Le Migon is a rustic beach hut on Pampelonne beach, offering authentic Provençal and Italian cuisine. It provides a distinct seaside dining experience, with dinner served quite literally with your feet in the sand.
When to Go
For the most enjoyable experience, we recommend visiting Saint-Tropez in June and September, when the weather is ideal and the crowds are more manageable than in the peak months of July and August. An annual highlight is the internationally renowned Voiles de Saint-Tropez regatta, held during the first week of October, a spectacular display of sailing prowess.
