Hotels in Gulf of Saint Tropez, France

The Gulf of Saint Tropez sits on the French Riviera with a Mediterranean climate-hot, dry summers (80°F/27°C) perfect for sailing the crystal-clear sea, and mild winters (50°F/10°C) ideal for hiking to the 18th-century Citadelle for views of the gulf. Summer brings yacht parties and beach clubs at Pampelonne Beach, while winter lets you visit Saint-Tropez town without crowds, see the Musée de l'Annonciade with its post-impressionist art, or explore the hilltop village of Ramatuelle with its narrow streets. If you love watersports, try jet-skiing or paddleboarding in the calm Mediterranean waters, or hop on a ferry to Port Grimaud for its canals and colorful houses.
