Especially end of October. Whereas most holiday spots in the south of Europe start hibernating for winter around the end of September, the season in Saint-Tropezends on the last weekend of October with a glorious bang, when all the shops and boutiques take part in a huge and cheery jumble sale called La Grande Braderie.

Book your holiday home and enjoy terrific bargains on the fabulous items we drool over in the quaint boutiques all around Saint-Tropez. Also, many designer brands use this jumble sale to get rid of their stocks and prepare for the following season. Hurray for us!

La Grande Braderie has been taking place every year, for nearly thirty years. This year, it is from 27th-29th October, and if you can make it, you will have a wonderful time shopping along the parked yachts, getting fantastic discounts and bargains. Once you have stocked up on everything your heart desires, continue your stroll towards the many shaded terraces for a delicious lunch. Or head back to your private swimming pool to continue indulging in your glamourous day!
