Read reviews of the best Saint-Tropez beaches
Situated at the north end of the infamous Pampelonne beach you will find that beach umbrellas and mattresses are available for a quiet afternoon in the sun by the sea.
Find loads of top tips and local insights in our Saint-Tropez Beach Clubs.
There’s a string of private beaches and restaurants along this beautiful stretch of wide sandy beach, but our lunchtime favourite is Prao Plage as they have a tender so we can arrive by boat; we just moor up in the gorgeous turquoise waters opposite, and Adile nips out to collect us - it’s only a matter of a very short sail from St Tropez, Ste Maxime, Port Grimaud or Les Issambres.
There are few experiences more Cote d’Azur than spending a summer’s day lying on a deckchair in a Saint-Tropez beach club, while handsome waiters bring you things- an icy cold magnum of rose, a plate of antipasto, a fresh fluffy towel so huge it could double as a bed sheet.
With the Easter holidays falling on the weekend of Friday 14th of April and temperatures in Saint Tropez already consistently hitting the mid-twenties, it offers a great chance to hop on down to the beach and grab some early season sunshine.
Pampelonne is a great beach to visit for the restaurants and the water-sport activities, but nothing compares to the clear waters and white sands of L’Escalet beach, which is less than a five-minute drive from Pampelonne.
