This year’s Voiles de Saint‑Tropez delivered everything we love about Mediterranean sailing: flawless light, a breeze that filled every sail, and a fleet of beautiful boats racing across the blue. From classic yachts to high‑performance modern racers, La Voile 2026 celebrated craftsmanship, competition and the timeless joy of being on the water.

• Tight competition: Several races came down to tactical calls in light‑to‑moderate breezes, with photo finishes and spirited tactics that kept spectators and shore teams on edge.
• Classic yacht parade: A stunning parade of vintage yachts showcased immaculate restorations and traditional sail plans — a true feast for lovers of maritime heritage.
• Community and events: The shores of Saint‑Tropez buzzed with panels, boat shows and evening gatherings where sailors, designers and fans exchanged stories and celebrated the sea.
• Sustainability push: The 2026 edition continued to highlight greener practices in event management and boat maintenance — a welcome shift for the future of sailing.

Why Ramatuelle loves Les Voiles de Saint‑Tropez:

Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez is the perfect match for Ramatuelle’s spirit: relaxed elegance, active beach lifestyle, and respect for coastal traditions. The event mirrors our values - craftsmanship, timeless style and a love for the Mediterranean way of life. Watching the sails fill at sunrise reminds us why we design swimwear that performs on the water and looks great on the quay.

What to wear for a day at the regatta:

• Light, quick‑dry swim shorts: choose a classic fit for comfort between races and a short fit for active days on deck.
• Breathable shirts and linen layers: for sunny mornings and cooler evenings onshore.
• Non‑marking deck shoes or sneakers: practical and stylish for moving around boats.
• Sun protection: wide‑brim hats, polarized sunglasses and SPF — the Mediterranean sun is bright even when the breeze is cool.
