Beauvallon is on the Gulf of St. Tropez, halfway between Ste.Maxime and Port Grimaud. Ste.Maxime, a holiday resort with no big hotels, has retained the charm of a little town on the Côte d'Azur. The colourful daily market has all regional fresh produce and a good selection of sea food. Numerous cafés and restaurants and narrow alleyways create a pleasant ambience. The harbour has daily and weekly charter boats and crossings to St. Tropez and the islands of Hyères. St. Maxime has a lovely sandy beach, and the locals meet up there in the evening for a game of boules. The atmosphere is pleasant and low-key. The town has all kinds of shops and supermarkets. Very much recommended and a ‘must’ to see is Port Grimaud and of course Grimaud itself with its wonderful old alleyways.
