Gassin () is a commune in the Var department in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region in southeastern France. It is a member of Les Plus Beaux Villages de France (The Most Beautiful Villages of France) Association.
It is located very near to the holiday destination of Saint-Tropez. Perched high up on a rock, it is less than from the sea. Many Tropezian tourists who are attracted by a more affordable life prefer to stay in Gassin and enjoy the same kind of "Cote d'Azur" life.
