With several private and public beaches to choose from, some of the most well-known beaches include the Plage de Pampelonne, the backdrop for the iconic 1956 film starring Brigitte Bardot, “And God Created Woman”, and the exclusive Tahiti Plage, home to the VIP beach club Tahiti. Spanning 5km, Plage de Pampelonne is the largest in St Tropez and home to the popular Club 55 beachside restaurant and club.

A smaller beach within walking distance of the harbour also worth visiting is Plage de la Bouillabaisse.
