Marinas and moorings in Saint-Tropez

Discover the top Saint-Tropez moorings

With a beguiling mix of old wooden sailing masts and gleaming superyachts, the beautiful fishing village of Saint Tropez is perhaps the most famous yacht marina in the world.

Saint Tropez is a very splendid village, and its marina is an exciting place to be. However, given the competition and steep prices of a midsummer berth in Saint Tropez, you’ll often find that some of the neighbouring marinas offer a cheaper and more low-key experience (with the same great access to the stunning beaches and medieval villages of Provence).

Weekly Charters Day Charters Fishing Charters

The Port de Saint Tropez runs right along the cobbled water-front of this chic town, so you can step right off your boat and into the cool sophistication of Hotel de Paris or sip a glass of rose in one of the other pavement cafes . Or perhaps you’d like to have a Provencal lunch in a shady restaurant courtyard beneath the grape vines, followed by an afternoon spent shopping in the town’s glamorous boutiques .

Whatever floats your boat, Saint Tropez is a very special and memorable place to berth your vessel. It can also be quite a pricey one, with berth rates ranging between 27 euro per night for a 5m boat, to 2,894 euro for a 70m boat to come into port for a night.

As you might imagine, it can be tough finding a berth in Saint Tropez in summer. There’s just one marina in Saint Tropez proper, but if you can’t nab a spot there are some good marinas nearby, such as the well-protected Cogolin marina, Port Grimaud (‘the Venice of Provence’) and the relaxed seaside town of Cavalaire-sur-Mer.

Moorings & marinas

Port de Saint Tropez The most glittering of marinas, Port de Saint Tropez , is relatively small, with 734 berths for yachts up to 50 metres in length, and a maximum draft of 6 metres. This is the only marina in Saint Tropez proper and berths are extremely sought after. The celebrity clientele ensures that the port’s level of service is high and that there are all the necessary amenities, from a dedicated business area, concierge or ‘groom’ service, WiFi subscription, fuel dock, free waste water pump-out and electricity etc. Saint-Tropez harbour also has two terraces on the Jean Réveille Pier which are available for hire for special events.

There is a sailing club in the port called the Societe de Nautique de Saint Tropez . Saint Tropez is the venue of 17 sailing events throughout the year, of which 6 are major regattas. In late September/early October, the Port de Saint Tropez hosts the last classic sailing regatta of the season, Les Voiles de Saint Tropez , transforming this already desperately pretty marina into a magnificent display of old wooden yachts, which race across the bay in the daytime under billowing cream sails before returning to port to a huge party at night. It’s quite a spectacle.

You can book your Saint Tropez berth online. The website also has an English version.

Marina de Port Grimaud Marina de Port Grimaud is a quite extraordinary marina on the Gulf of Saint Tropez, with over 2000 berths over three marinas connected by a quite charming network of canals, bridges and man-made islands. Often likened to Venice for its canal layout, this port was designed in 1967 by an architect who decided he wanted to build a marina and Provencal village on seaside canals in the South. While most of the berths are privately owned, several hundred are reserved for casual stays. The marinas can admit yachts up to 30 metres, but the majority of berths are for small vessels. You’ll find lots of shops, restaurants and services in the village- or you can just grab an ice-cream from a waterfront parlour and wander the network of canals. If you’re looking to explore the area, the old town of Grimaud is a perched village a few kilometres inland, with ancient links to the famous Grimaldi family- now the ruling family of Monaco. Port Grimaud is seven kilometres from Saint Tropez.

Marines de Cogolin Like Port Grimaud, the Marines de Cogolin is the sea port of a perched village a few kilometres inland. Another new port built to take advantage of the burgeoning leisure yacht industry, Cogolin is a very large port, with capacity for 1600 boats with a maximum length of 50 metres. The average depth is 4 metres. The marina is set over three large basins, and its position at the mouth of an inlet makes this a very sheltered marina during bad weather spells. The marina has a shipyard, chandlery, Laundromat, wifi, boat rentals, and all the usual services.

The complex also has shops, restaurants and services surrounding the marina, as well as a sailing school, swimming pool, diving school and tennis courts.

Port de Plaisance de Cavalaire Cavalaire is a relaxed and modern seaside town near Saint Tropez, but with none of its bling. With lots of great beaches, affordable restaurants and friendly locals, this is as far as you can get from Saint Tropez while still being close by. The Port de Plaisance de Cavalaire has 570 places over 5 pontoons and a main quay, catering to vessels up to 20m and with a 6m draft. There are basic services such as water and electricity on the dock, toilets and showers, and 24/7 marina security.

Port de Sainte Maxime This smaller port near Saint Tropez has 375 berths, catering to vessels up to 25m long. Port de Sainte Maxime has basic services such as electricity, water and a fuel dock, this is another low-key marina in a town with a family friendly vibe.

About Port de Saint Tropez

The Port de Saint Tropez marina, with its range of innovative services, is one of the most famous harbors in the world. The marina is designed for 734 berths, located on an area of 9 hectares - in two basins divided by the Epi promenade. Located on the south coast of the Gulf of Saint-Tropez, this marina is central to the coastal village, known throughout the world and is one of the best options for booking a yacht parking in the French Riviera. The once modest marina for small fishing boats today has become one of the most modern and famous gathering places for yachtsmen from around the world.

Port de Saint Tropez yacht parking can offer a range of services, including:

• Summing up electricity;
• Toilet, shower;
• A restaurant;
• Self-service laundry;
• Coast security;
• Pumping wastewater;
• Tanks for waste oil.

In high season, car traffic along the coastal track can be extremely intense. Hotels, like marinas in the port, are booked in advance. Tipping is a must, especially if you want to return. On both sides of the marina are numerous beaches, the most famous of which is Pampelonne, which houses the Club 55 and Tahiti Beach beach restaurants. If you prefer to avoid crowds of vacationers, it is worth exploring other options, including - Plages La Glaye, La Ponche and de la Fontarette.

Port de Saint Tropez today is one of the symbols of French luxury, while the port of Saint-Tropez retains the charm of past years.

If you want to try the signature flavors of port, we recommend the Le Girelier restaurant (Quai Jean Jaures), where you can try dishes made from fresh catch. If you want to try more exotic cuisine, head to Quai de l'Epi Lane, where you will find the excellent Indian restaurant Gandhi. And, of course, if you just want to make yourself an ice break in the middle of summer, try the delicious ice cream in Barbarac (rue du Général Allard).

Port de Saint Tropez Pier is an ideal berth booking option for sailors who want to receive exclusive service and maximum comfort. Luxury motor yachts and sailboats feel at home here. Be sure to pay attention to the Societe Nautique et Sportive de Saint-Tropez yacht club, which has been leading its history since 1899 - the largest number of lovers of sea travel gather here at the end of September for the legendary regatta Les Voiles de Saint Tropez.

Beach Club & Restaurant - st-tropez

The original beach club of St Tropez

Restaurants abound along Pampelonne Beach, but those in the know make a beeline for Le Club 55. Classy, discreet and effortlessly chic, the legendary establishment is one of St Tropez’s oldest beach clubs, with infinite appeal among the rich and famous.

A simple fishing hut in the early 1950s, Le Club 55 was adopted as a canteen by the crew filming And God Created Woman , the Bardot movie that put St Tropez on the world stage in 1956.

Today a forest of bamboo surrounds a typically Provencal beach bungalow, with white canopies and a lavish beach club jutting all the way to the Mediterranean . Le Club 55 even has its own wooden jetty, luring well-heeled travelers away from their superyachts anchored off-shore.

Arrive by tender and make the ultimate entrance as other patrons cannot help but take notice, whether they’re sipping Cristal on loungers by the water’s edge or feasting on seafood in the main restaurant.

Infinite appeal among the rich and famous

Classy, discreet and effortlessly chic, the legendary establishment is one of St Tropez’s oldest beach clubs

Tables dressed simply in white create a refined setting in which to dine on simple yet exquisite Mediterranean fare. Appetizers like tuna carpaccio, breaded calamari and Beluga Caviar are some of the best on the beach, while heartier entrees like the beef filet and pasta dishes are aptly portioned without sending people back to their loungers with bloated bellies.

An array of lunch salads offering seafood twists to traditional field greens and market-fresh produces are by far the most popular, however. There are two sittings for lunch, the second of which is better for a longer, relaxed experience on Pampelonne Beach during your St Tropez yacht charter .

10 classic sailing yachts competing at Les Voiles de Saint Tropez

Les Voiles de Saint Tropez marks the last event on the Mediterranean racing calendar and is heralded as one of the most prestigious regattas in the world. In its 24th year, the regatta will take place across two weeks from September 24 to October 8, with the first welcoming all classic yachts and modern boats up to 18 metres in length, before the Maxis take to the water in week two. As the competition gets underway, we a look at the line-up of classic schooners and wooden yawls getting ready to race...

Shenandoah of Sark 

Length : 55m Builder : Townsend & Downey

Shenandoah of Sark has welcomed high-profile aristocrats, Hollywood heavyweights and even royalty on board since her launch in 1902, which makes her one of the oldest superyachts still sailing today. She was built as a triple-masted wooden schooner with a 13 metre bowsprit and she flies 2,646 square metres of sail. While she is a born racer, Shenandoah of Sark has enjoyed more leisurely cruising over the years, and has circumnavigated as far as Norway, Madagascar and the remote shores of South Georgia. A crew of 12 operates her day-to-day, but in race mode she can be manned by as many as 30 crew. 

Length : 55m Builder : FNM

Elena is a replica of a 1910 sailing yacht by the same name and her design pays tribute to the golden age of sail. The original Elena was designed by Nat Herreshoff to win the 1928 Transatlantic Race where she sailed from New York to Santander in record time. She has been built with racing bones and her crew has collected plenty of silverware since her launch - Elena has won Antigua Classic Week, Les Voiles de St Tropez and Monaco Classic Week. Elena is currently for sale .

Length : 41.15m Builder : Fife

Cambria was commissioned by newspaper magnate Sir William Berry and delivered in 1928. After enjoying fifty years on the racing circuit she eventually fell off the radar. She was assumed to have been destroyed, like many sailing yachts of her time, in the Second World War but was rediscovered in Australia in the 1990's and restored to her former glory. After her rebuild, there was no doubt now that Cambria once again fulfils Fife’s basic requirement of a yacht – that she be both “fast and bonnie”.

Length :  39m Builder : GraafShip

Built in 2013, Naema is a beautiful example of a modern classic designed by Olivier F. van Meer and based upon by an Alfred Mylne schooner named Panda that sank in 1983 after a fire ravaged her to her waterline. Naema was built at Graafship in Turkey and underwent a significant refit in 2014 which saw her plumbing, engines and technical equipment removed and replaced. She is a regatta regular having competed at The Superyacht Cup, The Candy Store Cup and the Inaugural Capri Classica.

Length : 33.52m Builder : Feadship

Iduna is a rare example of a classic Feadship sailing yacht. She was delivered in 1939 and remained the largest yacht to leave the Dutch shipyard until 1960. She has been refitted several times throughout her life including one that saw her rig changed from a gaff ketch to a Bermudan ketch. Most notably, she underwent a full restoration in 1999 led by Dutchman Johan van den Bruele. He was determined to preserve as much of the original vessel as possible, including the main mast, skylights, deck saloon, compass, anchor winch and steering wheel. Any new parts that were required were built using traditional boatbuilding methods to stay true to her original build. Iduna is currently for sale .

Length :  38.4m Builder : Elco

Puritan is one of the most notable schooners ever built and her history is well-documented. Since her construction in 1930, she has served active duty in the US Navy during World War Two, sailed between Nova Scotia and Cape Horn and even acted as a research vessel for the American Museum of Natural History on which a new mollusc was discovered and named Puritanina harribaueri in tribute. Puritan is a gaff-rigged schooner designed by legendary American designer John Alden. She has had a number of owners throughout her life and has been refitted several times (and even saved from the scrap heap on one occasion). She went on to become a regatta regular on the Mediterranean circuit.

Length : 28.65m Builder : Fife

Sumurun was commissioned in 1914 by a baroness as a gift to her husband and is one of the oldest competing yachts in this year's Les Voiles de Saint Tropez. She was built using teak and oak by Scottish shipyard Fife and hailed as one of the swiftest and most beautiful yachts afloat. Sumurun ’s story is filled with vivid personalities, a multitude of racing victories including the overall win at Antigua Classics Week in 2013, and an elegance that has transcended the vagaries of over a century on the water.

Hallowe'en

Length :  24.69 Builder : Fife

Hallowe'en was launched in 1926 as a Bermudan cutter, which was uncommon in the days when gaff-rigged racers dominated the various regattas. Her owners continued to experiment with her rig and eventually, she was transformed to a yawl. Hallowe'en spent many years racing the Mediterranean and the Atlantic before falling off the radar. She was later discovered by Walter Wheeler and renamed Cotton Blosson IV before continuing her history of ocean racing and eventually being donated to the Classic Boat Museum in Rhode Island where she awaited a much-needed refit. After five years of work in Newport, funds dried up and Hallowe’en was facing the scrap heap when Elizabeth Meyer, the woman behind the restoration of  J Class Endeavour helped find a buyer to restore her to her former glory. 

Aschanti IV

Length : 34.8m Builder : Burmester

Aschanti IV is a staysail schooner built in 1954 as Aschanti of Saba. She is a veteran of the world's classic yacht regattas and has won on many occasions including an overall win in the 2022 Antigua Classics Regatta. A thorough refit by Lürssen in 1994 saw the installation of up-to-date technology including hydraulic winches and two 36.5 metre spruce masts. What started as an upgrade swiftly became a full rebuild as every attempt was made to reconstruct the boat using traditional boat-building techniques. This included riveting her original steel plates back in place.

Length : 24.08m Builder : Fife

Mariella was built at the Fife shipyard in 1938 to a design by Alfred Mylne and delivered as a Bermudan yawl. Her mainmast stands 28 metres tall and she flies 279 square metres of sail. She has been owned for many years by Carlo Falcone, proprietor of the Antigua Yacht Club Marina, and has raced in many classic regattas on both sides of the Atlantic over the last 75 years. She is a regular competitor at the Antigua Classic Yacht Regatta and this year, at Les Voiles de Saint Tropez, she is joined by her fellow Fife builds Hallowe'en, Cambria and Sumurun.
