LES VOILES DE ST TROPEZ
St Tropez, late September - early October
Les Voiles de St Tropez, also known as the Nioulargue, will once again bring together the world's most cherished classic and modern sailing craft to create an amazing spectacle in the Golfe of St. Tropez on the French Riviera late September and early October.
The warm weather and bright blue light in September will ensure that the event is still as spectacular an event for the spectator as it is for the competitor.
Modern and classic sailing yachts of all sizes will once again compete in friendly open competition culminating in the traditional dinner and party in the Chateau on top of the hill.
At this time of year, St Tropez is at it's most splendid, the warm soft air and the clear light and lack of big crowds contribute to a very enjoyable visit.
Riviera Rental Guide has several apartments located in the old town which are convenient for the Regatta. Pictures courtesy of Cate Michel.
