No. In Saint Tropez we couldn't find anymore the naked Brigitte Bardot after the cameras on the Saint Tropez's beach, but Bono Vox has a reserved table at the Club 55, named, due to the frequent visits paid by the singer, the "Irish Embassy". That hut on the Pampelonne Beach, where Roger Vadim and his young wife Brigitte Bardot had meals during the shot of Et Dieu Crea la Femme, is now a well renowned club and one of the most exclusive nightclub all over the World. There you could came across tycoons, movie and music stars and anything that comes after that kind of fauna, vips in general. They come by their yachts mooring at the club's private dock or having landed on one of the many bases for helicopter built near the vineyards or in the villas just outside the town of Saint Tropez.In France Saint Tropez is known as Saint Trop (a joke that translated sounds like "Saint too much") and there's a good reasonBut the Club55 is not alone on the 3 miles hot beach of Saint Tropez (the Times sets it in the number of the 10 most trendy beaches all over the World), there are more than 30 private clubs: The Key West with Sushi Bar, the Voile Rouge with its Russians and Arabs literally bathing in thousands of Euros worth champagne, the Nikki Beach: pumping music, showers of cocktails and never ending topless display.
If the busy beach of Pampelonne is good for lunch and can do your afternoon, in the morning and at night it's better you move to the harbour and have a look to the boats berthed: every night there's at least a
private party on board of one of the many luxury yachts. In fact the port is the hearth of the life of Saint Tropez and what a life! In France Saint Tropez is known as Saint Trop (a joke that translated sounds like "Saint too much") and there's a good reason: you can find there historical coffee houses like Senequier, le Gorille, the Sube; discos like le Papagayo and the Vip Room, go there and I bet you'll meet Paris Hilton. Go to Le Caves du Roi and dance all night long with George Clooney, Catherine Zeta Jones and Michael Douglas, Jennifer Lopez, Helton John and David Furnish, his husband. Most of the photo on gossip magazines were shot in Saint Tropez.But Saint Tropez is not only Vip watching, or the place to meet and be pictured close to a big star, it's a chapter of the entertainment history, too: La Madrague, the former residence of Brigitte Bardot, is the flag of a 60's changing Europe. The tv serial Sous Le Soleil and many other movies were shot here and many tourist are coming only to see the movie sets. But Saint Tropez it's fashion, too; many craftmen, nautical sports. Do you want some more?: vineyards, ulive trees, art, folk tradition and good food. It's a splendid spot on Mediterranean, and Tropeziens have been able to transform it preserving reasonably intact Nature and wildlife till now.
