The main activities in Saint-Tropez are related to the sea. These are yachting, sailing, diving, snorkeling and, of course, beach vacations. Other popular sports are golf, polo, tennis and croquet. A schedule of cultural events and festivities to be celebrated this year can be found on the city's website.
A must-do is an evening promenade along the Saint-Tropez promenade, where artists gather at sunset. Once it's dark and the painters have packed up their easels and brushes, it's best to head to the neighboring town of Saint-Maxime for nightlife.
After a noisy promenade on the dance floors, you can meet the dawn in the "French Venice" - the port of Grimaud, where boats depart from the port of Saint-Tropez in the early morning. Having sailed along the canals-streets, enjoying the truly Venetian color, you should stop at one of the cafes on the XVIII century square and cheer up with a cup of strong coffee.
After having an Italian breakfast in the port of Grimaud, it is most convenient to go to the village of Cogolin, which is just on the way. People come here for the unique handmade smoking pipes made of Mediterranean heather and carpets worthy of the halls of the Elysee Palace.
In Saint-Tropez itself, nightlife is concentrated in the coastal areas of the city. Some of the nightclubs in Saint-Tropez are open until the morning, while the rest of the establishments close around 00:00-01:00. Entertainment for adults in Saint-Tropez offers the most popular nightclubs in the city:
-Café de Paris (15, quai Suffren), where visiting celebrities can often be found on the outdoor terrace or on the chic red sofas;
- L'Esquinade dance club (2, rue du Four), popular not only with tourists but also with the local crowd;
- youth club La Bodega de Papagayo (quai d'Epi, Résidence du Port), which has both a bar and a dance floor;
The pretentious Octave Café (place de la Garonne) is a favorite with tourists looking for "something else".
