Charming old village famous for the manufacturing of cork and pipes
Cogolin is a charming old village in the hills above Saint Tropez. There is also Port Cogolin which is a modern, purpose-built marina filled by beautiful boats.
Cogolin, like so many villages in this part of the world, is a town of several parts and with several distinct characters.
The old town is located several kilometres back from the coast, whilst down by the sea there are two marina villages - Port Cogolin is the older, smaller (and more charming) port, whereas Marines de Cogolin is a more modern 'seaside village' with a large yacht port and the feel of a created but pleasant Provençal-style town.
The older part of Cogolin is built on a small hill (cougoul) where the main town hall square is located, plus the clock tower and cemetery.
The town has lots of the little smoking pipe shops that Cogolin is famous for, as well as other crafts such as carpet-weaving, reeds for musical instruments, pottery and ceramics.
Down on the coast the ports of Cogolin are full of cafés, restaurants and boutiques, good for a wander and a long lunch looking out over the yachts. Many events are held throughout the year in Cogolin such as exhibitions, flea markets, concerts and festivals, giving this Provençal village-of-three-parts a very welcoming feel.
The Brocante (or flea market) Le Jas des Robert has become a must-see place for the bargain hunters of the Golfe de Saint-Tropez.
The old town is dominated by a 14th century clock tower on the hill, which is all that remains from the Wars of Religion when everything else was destroyed.
Of interest is also the 16th century Saint-Sauveur (Saint-Etienne church), which has a restored sundial on it with a Provençal inscription which reads "We each have our own sun".
As you wander through the town you'll also notice many dual street name signs with both the ancient and modern names, the most amusing of which is the Rue Rompe Cul, meaning 'fall on your butt'. Why? Because it was the steepest street. It's a common street name in France when there's worn, slippery cobblestones to be navigated.
There's also the Raimu Museum celebrating the French actor's film career and the Templier Museum exploring the history of the Knights Templar in Provence.
Cogolin's 14th century hilltop clock tower is all of what is left of its original castle, which was destroyed in 1579 during the Religious Wars. It now dominates the town creating an imposing view.
Situated on a hilltop dominating the town, this medieval castle boasts absolutely breathtaking panoramic views over the Maures massif and the Saint-Tropez gulf.
There is a beach at Les Marines-des Cogolin which has golden sands and watersports (including sailing lessons) and a lovely view of Saint Tropez. It also has picnic tables, snack bar beach volleyball and a beach restaurant.
La Bouillabaisse is a more low-key option to the swanky beach clubs on Pampelonne beach and is situated closer to the town of Saint Tropez.
Plage de la Ponche and its neighbour Plage de la Fontanette are two lovely beaches which you can access directly from the heart of the village.
Plage des Graniers is a beautiful, small sandy bay surrounded by greenery and a few Provençal villas.
Pampelonne Beach is the beach most people associate with Saint-Tropez. This is where you will find the A-listers, the famous beach clubs, and the super yachts resting in the bay.
This beach is situated around the coastline from Plage des Graniers, and sits close to the main road of Route des Salins, so access from St-Tropez town is fairly easy.
The coastline between Cape Taillat and Cape Camarat is a succession of pretty little beaches, coves and rocky inlets, with translucent waters over the polished rocks or golden sands.
When it comes to nightlife, Port Cogolin has a few small clubs and late opening bars by the marinas, but in reality, nearby Saint Tropez is the destination for a spectacular night out.
A lot of the activities around Cogolin are water-based, including sailing, chartering a boat for the day or relaxing on the nearby beach.
With the thickly forested Maures hills rising up behind the town, there are also great hiking opportunities such as the GR51 'Balcony de Côte d'Azur' long range hiking trail that passes by Cogolin, plus other walking and mountain-biking trails within this forest.
When it comes to organised activities, there's mini-golf, tennis and bike hire along the coast. For entertainment, there's the theme park Azure Park at nearby Gassin, with rollercoasters, waterslides and a ferris wheel.
