Personal tips
Marie's handpicked favourites
The places I return to again and again - around our houses in Saint-Tropez and on Sylt.
Saint-Tropez
Shops & markets
Grand Frais - Cogolin
Just a few minutes from Saint-Tropez in Cogolin, Grand Frais offers the freshest produce: crisp vegetables, ripe fruit, a wonderful cheese counter and a fine fishmonger.
Bars & cafés
Café de Paris
A classic café and brasserie overlooking the harbour of Saint-Tropez. Its terrace offers a front-row seat to the boats, passers-by and lively rhythm of the town.
Beach & restaurant
Le Club 55
On Pampelonne beach in Ramatuelle, Le Club 55 has been a Riviera institution since 1955. A beachside restaurant where Mediterranean flavours and a relaxed atmosphere set the tone for a long lunch by the sea.
Sylt
Beach & restaurant
Lister Austernperle - List
Right on the beach in List, the Lister Austernperle looks out over the North Sea towards Denmark. Famous for its fresh oysters, served on the terrace just above the sand, with wicker beach chairs and the tides setting the rhythm of the day.
Cafés
Bäckerei Ingwersen - Morsum
An island institution in Morsum: the Ingwersen bakery with its enchanting garden café. Freshly baked bread in the morning, generous breakfasts, wonderful cakes and Friesian tea under the old trees.
Beach & beach bar
Buhne 16 - Kampen
A cult favourite on the beach in Kampen, Buhne 16 is closely linked to Sylt’s surfing culture. Sand, sea air and a relaxed beach bar make it a place to enjoy the island’s wilder side.
Tea & beautiful finds
Kontorhaus Sylt - Keitum
In Keitum, Kontorhaus Sylt brings together fine teas, carefully chosen gifts and elegant accessories. A lovely address for discovering something special to take home.
