St. Tropez (Saint-Tropez) is a small charming town on the French Riviera. It is located southwest of Cannes and is a popular tourist destination. The drive along the Mediterranean coast between Cannes and St. Tropez is scenic and most enjoyable in the spring. During the peak summer months is crowded and not recommended because of the heavy traffic.

The Bay of Pampelone (Baie de Pampelonne) has beautiful beaches along its 5 kilometers shore line. The beaches offer canoeing and windsurfing equipment for rent, powerboats, water skiing and almost every water sport is available here.

In the 1970 the Le gendarme de Saint-Tropez movie series starring Louis de Funès made St. Tropez famous worldwide. Today the Saint-Tropez marina is full of yachts and boats and many celebrities can be spotted there.
