Tips & Advice
- Arrive early in the day, especially on weekends, to fully enjoy the Christmas market and ice skating before the evening crowds.
- Check the official Saint-Tropez tourism website closer to the event dates for the detailed daily schedule of performances and Santa's arrival.
- Consider using public transport or walking if possible, as parking can be challenging in Saint-Tropez during peak holiday seasons.
- Dress warmly in layers, as December evenings by the coast can be cool, even with the festive atmosphere.
- Don't miss the sound and light show on the Port; it's a breathtaking spectacle that truly captures the holiday spirit.
