Toulon-Hyères Airport
Toulon · France
Toulon-Hyères (LFTH) is the closest paved runway to Saint-Tropez (45 minutes by chauffeur, 18 minutes by helicopter) and the natural arrival point for the Var coast — Porquerolles, Île du Levant, Hyères and the Domaine de Murtoli set. The airport handles modest scheduled traffic alongside a strong business-aviation flow, with runway 05/23 at 2,121 m capable of accepting heavy jets and a single FBO that turns ULR arrivals in under 15 minutes.
Einordnung
Toulon-Hyères beats Nice for Saint-Tropez transfers — both by car (45 vs 90 minutes) and helicopter (18 vs 25). Runway 05/23 (2,121 m) accepts heavy and ultra-long-range types at typical weights, and the slot regime is materially looser than Nice, Cannes or Le Bourget. Capacity tightens July through mid-September, especially Friday/Saturday inbound and Sunday/Monday outbound, when the Saint-Tropez yacht-and-villa season peaks.
