- Vieux Port. A picturesque harbor with many beautiful yachts is one of the major attractions in the town, where all people meet together: rich and poor, locals and tourists. Typical pastel-colored houses with light yellow colored blinds on windows. A round tower of the church of Saint-Tropez can be seen from the harbor and is part of the typical view of the port of Saint-Tropez. On the quay, there are also several boutiques, tourist shops, cafes, and restaurants.
- Place de Lices. People gather there to play jeux de boules. It is a quite large square with a white sandy ground and more than hundred-year-old plane trees. It 's a cheerful atmosphere there with lots of bars, cafes, and restaurants.
- Rue Gambetta - an old cobblestoned street.
- Place de l'Ormeau - a cozy old square in the middle of an artistic boom.
- Gendarmerie. A pretty building of a police station where the Les Gendarmes de Saint-Tropez featuring Louis de Funes was filmed. No visitors are allowed, but still, people love to take photos from outside.
- Église Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption de Saint-Tropez. A lovely little pastel-colored church built in 1820 in perfect harmony with the surrounding buildings.
- La Chapelle Sainte-Anne. It was built in the 17th century in acknowledgment of protection of the town against the plague raging then across the Provence. There are some magnificent views of Saint-Tropez from the top of the chapel.
- Citadelle. A fortress dating from the sixteenth century is seen above the town. It hosts currently a naval museum.
- Musée de l'Annonciade. Near the western end of the main harbor area, L'Annonciade is a riveting collection of post-Impressionist, Fauve and other early 20th Century art. Housed in a converted church, the collection includes striking works by Matisse, Dufy, Bonnard, and Derain, as well as other early modern masters. Most of the works date between the 1890s and 1950s. In addition, the views of the town and harbor from the windows of the museum are quite distinctive.

Saint-Tropez plays a major role in the history of modern art. Paul Signac discovers this light-filled place which inspired painters like Matisse, Pierre Bonnard, and Albert Marquet to come to Saint-Tropez. The painting styles of pointillism and Fauvism emerged at Saint-Tropez. Saint-Tropez was also attractive for the next generation of painters: Bernard Buffet, David Hockney, Massimo Campigli, and Donald Sultan lived and worked there. Today, Stefan Szczesny continues this tradition.Source:

Safety in St. Tropez, France
Criminals prefer to pick on tourists because tourists are usually relaxed and not expecting anything. Avoiding being a victim is generally as simply paying attention to what you are doing, locking your car while you are in it and not flaunting your valuables. This can take the fun out of the holiday but on balance it is probably even less fun to be a crime-victim! So stay safe and enjoy the views.
