three-masted ships that carried 1000 to
12200 barels. The town was the site of various associated trades,
including fishing, cork, wine, wood. The town had a school of
hydrography.
In 1860 the floret of the merchant marine, named "The Queen of the
Angels" (a three-masted ship of 740 barrels), visited this port.
Its role as a commercial port declined, and it is now primarily a
tourist spot.
Economy
One of the main economic resources of
Saint-Tropez is
tourism.
Saint-Tropez is
well known for the Hôtel Byblos (and Les Caves du Roy), a
member of the Leading Hotels of the World, whose inauguration with
Brigitte Bardot and Gunter Sachs in 1967 was an international event.
Events
Saint-Tropez "le
vieux port" (the old port)
Each year, in early October, a regatta is held in the bay of
Saint-Tropez. This
is a draw for many yachts, some up to 50 metres in length. Many
tourists come to the location for this event or as a stop on their trip
to Cannes, Marseille or Nice.
[edit] Beaches
Tropezien beaches are located along the coast in the Baie de Pampelonne
also know by the residents as Grania (pronounced granny-ay), which lies
south of
Saint-Tropez
and east of Ramatuelle. Pampelonne offers a collection of beaches along
its five kilometre shore. Each beach is around thirty metres wide with
its own beach hut and private or public tanning area.
Many of the beaches offer windsurfing, sailing and canoeing equipment
for rent, while others offer motorized water sports, such as power
boats, jet bikes and water skiing.
Some of the private beaches are naturist beaches.
