Travelling from Spain along the Med coast to Monaco

[Margaux2]

Hello everyone. Can anyone please suggest or recommend quality sites for a 9 m twin axle Motorhome when looking for coastal sites probably 4 over 2 weeks, end June through mid July. Want to visit St Tripez and Monaco towards the end.
Thanks

Towards the end of your trip try
Camping de la plage Port Grimaud . Site right on the beach first row on the sand.
Ten minute walk into Port Grimaud and access over to St Tropez by green boats.
Large commercial caravan site next door with small motorhome parking prairies de le mer . High end site restaurants nice swimming pool etc.

No motorhomes allowed in Monaco but good train service into the city and also through to Genoa for day trips etc.

We have just done this but coming the other way as we live in Spain.

for Monaco we stayed at Camping De La Laune, https://www.campingdelalaune.com/en/, it’s in a village called Peillon, and has a train to Nice and then a train to Monaco, total cost was €23 return for two of us and a dog. Dogs allowed on trains as long as muzzled, albeit no-one checked.

for St Tropez we stayed at Holiday Marina Resort in Port Grimaud, overpriced for what it is, and personally wouldn’t go there again, there is a site in saint maxime, can’t remember the name. It it’s on search for sites and looked much better. You can get a water taxi to St Tropez.

we are currently in Millau on way back to Spain, staying at Camping Les Erables, nice site and only €12 per night with ACSI, albeit don’t think this rate available during your time

next stop Barcelona, and that’s camping Barcelona, highly recommended apparently so I booked it.

when we went up out of Spain we first stayed on the aire at L’Aldea and then into Andorra but not sure if you want to do that route with your larger van, we are 7.5m and it was all fine.

Yes, they did have a small aire. But it’s gone now

For St Tropez realistically you've got the choice of Camping de la Plage , des Mures or Holiday Marina. ( We worked on Holiday Marina for a very long and very very hot summer a few years ago and it certainly a bit of a " marmite " site)
At that time the excellent Les Prairies site stopped taking tourers ( as Simon Meadowhall said they take a small number of motorhomes so I don't know now)
Some sites might have minimum stay rules

All those sites convenient for the ferry across the bay or an easy cycle along bike tracks to St Tropez

There quite a few other smaller sites around of various quality and not so convenient.

There's also an Aire/ bit of crappy land at the end of Pampelonne Beach

Thanks did Andorra last year in the van, found it depressing and most people we met were not as sociable as Catalonians! Roads were tiring but scenery when in the Pyrenees was stunning.hugging the Med coast this year as have done most of Inland France when towing Caravans.

How strange, one of the things we spoke about was he friendly and social the people were, inabree on the roads needs maximum concentration which makes you tired, but well worth it
