Sainte-Maxime. Across the gulf.
Private water taxi from Sainte-Maxime to Saint-Tropez (20 min), Pampelonne beach clubs (25 min), Port Grimaud (10 min), or Cannes (45 min). The gulf crossing that replaces a 90-minute drive.
Across the gulf, 20 minutes away.
Sainte-Maxime sits directly across the Golfe de Saint-Tropez — 4 km of flat water separating two worlds. The north shore (Sainte-Maxime, Port Grimaud) is where families stay; the south shore (Saint-Tropez, Pampelonne) is where they spend. The boat taxi is the bridge between the two: affordable accommodation on one side, premium experiences on the other.
The D559 is a 90-minute trap.
Sainte-Maxime to Saint-Tropez by car in July: 60-90 minutes on the D559. By boat across the gulf: 20 minutes. Same destination, no traffic light, no parking nightmare.
Family-friendly crossing.
The Golfe de Saint-Tropez is sheltered — rarely above force 3 inside the bay. Kids, grandparents, luggage: all comfortable. The boat fits 8, the ride is flat.
Evening return from Saint-Tropez.
Dinner at Sénéquier, then a 20-minute boat ride home. No designated driver, no D559 in the dark. Last departure: midnight in summer.
