Club 55

An outright institution of Pampelonne, Club 55 embodies the Tropezian beach club in its most timeless form. Born in the 1950s, it has kept the relaxed elegance that made its legend: raw wooden tables, generous baskets of crudités, precise service and a loyal crowd that returns generation after generation. You lunch here with your feet in the sand, away from the show, in an atmosphere time seems to have preserved. It's the classic to book for a first time in Saint-Tropez, and the one you always come back to. In high season, book well ahead, and claim your sunbeds before service.
