Saint Tropez

The city of Saint-Tropez, in France, reminds us of glamour, glitter, famous people, yachts, white sandy beaches, exclusive clubs and art all at once. This incredible and small city is located in the south of France, on the Mediterranean coast, roughly between Marseille and Nice. During the summer months, Saint-Tropez is full of high society figures from all over the world who come to enjoy a luxury holiday. In summer, tourists increase the city's population by about 10 times more than all year round.

Saint-Tropez is a popular tourist resort, located in the south of France, with a beautiful harbor full of sailboats, elegant yachts, luxury palaces, and movie stars.

St. Tropez, like many port cities, was originally a modest fishing village, became popular when some families from Genoa moved to this country.
This city is the most beautiful and important tourist center on the French Riviera, it owes much of its fame to the French actress Brigitte Bardot. The actress and sex symbol caused a furore with the film "Et Dieu... créa la femme" in 1956.
Millionaires and celebrities from all over the world have since begun to frequent the small peninsula.
For those looking for tranquility and not the classic resort with crowded discos, Saint-Tropez remains a must with its beautiful calm and crystalline beaches.
The city is surprisingly simple, rustic, and traditional in appearance, as in all other places on the French Riviera, especially in its harbor. It is worth taking a walk and enjoying the warm and pleasant climate in summer, especially if the goal is to enjoy a well-deserved vacation.
This place, with its excellent climate and beautiful landscape, attracts many tourists and in addition to this, the city is also famous for its multiple attractions. A feature of the city is certainly the walls that surround its two towers: the Tour Guillaume and the Tour de Portalet. Their structures have allowed the city to protect numerous incursions from the sea. At the entrance to the city, in the old port, dominates the statue of the French Admiral Pierre-André de Suffren, commander and head of the Navy, awarded several times for his exploits, built in 1866. Not to be outdone is the beautiful statue of "Balì dell'Ordine di Malta", produced with bronze from enemy cannons offered by Napoleon III.

Port Vendres

Port Mahon

Mahon is the capital of Menorca, an island of pristine beaches, coves and inlets around the 216km coastline which allows the most adventurous to experience a satisfying sense of discovery.

Menorca must be one of the few places in the Mediterranean where it is possible to have a beautiful semi-deserted beach in the summer; also thanks to the fact that in 1993 UNESCO declared the island a biosphere reserve, with the aim of preserving its uncontaminated environmental areas, such as the s'Albufera d'es Grau natural park and the archaeological sites of the island. The second largest and northernmost of the Balearic Islands, Menorca also has a more humid climate and is usually a couple of degrees colder than the other islands.

Tanger

The city of Tangier (in Arabic طنجة, Tanja; in Latin Tingis) is a port in northern Morocco. Located at the entrance to the Strait of Gibraltar, at the meeting point between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic Ocean, the beautiful Tangier presents an unforgettable landscape that for centuries has attracted generations of artists, including Eugène Delacroix, Camille Saint-Saëns, Pierre Loti and Paul Morand. With its temperate climate, important vegetation, its luminosity and the strip of beach that extends for 3 km in a distinct way, Tangier seduces thousands of tourists every year. Its history makes it a mythical city, a land of relentless occupations and colonizations. The Old Medina preserves memories of Muslim influence: as soon as you cross the threshold, you will be assailed by the smells and perfumes of the Grand Socco literally known as the great soukh. Merchants in traditional costume will convince you to buy traditional clothes of the country and genuine leather products. A few meters away, you can also admire the Sidi Bou Abid Mosque, a favorite attraction for visitors. But be careful: entry to this place of worship is forbidden to non-Muslims. On the contrary, the modern city of Tangier, has preserved the French architectural experience, distinguishing itself The Grand Café de Paris, one of its fundamental pillars. Tangier is certainly one of those cities that must be deeply known to discover its wonders.
