Saint-Victor-la-Coste (French pronunciation: [sɛ̃ viktɔʁ la kɔst]; Provençal Occitan: Sent Victor de la Còsta) is a commune in the Gard department in the Occitania region in Southern France.
Built against a hill overlooking a plain covered with vineyards with the Rhône Valley in the distance, the town was once part of the medieval domain of the Sabran family, vassals to the Count of Toulouse.
