Port Grimaud Holidays

The hidden gem of the French Riviera

Nestled in the Gulf of Saint-Tropez on the French Riviera, Port Grimaud is a charming waterfront village often called the “Venice of Provence” due to its network of canals and colourful buildings. Built in the 1960s, it was designed by architect François Spoerry and is now a unique, privately owned village that combines Mediterranean style with Venetian charm. You can explore the canals by electric boat or on foot across charming bridges and cobblestone streets.

Nearby, the iconic town of Saint-Tropez is only a short drive away, offering luxury shopping, dining, and nightlife. If you fancy getting some sand between your toes, the golden beaches of Port Grimaud are ideal for sunbathing and swimming, while the marina attracts yachts and sailing enthusiasts from all over. The beach of Port Grimaud is one of the most famous on the Côte d’Azur, and you can enjoy a wide range of water sports, including sailing, jet-skiing, and parasailing.

Accommodation options range from cosy apartments to luxurious waterfront villas, and the village has a selection of cafés, restaurants, and boutiques along its canal-side promenades, serving Provençal and international cuisine. Each Thursday and Sunday, the market at Place du Marché is a must visit for fresh produce, local cheeses, and handmade crafts. For a scenic and relaxing experience in the heart of the French Riviera, Port Grimaud offers a picturesque escape with easy access to the glamour of Saint-Tropez.
