Cimetière Marin Saint-Tropez: Visitor Guide to Saint-Tropez
The Cimetière marin de Saint-Tropez is a free, open-air hillside cemetery below the Citadelle, looking out over the Golfe de Saint-Tropez. Come for the sea view, the white graves of the old captains' section and the famous names, from Brigitte Bardot to Henri Manguin.
Citadelle de Saint-Tropez: Museum, Tickets and Visiting Tips
The Citadelle de Saint-Tropez is a seventeenth-century fortress above the old town, holding the Musée d'histoire maritime and a rampart walk with a wide view over the baie de Saint-Tropez. Entry is modest, guided tours run in French by reservation, and a visit fits neatly into half a day alongside the Vieux Port.
La Ponche, Saint-Tropez: The Old Fishermen's Quarter Guide
La Ponche is the old fishing quarter at the western edge of Saint-Tropez's old town: a few narrow lanes, ochre houses and a small cove with the citadel above. Allow 30 to 60 minutes for a slow wander, treat the cove as a swim-and-look stop rather than a beach day, and use the Place des Lices market mornings to frame a loop through the old town.
Musée de l'Annonciade, Saint-Tropez: Visiting Guide
A small modern art museum on the edge of Saint-Tropez's old port, built on the legacy of Paul Signac and the painters who followed him south. Here is what hangs inside, how the seasons change the opening hours, what tickets cost and how much time to allow.
Place des Lices, Saint-Tropez: Market Days and What to See
Place des Lices is the square at the heart of Saint-Tropez, and its Provençal market runs on Tuesday and Saturday mornings. Plan your morning around the food stalls, leave time for the antiques and crafts, and treat the rest of the day as a separate, slower visit.
Saint-Tropez Port: Visiting the Vieux Port Harbour
Saint-Tropez port is the Vieux Port, a working harbour wrapped around the foot of the old village. Here is where it sits, how to reach it on foot, what to look at along the quays and how much of your day it deserves.
