Big hats, bronzed bodies and loads of money – the very basics that keep people booking flights to St. Tropez are the same things that put St. Tropez on the map. The world-renowned French Riviera resort, where tiny bikinis line the beaches and acts of indulgence are sometimes sinful, continues to thrive today as a major tourist destination. Once a hot-spot for Hollywood celebrities, today’s St. Tropez vacationers are just as posh and lavish as the starlets who vacationed here in the 1930s. Private flights to St. Tropez are as frequent as the dozens of yachts that dock along the marinas every day. Never does a day go by without a champagne cork popping at sea in St. Tropez. Enjoy the indulgence of this French island and take a trip to St. Tropez – if the fashion and flamboyance doesn’t lure you, the people surely will.
