Côte d'Azur day 5-6

Day 5: the big trip to St-Tropez. We took the boat in Ste.-Maxim that brought us to the favourite holiday spot of many celebs (you could even take a special boat trip to spot all the celeb mansions on the coastline, but even I'm not that much of a fangirl). St-Tropez was not as great as, let's say, Nice, but it definitely had its charms and was worth a visit.

My sister and the enormous yachts.



The boat trip back to Ste-Maxim was a lot more fun than getting there because there was a lot more wind.





Day 6: a day for a road trip through the mountains. The 'Gorges du Verdon' was better than breathtaking. There is a reason why people tend to call it the European Grand Canyon. On our way we stopped a few times to visit a couple of picturesque towns.




Never seen such clear water.

  1. Wow! I'm finally catching up some on here and I'm really enjoying all of your photos.

    That water is gorgeous. It really is so clear. I especially like the lighthouse. I have a bit of a thing for lighthouses.

    I like the blue dress you're wearing in e.g. the 4th picture. Where did you get it? :)
