In season St-Tropez stays up late, as you'd expect. You can spend the evening trying on fancy clothes in the amazing array of couturier shops; the boules games on place des Lices continue until well after dusk; and the portside spectacle doesn't falter till the early hours. If you're mad enough to want to pay to see – and be seen with – the nightlife creatures of St-Tropez, clubs include Les Caves du Roy, in the flashy Hôtel Byblos on rue Paul-Signac (the most expensive and exclusive); L'Esquinade, on rue du Four, which has been going strong since Bardot was young; and the gay disco Le Pigeonnier, 13 rue de la Ponche. All are open every night in summer, and usually Saturday only in winter.
