The St Tropez Beach Club Scene - Club 55 and Pampelonne Beach

The pier at Club 55 on Pampelonne beach in St TropezClub 55 originated, appropriately, in 1955 when Brigitte Bardot was filming And God Created Women on Pampelonne Beach and the director asked a fisherman's hangout if they could cook for the cast. It's been almost synonomous with the St Tropez Beach scene since then, and never disappoints.

Club 55 is a well-groomed private beach club in the middle of Pampelonne Beach combined with a "laid back elegant" outdoor restaurant that serves perfect beach cuisine in a buzzy but relaxed and surprisingly intimate setting. It is our most requested destination in the South of France, and well known as a haunt of stars and the rich and famous.

A Day at Club 55

Boats moored in St TropezA typical day at Club 55, assuming you're coming by yacht and not by the horribly congested road into St Tropez from the A8 Motorway via St Maxime, begins after a 1-2 hour cruise from Cannes, Antibes or Monaco. Mangustas, Leopards, Sunseekers and a variety of Super Yachts literally line up to anchor just off the beach, where the Club's tender zips out to meet your party and bring you to the dock.

You will have needed to make reservations well in advance if you are planning on eating in high season, and you also need to reserve matresses on the beach, which fill up as well. Two matresses and a parasol will run you about €40 for the day, and lunch with the requisite Rose Wine will be €80 per person and up - well worth the splurge for your big day out in St Tropez!

The Restaurant in Club 55 in St TropezGet to the beach early in order to find the best available spot (don't even think about the straw covered sun huts - they're all taken already), and be ready to relax and people watch. You'll have plenty of time, because most likely you'll be eating lunch at 3:00 or 3:30. The early seatings are already booked for the regulars in the club.

The Restaurant at Club 55

The restaurant offers extremely fresh foods, simply and perfectly prepared. A large catch of the day, served for an entire table with fried potato chips, is a favourite. Starers are a good selection of fresh seasonal vegetables, such as artichokes,and other classics such as Prochiutto and Melon and Salad Nicoise. The house Rose is light and almost mandatory with your lunch.

A large table setting at Club 55 in St TropezOn a regular summer day, the restaurant will serve over 1000 lunches. But, due to the convivial, natural feel of the restaurant, it never feels crowded. The restaurant is perfect for celebrations of any kind, from anniversaries in a quiet table for two, to a large birthday party with 20 people. All will find something they like to eat, and will be accommodated effortlessly. A little known treat is to visit the restaurant during the Christmas holidays, when it is still warm in the sun but there are no crowds around.

Altogether, Club 55 makes for a very special Charter Day. There are if course other beach clubs on Pampelonne Beach - 31 at last count, matching nearly everyone's taste. The Voile Rouge is infamous as a "monument to erotic freedom", where you'll find plenty of topless women and a tilt to the hedonist lifestyle. And Nikki Beach, with its pool and thunderous music, is essentially a very hip night club during the day. Altogether, St Tropez is unique, and is one of the reasons why the French Rivera remains the top yachting destination in the world!
