"Port Grimaud is an exceptional place. When you first arrive you almost can't believe it's real. It's so perfect and well maintained that you look around for signs that Disney have made a copy of Venice and behind every wall is lots of chipboard and paint cans.
But it's not so. When I looked carefully at the docksides, I commented to my wife that those huge granite blocks that form the dock were definitely NOT fake, and the paving slabs on the streets were clearly solid and very real and not made yesterday.
That's why Port Grimaud is such a lovely surprise, it's a Venice that you didn't know existed. It's one of the best kept secrets of the French Riviera and one I'm so glad we discovered. When the kids figured out that in order to get from the little villa to anywhere, we needed to take a boat, their eyes just lit up in astonishment.
We rented a little semi-rigid for the week and were able to explore all the little canals, go all around the Golfe of St Tropez and basically tie up just about anywhere. We even got to tie up onto a giant pro sailing yacht in St Tropez next yacht along from Nicole Kidmans party. I don't think you can do this with a bigger boat though.
Port Grimaud is small, but it's small size makes it manageable with a group. There are plenty of bars and restaurants and St Raphael and St Tropez and only minutes away either by sea if you have hired a boat or by road if terra firma is the choice of transport."
