Port Grimaud - General Info
Description:
Although only 5 NM from St Tropez, this is a very distinctive town. Known as a ‘poor man’s Venice’, it was built only 40 years ago and is based around artificial islands and canals, with the aim of every resident being able to park their boat at the bottom of the garden.
The marines de Cogolin, on the southern side of the River Giscle, is a large modern marina rather lacking in atmosphere.
