The best St Tropez beach clubs 2025

1. Verde Beach by Yeeels

Headed up by trendy hospitality brand Yeeels, Verde Beach was one of the newest outposts to storm the scene for visiting St Tropez yacht charters in 2019. 

This boho-chic restaurant and strip of beach has since established itself as the best place to go if you’re looking for a laid-back lunch that has the potential to transform into a buzzing party scene at a moment’s notice. 

Tables at the restaurant are highly coveted with a delicious menu on offer, including a Varoise table with an enticing selection of locally sourced produce. 

Following an indulgent meal, motor yacht charter guests can take a stroll outside and set up shop on one of the sunloungers overlooking the sea. Take a dip, top up your tan, or order a cocktail; the mojitos are not to be missed. 

The hip younger sister of the archetypal beach club, Verde Beach is where the St Tropez insiders come to feast, rest, and play all under one roof. Reservations are strongly advised.

3. Byblos Beach

An offshoot of the legendary Hotel Byblos which was initially established to woo Brigitte Bardot, Byblos Beach is the place to go for a stylish but laid-back experience on the legendary Pampelonne beach. 

This beachfront offering is wall-to-wall with models, A-listers, and France yacht charter guests in search of a lazy lunch onshore. It takes interior cues from a castaway theme but dresses it up with tables draped in white linen and perfectly plated dishes.

The menu is full of star billings with Byblos also excelling with deserts. The strawberry pavlova is easily large enough to share- split it with a Tart Tropezienne, a St Tropez staple that has been given a Byblos upgrade under the executive chef.
