An unforgettable moment

Join our sommelier expert guide and our english captain from Port Grimaud (from Saint-Tropez or Les Marines de Cogolin on request and at an additional cost) for a unique trip aboard our traditional fishing boat, a 1h45 excursion to Saint-Tropez. Handcrafted by master shipwrights, each pointu is unique, and ours certainly is.
Admire the Presqu’île coastline between Port Grimaud and Saint-Tropez and taste our Presqu’île rosé wines (or others on request) in the company of our sommelier.

 

Enter the little port of Saint-Tropez and admire the colorful facades and magnificent bell church of our village famous all around the world. We continue on our way to the beaches of Saint-Tropez*: Plage de la Glaye, Plage de la Ponche, Plage des Graniers, the morning cemetery where Eddy Barclay, Roger Vadim and Brigitte Bardot’s parents are buried… and one superb villa after another.

 

*The itinerary of the tour can vary depending on the weather.

.

Enjoy the moment with family, friends or colleagues (maximum 6 people on board). Ideal for a birthday, a honeymoon, or simply a 100% made-in-Saint-Tropez experience. A cheese and cold meat platter is available on board, and a vegetarian or sugar options is available on the time of booking.

You can also choose to include a swim stop on the way back (without going to the beaches, as our boat is not fast and we can’t offer both).

 

Port Grimaud is a must-see and one of the largest marinas on the Côte d’Azur. Inspired by Venice and Provence, you’ll find yourself immersed in the heart of canals, bridges, houses lined with boats… Hence the nickname “Little Venice of the South”. The atmosphere is warm and colourful.

In 1962, an architect decided to build a lakeside town on a marsh in the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. More than 1,000 fishermen’s houses were built, each with access to the sea and a ring for their boat. This innovative idea caught on, and Port Grimaud became a must-see destination on the Côte d’Azur. Today, lovers of the town and its inhabitants want to preserve the charm of its colourful houses, narrow streets and heritage.

 

Thibault touzeau, blogueur (Travel Me Happy) shares with you his experience onboard our pointu :

 

“After the 2CV ride, it’s off to Port Grimaud to board a pointu in the company of Sonia from Beyond The Wine, who organises trips at sea with rosé tastings and local specialities. The pointu is the traditional Provencal boat par excellence. It’s a convivial and truly unforgettable experience, especially at the end of the day, when the sun lights up the colourful facades of Saint Tropez and Port Grimaud!”  Click here to read the full article “Sur la Route des vins de Provence”
