Swimming in Ramatuelle

Ramatuelle is a hill village on the Saint-Tropez peninsula, about 7 km south of Saint-Tropez, with land running down to the east coast. There you'll find Pampelonne, a long sand bay lined with beach clubs, L'Escalet with its coves, and Cap Taillat, a headland reached only by the coastal path. At the top of the village, about 4 km inland from Pampelonne, the Moulin de Paillas windmill looks out over the coast.
