The world's largest travel website, Trip Advisor, have revealed their 2017 Travellers' Choice Awards for Best Beaches. Unsurprisingly, two of Saint Tropez' beaches have reached the top 10 in France.

Escalet beach is at number 8 and the infamous long stretch of white sand that is Plage de Plampelonne comes in at number 10.
