Saint-Tropez

Saint-Tropez needs 1 day: touring the old harbor with its luxury yachts and Place des Lices, in the morning, and heading down to one of the Pampelonne beaches, in the afternoon. June-September brings ideal beach weather. It's among the priciest in France, synonymous with luxury for decades. It was a fishing village until Brigitte Bardot filmed «And God Created Woman» there in 1956, which catapulted it overnight to the center of the international scene, and it has remained the jet set's go-to destination on the French Riviera ever since.
