The market takes place in the heart of the old town on Place des Lices and takes place regularly every Tuesday and Saturday morning. Even though you‘ll find home accessories and souvenirs on the market, too, keep walking through the historic alleys and browse through local shops for the most authentic souvenirs.
Stop by at Atelier Rondini, a boutique manufacturing the oldest and most known hand-made Tropezian sandals since 1927. Or visit boutique K. Jacques which, in addition to the main collection, offers personalization of their timeless and hand-crafted sandals. For swimwear, we recommend shop Vilebrequin, which was opened in 1971 and is known for its high-quality materials and craftsmanship. Created in the 80s, don't miss family-run boutique Sunday, selling chic dresses, jumpsuits and more. If you want to expand your summer wardrobe with designer pieces, stroll along Rue François Sibilli.
