Words Nikki Beach Global
Originally known as a fishing village, Saint Tropez became an inspiration to painters and photographers quietly creating on the blissful shores of the Mediterranean Sea. And we’re not just talking about summer hobbyists: Saint Tropez has played host to some of the greatest artists of every era, such as Picasso, Monet, Van Gogh and Renoir.
It wasn’t until 1965, when stunning French blonde bombshell Brigitte Bardot filmed And God Created Women, in the region that the area was instantly catapulted from sleepy Provençal fishing village to holiday haven for the rich, fabulous and famous.
Nowadays, this French paradise spot has been associated with superyachts, designer fashion, the glitterati and stars such as Lewis Hamilton, Edward Enninful, Beyoncé and Novak Djokovic all regularly spotted enjoying the relaxing vibe.

HISTORIC SAINT TROPEZ
Despite being known in recent years for its indulgent lifestyle offerings, Saint Tropez has a religious background. It begins with the legend of Saint Torpes of Pisa, an early Christian martyr, who, after refusing to renounce his Christianity, was killed and set adrift in a boat with a rooster and a dog. The story goes that the boat came ashore and the animals had left his body untouched. The locals named their village in his honor, and Saint Tropez was born.
