The peninsula of Saint-Tropez and the bay of Canoubiers
 
The Ponche
The Pouncho (pronounced the "Pount' cho" = "the Point") was long the refuge of the fishermen of Saint-Tropez. The fishing nets dried on the quays while women re-meshed the broken nets. A sardine factory and a warehouse for salting also existed in this area. Today, it is one of the rare beaches located in a town centre: The beach of the people of Saint-Tropez and of its regular visitors! It is this mythical and charming place of Saint-Tropez which gave its name to our cruising boat "the Pouncho".

The Citadel
Its construction began in 1583 under the Duke of Provence who gave 6,000 gold ECU so that the inhabitants of Saint-Tropez would fortify their city. They were not very enthusiastic because they feared the loss of their independence with the probable presence of a royal authority within its walls. Threatened by destruction it was then rebuilt in 1607. Today it shelters the Naval Museum of Saint-Tropez and forms part of the architectural heritage of the City: priceless treasures are housed there.

The Sailors Cemetery
One of the rare cemeteries of France which resembles the least a cemetery. It dominates the bay: the view is splendid. Numerous writers evoked this exceptional place; numerous celebrities wish to be buried there.
The " Baie des Canoubiers"
In 1891 an industrialist who was looking for the ideal site to build a factory in order to break the monopoly of the underwater cable facilities that the British held, prospected the Mediterranean coast. His choice was la Baie des Canoubiers. It was therefore in Saint-Tropez that the construction of numerous underwater cables for the whole world began. Today La Baie des Canoubiers has a splendid beach and the Sailing School of Saint-Tropez. Numerous celebrities choose to live in La Baie des Canoubiers, for instance Brigitte Bardot at Madrague.
