Each year, the regatta commences at the end of June in the picturesque town of Saint-Tropez, where Suffren himself discovered his passion for the sea. From there, the participants embark on a thrilling journey, making stops in Sardinia or Corsica (this year, it's the charming town of Bonifacio in Corsica), then proceeding to Sicily (Trapani), and finally concluding in Malta, spanning nearly 650 miles. What makes the Bailli de Suffren Trophy even more extraordinary is the connection it maintains between www.tropheebaillidesuffren.com

France and Malta. The historical and maritime ties between the two countries led to a cooperation agreement signed by the cities of Saint-Tropez and Birgu on October 21, 2012. This agreement solidified their status as twinned tourist and nautical destinations, celebrating a decade of partnership last year. To further enhance the spirit of seamanship, technical prowess, and the art of living, the organisation offers the finest addresses in private and independent hotel establishments such as The Snop House in Senglea, one of the Three Cities of Malta.

A Bit Of History

Vice-Admiral Pierre André de Suffren (1729-1788), renowned as the Bailli of Saint-Tropez and distinguished Bailli and Grand Cross in the Order of Saint John of Jerusalem, achieved remarkable successes during his extensive voyages across the seas and oceans. His prominent position in French history is closely associated with numerous locations, particularly his affiliation with Saint-Tropez. As an exceptional sailor and strategic mastermind, Suffren stands unrivalled as the foremost admiral of the latter half of the 18th century. Notably feared by the English, who bestowed upon him the moniker "the Admiral Satan”, Suffren's maritime brilliance is commemorated within one of the rooms at the Malta Maritime Museum, situated in the town of Birgu.
