Quartier de la Bouillabaisse, 83990 Saint-Tropez, France

Free Open 24h
Price notes
Genuinely free — the rare no-charge car park in St-Tropez, out by the Plage de la Bouillabaisse. A rough, unsurfaced lot that “looks sketchy but is not,” a 15–20 minute walk along the water into the centre. Arrive early for a space.

If you refuse to pay St-Tropez prices, this is the spot: the free lot out by the Plage de la Bouillabaisse, on the way into town. Reviewers are gleeful about it — “it is free parking in St-Tropez for god’s sake, what more do you want?” — and confirm you can park all day at no charge. It is honest about what it is: an unsurfaced, slightly muddy lot that “looks sketchy but it is not,” roughly a 15–20 minute walk along the front into the centre. Come early, because “if you arrive early plenty of space,” and bring a relaxed attitude about the surface.
