Club 55, Loulou, Verde, Nikki Beach and more: the Pampelonne beach clubs worth your day, and what each one does best.
By Laly Saint-Tropez 3 min read
Almost all of the best beach clubs in Saint-Tropez line Pampelonne beach, around 4.5 km of fine sand in Ramatuelle, 10 to 15 minutes’ drive from the village. Each has its own personality: legendary, chic, festive or serene. Here is our 2026 ranking.
Club 55
The legend of the beach.
Open since the 1950s and still the most mythical address on Pampelonne. Discreet, timeless, with the best position on the bay: the Saint-Tropez of Brigitte Bardot.
Loulou Ramatuelle
1950s Riviera chic.
Whitewashed wood, sail-like canopies and Franco-Italian cuisine among tamarisks and olive trees. The prettiest setting on the beach, and one of its best lunches.
Gigi Ramatuelle
Italian Riviera spirit.
The beach outpost of Paris’s Gigi: Italian cuisine, striped parasols and a joyful, elegant crowd, from long family lunches to festive late afternoons.
Shellona
Boho-chic, with the best music.
A sun-washed, Grecian-inspired setting and the Riviera’s most ambitious music line-up: in summer 2026, names such as Solomun, Black Coffee and Peggy Gou.
Casa Amor
Dressed by Dolce&Gabbana.
In summer 2026 the house dressed Casa Amor again in its Sicilian Carretto prints for the DG Resort takeover, with wood-fired grills to share and a DJ show every evening.
Byblos Beach
The palace, on the sand.
The beach of Hôtel Byblos: the palace’s service by the sea, refined cuisine and a calm, stylish atmosphere, loved by families and regulars.
Moorea Plage
The classic that comes alive at 4 pm.
One of the oldest beaches on Pampelonne: relaxed at lunch, then DJs and a lively crowd in the late afternoon.
Verde Beach
The insider’s party.
Deliberately small and bohemian, with seriously good food and some of the best music on the beach: lunch turns into a celebration.
Jardin Tropézina
A garden by the sea.
Pastel colours, wood and pines, and light Mediterranean cuisine signed by multi-starred chef Jean-François Piège. Calm, easy to reach and wonderful with children.
La Réserve à la Plage
Pure refinement, redesigned by Starck.
The beach of La Réserve Ramatuelle returned in 2026 entirely redesigned by Philippe Starck, in a bohemian-chic spirit: a pristine beach, refined Mediterranean cuisine and a beautiful boutique.
What to wear to a Pampelonne beach club
Fringe, linen-silk and easy dresses that take you from lunch to sunset.
