Grimaud Vista Panorámica Al Mar

Grimaud occupies a privileged position in the Var, set back from the Gulf of Saint-Tropez on a hillside that rises above the coastal plain. The medieval village at its core, with its restored castle ruins and Romanesque church, gives the commune a depth of character that the coastal resorts nearby lack. The wider commune extends down to Port Grimaud, the purpose-built lagoon village on the waterfront, giving residents access to both an authentic Provençal interior and direct proximity to the bay.

Daily life centres on the Tuesday and Saturday markets in the village square, with restaurants such as Les Santons de Grimaud for traditional Provençal cooking. Saint-Tropez is a 15-minute drive, providing access to the Marché Provençal on Place des Lices, the dining scene along the port, and the beaches of Pampelonne.

The nearest major transport hub is Toulon-Hyères Airport, approximately 60 kilometres west, with regular domestic and seasonal international services. Nice Côte d’Azur Airport, the primary international gateway for the region, is roughly 90 kilometres east, around 90 minutes by car. The TGV station at Les Arcs-Draguignan, about 25 kilometres north, connects to Paris Gare de Lyon in approximately three and a half hours.
