One of the most beautiful cities in Europe that I have visited. It really exudes unusual beauty and romance. The buildings are beautiful and I really like that kind of architecture. Along the coast of Cannes, there are beaches along almost the entire length. They are very clean and it is a real pleasure to swim. Lots of restaurants for every taste and pocket. And of course La Croisette! Beautiful! I will be happy to visit Cannes again!

Hatice U — Google review
Popularly known as Palais des Festivals et des Congres", La Croisette is about 22 km long promenade in Cannes along the shore of the Mediterranean Sea where the Cannes Film Festival is held. There is a sidewalk with hotels, casinos, brand stores, a rose garden and places with lots of shady trees where families meet and spend their quality time. There are interesting places around this place to stroll and explore. If you are falling short of time or do not have energy for a walk, then one can enjoy a small touristic city train tour to explore the nearby area. The place is dynamic with lots of hustle bustle of the tourists and locals. The evening sunsets and the night illuminations and combined with festive fireworks make this place truly romantic and mesmerizing. A must to visit when you are in France.

František O — Google review
The hand prints don't seem to be very taken care (example: some of the them had rails on top of them so we could not appreciate them, those rails could have been stored a bit further away from the hand prints) also the hand prints could have a plaque beneath with the name of the stars as some of them are not perceived as they are signed by the stars.

Plage Macé

Mentioned on 
4 lists 
Beach
Outdoor Activities
The Plage Macé beach in La Croisette is a great place to relax and swim. It's free to use, has clean water, and is usually quiet in the morning. There are no rocks or wind here, which makes it a calm and safe spot. The only downside is that there are not many places to sit down, so it can get crowded during the summer months.
Came to Cannes for a night during the Cannes Film Festival (2025) so I could watch the free public screenings that start from 9:30pm onwards everyday during the festival. I started to queue for it at least 2 hours before so I was fairly near the start of the queue. It did fill up quickly so I would advise queueing up early to get a deck chair spot but you could just fully bring a beach towel and sit outside the cordoned area to watch without queueing. They did provide blankets as it does get chilly, but I’d still advise bringing a light jacket if you plan to stay long.

The beaches in Cannes are sandy and beautiful, but we came here for the Cinéma de la Plage during the Festival. It was an open-air cinema with comfortable beach chairs and blankets provided. We watched Palombella Rossa, which was a perfect film to watch for the setting. There was music warm-up act with audience participation before the screening. It was so much fun. The films are in the original language with French subtitles. It was a beautiful experience.

The firework festival this year was extraordinary, as usual the beach was full of people waiting but even so you could find space to watch the show, as usual the ending was the most exciting.

Lovely beach at Cannes, not too busy as we were there in March. Very clean, a lot of work was going on for the Cannes series festival. We never knew that this existed. It was a little windy on the day we were there so we didn't stay long on the beach. But we had a good walk and will visit next time we are in the area

We spent beautiful days at the Beach in Cannes and this place was amazing , the beach , the food and the exceptional service were incredible.

Excellent service with Kateryna, Yannick and Alberto at the terrace during lunch time. Isabelle was also a great hostess. She helped us a lot to manage a comfortable seat despite the critical and noisy renovation on the pier. We finally enjoyed the beach side of the hotel and a pleasant lunch with very attentive staff and smiling team. One only small detail is about the wine service : please always ask to taste the wine before you pour the glasses. My two guests felt a bit embarrassed...

The location is really unbeatable, only a 5 minute walk to the beach. The staff is so nice and the rooms are clean. We enjoyed the breakfasts daily and coffee service. There are 3 restaurants on the street below and we tried them all. La Dolce Vita was my favorite but all 3 were really good.

Visiting for the Cannes Film Festival for work and woke up my first morning to find two bedbugs in the bed. I took video and photos and showed them to the hotel staff. They put me up in an apartment for the rest of my stay, and I missed one and a half days of meetings due to having to move, hot wash and sanitize all of my clothing and belongings. When I asked for a refund for the two missed days they said they have never had bedbugs and denied me. The hotel has musty carpet and large cracks in the floorboards behind the bed where I think the bugs came from.

This is not a 4 star hotel. It’s literally a motel, without elevator, not cleaned properly and moldy spots in the shower. The location is incredible and it is such a pity they’re not taking care of it properly.
Yasmin B — Google review
(Translated by Google) Avoid at all costs – a disgrace to the hotel industry in Cannes! I've never had such a disastrous experience in a hotel. The breakfast was very poor, in a room where I even saw rodents – a shocking experience from the morning. No elevator, tiny, dirty rooms infested with bedbugs, with mold in the bathroom. The whole place was in an alarmingly unsanitary state. The reception was particularly disappointing: there was no receipt for a cash payment, and my credit card was charged several times for a night and breakfasts that I didn't even eat. Despite a reservation that was supposed to be cancellable and refundable, I was refused a refund when I tried to check out. I had to ask the receptionist to come up to the room to see the obvious presence of bedbugs, both in the carpet and on the sheets. Since my departure, I've tried several times to get a refund for the overcharged amounts, without a response from the owner, but given the other reviews, this seems to be a common occurrence. I strongly advise against this establishment. My stay was a series of unpleasant surprises, and I wouldn't wish this experience on anyone. (Original) À fuir absolument – une honte pour l’hôtellerie à Cannes ! Jamais je n’ai vécu une expérience aussi catastrophique dans un hôtel. Petit déjeuner très pauvre, dans une salle où j’ai même vu passer des rongeurs – une expérience choquante dès le matin. Pas d’ascenseur, chambres minuscules, sales, infestées de punaises de lit, avec de la moisissure dans la salle de bain. L’ensemble était dans un état d’insalubrité alarmant. L’accueil a été particulièrement décevant : absence de reçu pour un paiement en espèces, et ma carte bancaire a été débitée à plusieurs reprises pour une nuit et des petits déjeuners que je n’ai même pas consommés. Malgré une réservation censée être annulable et remboursable, on m’a refusé tout remboursement lorsque j’ai voulu quitter l’hôtel. J’ai dû faire monter le réceptionniste dans la chambre pour constater la présence flagrante de punaises de lit, aussi bien dans la moquette que sur les draps. Depuis mon départ, j’ai tenté à plusieurs reprises d’obtenir un remboursement pour les montants facturés en trop, sans réponse de la part de la proprietaire mais vu les autres commentaires ca semble etre chose courante. Je déconseille fortement cet établissement. Mon séjour a été une succession de mauvaises surprises, et je ne souhaite cette expérience à personne

Île Saint-Honorat is a picturesque island in the Lérins group, known for its 15th-century fortified Cistercian monastery. The island is covered with vineyards and is home to some of France's last winemaking monks. Visitors can taste and purchase award-winning wines at a special degustation room and enjoy a meal at a high-quality restaurant.
This place is a short cruise trip from Cannes. Boats start leaving from 10 am in morning and last from the island is around 430 pm, never miss it. You can spend a whole day exploring this small but beautiful island. There are multiple small beaches to swim and sun bathe. One of the destination of French Riviera.

Such a beautiful island! I definitely prefer this island to the bigger one. There are a lot less people and have quite a few cute quiet beaches. It takes a couple of hours to walk around the whole island but I definitely think you can make a whole day of it if you relax by the beach and then go sightseeing.

Beautiful, quiet, secluded island with a monastery and vineyards. Like l’île Sainte-Marguerite, it is only accessible by ferry. There is a lovely, short walk around the island, and a nice restaurant overlooking the water.
Audrey — Google review
We began with the boat trip which was lovely. Staff were very pleasant and it was good value for money. The island is beautiful and well worth a visit. The highlight for us was to be able to join the monastic community for Mass on Palm Sunday - quite a special day to visit with a lovely procession carrying palms through the cloisters. . The singing was profound and added to the spirituality of the place.The aroma of the scented incense added to the beauty of the Liturgy. After Mass we toured the island which is very historical and interesting. We ate our packed lunches at a picturesque spot at the edge of the Mediterranean sea. Our return boat trip was just as pleasant as the initial journey. Thanks to the Community for a truly inspirational and enjoyable day. Would love to return some time 🙂🙏

Short cruise from Cannes, great views, cute little island, you can walk all around it in like 2 hours. Nature blooming, cicadas playing, nice old monastery (with monks living in it still), a lot of hidden little bays where you can walk on the rocks or swim. Nice restaurant La Tonelle, good food and drinks, service ok.

Beautiful island for a day trip or half day trip. Easy to get the 15 minute ferry from Cannes. There are nice walks around the island and beautiful swimming spots with crystal clear waters. Perfect place to take a picnic, relax and enjoy the views. There are a couple of food vendors for snacks and drinks. Also check out the diving / snorkeling spot with underwater statues. The area is on the opposite side of the island to the boat port. Cool experience, swimming out to find the 6 underwater statues/sculptures.

Île Sainte Marguerite is a fifteen-minute boat ride from Cannes. You can pick up your tickets directly on the quayside. The crossing is rather quiet. The island also depends on whether it's high or low season. It's clean and the landscape is well preserved. The boats come and go frequently. And the average return fare is less than €20, depending on whether you buy online or in the stalls. Buying on the spot seems cheaper.
Chérie A — Google review
Île Sainte-Marguerite is a natural temple, breathtaking and unique. Unfortunately, some people ruin it by parking their boats just 10 meters from the shore — something both illegal and dangerous, for swimmers and for the fragile marine environment. I expected to see the coast guard enforcing the rules, but this is Cannes: if you’re wealthy, it seems you can do whatever you want, and the local administration turns a blind eye. Sadly, the damage is already visible — much of the underwater algae is dead. A paradise like this deserves real protection, not neglect.

A beautiful and peaceful island near Cannes, known for its crystal-clear beaches and stunning sea views. Easily accessible by ferry, it’s a perfect spot to relax and enjoy both nature and history. Highly recommended! 🌊🌿

I visited Île Sainte-Marguerite during my trip to Cannes, and it was such a peaceful and refreshing experience. The island is surrounded by crystal-clear blue water and has beautiful walking trails through pine trees. You can visit the old fort, enjoy the sea views, or simply sit and relax by the shore. It’s quiet, clean, and perfect for nature lovers. There are limited food options, so it’s good to carry some water and snacks. Definitely worth a visit if you’re looking for a calm and scenic escape from the city!

Very interesting place, specially for kids which can explore several species both plants and animals. It has available spaces for picnics and games for children...during summer might be a bit very hot to visit ( although has a lake, high trees almost forest like) but still a good option, particularly if you want to spend few hours before or after reaching the nice airport which is just 5 min away by tram.

It was a very nice place to relax, conveniently close to the airport, which made it perfect for us to stop by since we arrived earlier than our apartment check-in time. The staff were friendly, and the plants and park area created a pleasant atmosphere to sit and have something to eat. On the other hand, there aren’t many things to see, and I found it a bit strange to notice rats roaming around. With some improvements, the place could be even better.

Phoenix Park is a wonderful park where families love to meet to explore the many rare species of animals and plants that amaze children and their parents. The place is beautiful and has a dining area that offers various types, the entrance ticket is cheap, the organization is excellent

A fun mix of zoo and park – great for families Parc Phoenix is a lovely place to spend a few hours, especially if you’re visiting with kids. It’s a mix between a park and a small zoo, with a good variety of animals including ostriches, peacocks, ducks, and wallabies. There’s also a playground for children and even a climbing wall, which adds a bit of extra fun. We appreciated the snack shack for quick bites, and the location is very convenient—right next to the airport. The entry price was very fair for what you get. When we visited, it was quite hot, so exploring for long periods was a bit challenging, but overall, it’s a nice, family-friendly spot with plenty to see and do.

Parc Phoenix in Nice is truly one of the best destinations for a fun and educational family outing. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, the park offers a wonderful blend of indoor and outdoor experiences that appeal to both kids and adults. With lush botanical gardens, exotic plants, and a variety of animals including flamingos, turtles, and wallabies, there’s plenty to explore and enjoy. Children will especially love the interactive zones and wide open spaces to run and play, while parents can relax in the beautiful picnic areas under the open sky. The park is well-maintained, clean, and safe, making it ideal for a full-day visit. It’s a perfect mix of nature and leisure where families can bond while learning about biodiversity. What makes it even more appealing is how affordable it is. Entry is pocket-friendly, and for residents of Nice, it’s completely free during the first weekend of each month—a great initiative that encourages community engagement and regular visits. The park is easy to reach, close to the airport, and also has indoor areas, making it a suitable destination year-round. Overall, Parc Phoenix is a hidden gem in Nice, perfect for nature lovers and families seeking a relaxing and enriching day out. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful escape with kids or simply a charming day in nature.

Animals are treated well in this park and it really shows. Flamingos are really cool 🩷🦩 and the tortoises are huge if you do have 3 hrs of spare time before your flight Nice you should really check it out. And they serve pretty good breakfast options as pantries better than the airport food I promise.
Elene N — Google review
The park has a lot of potential but needs some serious attention. It was confusing to navigate, as there were hardly any directions or staff around to help. We were looking forward to a relaxing day, but a simple rule about no scooters became a huge hassle when the staff wouldn't store it for us, forcing us to go all the way to a different storage area. On a positive note, the small cafe and the shaded seating were great for escaping the heat with an ice lolly. This place could be a great tourist attraction, but it needs a lot of improvement and better management.

Nice Russian Orthodox building not far from the railway station. It has a nice green area around it, with rabbits running around. Inside is beautiful. Well worth a visit if in the area.

Beautiful place, but an active churche so please make sure to visit outside of mess hours. There is a nice museum in the crypt worth visiting and learning about the history of this church. A bit unusual place to visit as a tourist but very interesting.
Gerard P — Google review
Found this a worthwhile visit. €5 will permit you to go to the basement of the church to view a short feature on the history of the cathedral which makes for an interesting backdrop as you view the cathedral itself. Beautiful and peaceful inside, and very pleasant ladies who admit you, plus a small gift shop if you are so inclined.

What a grandiose place of worship! The church looks absolutely fabulous both from outside and majestic on the inside. Being my first visit to a Russian Orthodox church, there were so many things that were different to my eyes. There is no longitudinal nave with bench seats. Instead this is what traditional wooden chapels would have looked like. The construction reminded me of Ottoman buildings (pardon my ignorance). The intense gilded decor and dark shaded paintings instantly detaches you from the outer chaotic world. Amazing experience.

The church is beautiful, and it is worth seeing while visiting Nice, but only 4 stars because of the old ladies working inside. They are just rude. I'm a tourist and I think like many people visiting this place I'm allowed not to speak Russian or French well to understand them. I know it is a church and a place of whorship first before tourist attraction, but they were really rude and borderr aggressive. I hope you will not get this treatment.

It's more beautiful from the outside and there's a big garden surrounding the cathedral. Inside we can see the museum and prayer's hall. It's only a small portion and the ticket cost 5 Euro. The ladies working there all wear head scarves. Even most women visitors wear head scarves too. Apparently this cathedral is the property of the Russian Federation.

Very beautiful, scenic and lively avenue along the coast with passengers walking around in numbers even at midnight. And the avenue is exceptionally bright, of course.

Great views of the bay and the city. The promenade is apparently over 7 kilometers long and offers lovely views of the water and the city. You can also get a great view of planes taking off to land and coming in at Nice airport! With so much seating available it is a fantastic spot to park up with some takeaway food and watch the world go by. It can be especially pretty at sunset. If you are visiting Nice you will probably walk along here a bunch of times

Nice is a very beautiful city. I could not have enough of it. The clear blue water and the buildings are just breathe taking. Even from the airplane I could see the blue color of the sea. This city should be seen on feet, walking around is the best to see its beauty. The only thing I didn't enjoy was the long beach. It was difficult to walk with my feet in the water because it was a stone beach not sand one.

Very disappointed with the way the carnival was conducted. The place itself was ok but man is there 0 information about what happens on opening night. They say its free for entry and then when you queue up suddenly everyone has tickets. They block the whole view from the sides for the carnival and hold it in a super exclusive staged area. We travelled all the way from UK for this for nothing. If people say we should have bought tickets in advance, its clearly mentioned on the website that its free on opening day and doesn't mention about any tickets!

Lovely area with live music regularly. We found many shops and restaurants in the area. We didn't have a chance to see if uber was well represented here because our hotel was close enough to the water as close enough to Nice Massena that we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. Old city is very near. So is the castle hill. Both places I would highly recommend. The beech of course, too! We found it quite easy to communicate as English speakers. We were only in Nice 2.5 days but would happily return to this area!

If you're in the French Riviera, you clearly have to come to Nice and to visit this place. It's always full of people, a lot of places where you can seat. Thanks to the metro it's pretty easy to go there. Also most of the time there are artists which perform music.

National museum
Museums
The Marc Chagall National Museum is a tribute to the works of the Russian-born French artist, showcasing his paintings and other artistic creations. The museum's architecture by Andre Hermant complements Chagall's use of color and light, with large windows illuminating lithographs, sculptures, and paintings. Visitors can explore Chagall's biblical and spiritual inspirations through free audio guides in what is the largest public collection of his works worldwide.
This national museum houses a permanent exhibit of Chagall's paintings, stained glass, and mosaics. The paintings are from his biblical cycle. A documentary film illustrates the creation of the four seasons mosaic. The museum is located in a quiet park, including a cafe and restaurant.
Beat S — Google review
Nice’s museum opened by and dedicated to Marc Chagall - primarily consisting of his ‘biblical’ works, and those related to religious themes and tropes. Interesting to see this line of his work compared to some of his other more famous pieces. Not overly big, but interesting for any art lovers.
Matt W — Google review
The Marc Chagall National Museum is located in a primarily residential neighbor situated on the hills of Nice. This museum was inaugurated while Chagall was still alive and it houses several of his paintings as well as explores his famous mosaics. There are tours available on a first come first serve basis. Guillemette, our tour guide, was extremely informative sharing insights into Chagall’s history, his collaborators, and his inspirations. We learned about the process of making mosaics too from creative inception to the actual works. What’s more, there is an outdoor cafe that’s serves sweet and savory, hot and cold snacks and beverages that is also worth checking out. Keep in mind, you will be asked to remove your water bottles and any food that you bring with you so best to avoid bringing them. Recommend bringing very small bag if any at all. Spent a delightful couple of hours at the Marc Chagall museum enjoying his art and the natural surroundings. Highly recommend
Nanita — Google review
Visiting the Chagall Museum in Nice was an absolute delight. Tucked away in a quiet corner of the city, it feels like stepping into a peaceful world filled with color, imagination, and poetry. The moment you walk in, you’re surrounded by Chagall’s luminous blues and dreamlike scenes that seem to glow from within. What I loved most was how personal and intimate the museum feels — it’s not overwhelming, and you can really take your time with each painting. The biblical message series is breathtaking, and the stained-glass windows add a special light that changes the whole atmosphere. The staff were welcoming, and the small garden outside is perfect for sitting for a few minutes to let everything sink in. It’s one of those places that leaves you both calm and inspired

The Marc Chagall National Museum in Nice, France together with the Matisse Museum were my unexpected finds in a vacation that was just free flowing and no detailed itinerary. At first, I was apprehensive as it was my first time to visit a museum on my own and in another country even. However, I did not regret my decision to forego seeing Cannes in favour of the great works of Chagall and Matisse all in one day! The 75 or so Euros cost of Uber (Holiday Inn Hotel - Matisse Museum - Holiday Inn - Chagall Museum - Hotel) plus tickets in both museums was definitely worth it! The Chagall Museum was inaugurated on July 7, 1973, and celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2023. It houses a large number of artworks donated by Chagall, his wife, and his heirs to the State of France, including the 17 Biblical paintings inspired by the books of Genesis, Exodus and Songs. The museum is located in the Cimiez district with address Av. Dr Ménard, 06000 Nice, France. It stands on a vast plot of land donated by the city of Nice. The entrance to the museum is 10 euros and is opened from 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM it closes on Tuesdays. I bought my ticket in the museum without hassle and entered immediately. #MarcChagallMuseum #MarcChagall #FrenchRiviera #museum

Sadly it's in need of upkeep but the art is still spectacular. The fountain around the outside mural is empty. And the museum closes for lunch. And the red room is posed off. You can only view it from it's entrance.

Biblical Message cycle: The centerpiece, displayed over 12 walls in a distinctive rhombus configuration, delivers a striking visual narrative with intense color, spiritual depth, and dreamlike quality . Song of Songs paintings: A smaller, intimate series with red-dominated canvases blending sacred, carnal, and musical themes . Stained glass & mosaics: Notable are the stained glass in the auditorium and the Prophet Elijah mosaic overlooking a reflective pool—Chagall’s own in‑situ creations. Free parking available . Suggested visit time: At least 1 hour, more if attending an event or exploring the gardens . The Musée National Marc Chagall is a heartfelt tribute to the artist’s spiritual vision and remains one of the most authentic places to immerse in his biblical-themed art. It’s especially compelling for fans of Chagall or those seeking a serene, contemplative museum experience. For casual visitors, a one-hour visit is sufficient to appreciate its beauty and thoughtful architecture nestled in a Mediterranean garden.

Marché Aux Fleurs - Cours Saleya - Nice is a long-standing outdoor market known for its fresh flowers, local produce, and food products. Located in Nice's old quarter on the pedestrianized main street of Cours Saleya, this market operates daily except for Mondays when it transforms into a flea market.
Quite a small market. Closes early (1 pm) but beautiful smells and colours. Lots of other stuff there too, like some cheese, fruits and veg, oils, mushrooms etc.

If you're visiting Nice, start your Riviera food journey at the iconic Cours Saleya Flower Market. It’s not your average market — it’s a full sensory experience and one of the most authentic places to sample local flavors. Wandering through the colorful stalls, we were instantly drawn in by the scent of fresh blooms and sizzling street food. We tried socca, a crispy chickpea pancake hot off the griddle — warm, slightly smoky, perfectly salted. An absolute must. Just around the corner, we discovered a sweet surprise: a tiny tart with caramelized peanuts and salted butter caramel that was honestly unforgettable. Though it’s not a sit-down restaurant, Cours Saleya is a food lover’s paradise. Locals mix with visitors, the vibe is laid-back and lively, and everything feels real and rooted in the culture of the South of France. Whether you're grabbing a bite or just taking in the atmosphere, this spot is worth every minute.

A must see when in Nice! You have to try the SOCCA first round at 9am! But be ready for a long queue waiting for that local speciality. We stayed for 4 days in Nice in a Appartment and went every morning to the market to have freshly made fruit or vegetable juice and some freshly made Bakeries or the famous SOCCA. You can find anything there from fresh foods till souvenirs and paintings. The supplier are friendly and not intrusive. A must see and try when in Nice!!!

Such a charming market in the heart of Nice’s old town! You’ll find everything here — from fresh fruits and veggies to colorful flowers and quirky little souvenirs like butterfly and lizard decorations (so uniquely Nice!). The local spices are a treat for the senses, and the variety of cactus plants is surprisingly impressive. Don’t miss out on the fresh juices — they’re the perfect refreshment under the sunny Mediterranean sky. A must-visit when you’re in Nice!

Service was late, but the ceremony was beautiful.😇 Worth visiting, the organ music alone made the service outstanding!🙏

One of the first things to do after having icecreams at Fenocchio is to enter this Baroque cathedral in Place Rossetti. Established in 1699 and elevated to the status of Basilica in 1949, it houses the relics of St. Reparate, a woman martyred in Palestine, whose remains were brought to Nice in 1060. With 10 highly decorated chapels and an 11th one for baptism, this place of worship will easily take you 30-40 mins to admire if not more. Beware that churches here close at 6 PM, so try to enter atleast an hour earlier to beat the late afternoon crowds.

The Cathédrale Sainte-Réparate de Nice is a beautiful example of Baroque architecture located in the heart of Nice’s Old Town. Its richly decorated interior, with elegant columns, golden details, and stunning frescoes, creates a peaceful and spiritual atmosphere.

Park
Nature & Parks
Colline du Château, also known as Castle Hill, is a historic hilltop park in Nice that offers breathtaking views of the city and the sea. The climb up the stone steps to this hill is short but rewarding, with turquoise coasts and apricot-colored roofs spreading out before you as you ascend. From the summit, you can enjoy grand vistas of the Old Port with its yachts and sails, as well as distant views of the snow-dusted peaks of the Alps.
We reached the top by cart. The road itself is beautiful, the nature and remains that we saw prepared us for the view and the pigeons, wonderful, white ones. The view of the place is fantastic, and a large part of the park is left for children and adults to enjoy freely. A great place to spend the day. The view of the waterfall, from above, leaves an unusual impression. It may take a bit of sanding, but the experience is unforgettable.

The Colline du Château is also known as Castle Hill. It has several ideal lookouts / viewpoints from where you can see the best views of Nice. At the top there is even a terrace with a couple of benches, occasionally with a musician - there was a drummer when we were there. In addition to many scenic walks and viewpoints, there is also a waterfall, archeological ruins, playgrounds for children, and a cafe. It’s hard to miss seeing the Colline du Château from the famous Promenade d’Anglais and whether ascending either by steps on one side or a ramp on the other, it’s worth the effort. Spend an hour or the day as there are plenty of public restrooms and a couple of snack kiosks. Highly recommend!

Parc de la Colline du Château ended up being one of my favorite spots in Nice. The park is absolutely beautiful—lush pathways, peaceful corners, and some of the best panoramic views of the city and the Mediterranean. Whether you hike up, take the stairs, or use the elevator, the views at the top are completely worth it. I loved wandering around the ruins, the gardens, and the waterfall area. It’s the perfect place to take a break from the busier streets below and just soak in the scenery. The mix of history and nature gives the whole park a calm, charming vibe. Overall, Parc de la Colline du Château is a must-visit when in Nice—great for photos, relaxing walks, and unbeatable views of the coastline and Old Town.

Colline du Château offers the quintessential Nice experience! Ascending to the top rewards you with arguably the most spectacular panoramic views of the Baie des Anges, the bustling port, and the terracotta rooftops of Vieux Nice.

Amazing view point for Nice and a good day out for sure! There is a lift you can take to the top of the hill which definitely improves the accessibility. It is decently busy (but what else would you expect). Upon my visit there was 2 people I encountered who seemed to be a little pushy to get people to take pictures with their Doves in exchange for money.

Colline du Chateau, also known as Castle Hill is a wonderful walk with stunning views of Nice. The waterfall was spectacular.

Great experience! We are not seasoned hikers, so the 5 hrs hike was a challenge for us. It rewarded us with amazing sights, with help of our donkey Polo!

What a great time we had with Indiana and Paulo. My 5 years old son loved the experience. Indiana was very kind and shared with us the very rich history of the region. We will definitely do it again for a longer hike this time. Try it if you pass by!

What an amazing experience!! My wife and daughter and I have done a lot of hiking, but never with a pack animal. Indianna gave us a full explanation on walking and caring for our donkey, which put us right at ease during our self-guided three-day hike in late September this year. Her planned route for us showcased some beautiful and majestic sights of the southern Mercantour, and included two lovely campsites. And walking with our donkey 'Casimir' added a whole different, and rewarding dimension to hiking for us. He had a easy going demeanour and we thoroughly enjoyed travelling with him. Thank you, Indianna (and Casimir)!

(Translated by Google) An unforgettable 7-day bivouac experience. With our 3 children, Oslo and Pawnee accompanied us between passes and lakes, each more magical than the last. Our donkeys have been adorable, endearing and docile companions. And above all thanks to Indiana who gave us excellent advice on hikes and bivouac areas. In short, it's a return to basics, to simple things that the whole family appreciated. (Original) Une expérience en bivouac de 7 jours inoubliables. Avec nos 3 enfants, Oslo et Pawnee nous ont accompagné entre cols et lacs plus magiques les uns que les autres. Nos ânes ont été des compagnons adorables, attachants et dociles. Et surtout merci à Indiana qui nous a parfaitement conseillé sur les randos et les zones de bivouac. En résumé c'est un retour aux sources, aux choses simples que toute la famille a apprécié.

(Translated by Google) Very nice experience! An original way to hike in nature full of surprises, with grandiose landscapes and very rich flora! As for the donkeys, even if, for novices, the beginnings with them are a little complicated, we quickly find the rhythm and we become more attached to them every day. Bravo to Indiana for his kindness and professionalism and thank you for the beautiful memories stored during these three days of hiking. (Original) Très belle expérience ! Une façon originale de randonner dans une nature pleine de surprises, aux paysages grandioses et à la flore très riche !

Bravo à Indiana pour sa gentillesse et son professionnalisme et merci pour les beaux souvenirs emmagasinés pendant ces trois jours de rando.

Campsites French Riviera Menton - St Michel

Campground
Sights & Landmarks
Historic Sites
Campsites French Riviera Menton - St Michel is a modest hillside campground in Menton offering tent and caravan sites, as well as cabin rentals. It provides basic facilities including clean showers and restrooms. The staff are friendly and helpful, providing a full introduction to the camp upon arrival. The campground offers beautiful ocean views from its location in the hills of Menton, although it may not be suitable for those without a car due to its elevated position.
We stayed at the beginning of September for 4 nights in a camper, and it was an amazing experience. The hosts were very kind, helping us with advices on what to visit, how to get around Menton. We were able to do laundry (5€) and borrow a dryer. The spot we had reserved was near the reception so we used the bathrooms behind the reception. The bathrooms were clean, we had toilet paper. The only downside was that there was only one toilet, but we didn’t had to wait in line. We were able to get water from a spring right in the camping, with no extra payment. The camping location is beautiful, with a view of the sea and the city of Menton. But it is a bit difficult to get to the camping on foot, as there are a lot of steps. There is a bus that takes you from the city center to the camping, but it passes the camping only twice a day.
Mihaela P — Google review
Spent 1 night with 1 tent here. The view is great, staff is friendly. The campsite has decent and clean showers and toilets. You can easily access by foot from the town, but it is a steep and sweaty hike in the summer! 20 euros for the night (solo, 1 tent, 1 night, no car). Slightly noisy depending on where your spot is because you can hear cars/motorcycles from the roads.
Noemie V — Google review
Nice location for train excursions to nice and Monte Carlo as well as the town itself. Bathrooms older and not clean. Not even toilet paper provided. A bit pricey at Euro 48 per night off season. Approach is a bit challenging for larger motorhomes.

Camping with a great view to the sea. Great showers. Soap for the toilet but no toilet paper. Very expansive (20 euro for small tent and one person, I think 27 for 2) very nice receptionist. Stayed here for 3 nights at first, next year for 1 night and then again for 6, so I totally recommend it. Would come back if I can. Great sunrises at the end of September (beginning of September they come from the mountain), so you should wake up early :)

Maison Herbin is a craft jam factory that offers guided tours of its workshop, showcasing hundreds of jam varieties. Visitors can learn the secrets of making traditional and unique jams, from tangerine to mimosa flavors. The staff are knowledgeable and offer free visits to the kitchen three times a week, where visitors can witness the delivery of freshly picked fruits. The tour concludes with a tasting session featuring their award-winning raspberry, green lemon, and bitter orange jams.
Don't resist, just go inside the shop - the lady is extremely nice, helpful - explains everything you would like to know. Products are local, jams are also prepared there, on site.

Fellow Americans, if you’re lucky enough to visit Menton then you absolutely must visit Maison Herbin. It’s right in town and you’ll pass it many times if you’re in the central town (it’s small). Preserves make such a great souvenir and the myriad of choices, including award-winning flavors, will light up your mornings for weeks after returning. Classics you have to get are the famous Citron de Menton, Framboise is heavenly, just about everything else is magical.

The confiturerie offers free visits of the kitchen three times a week at 10.30am. The staff are very kind and knowledgeable and were able to answer any questions we had. We even witnessed the delivery of freshly picked oranges, lemons and kumquats which was great as normally you don't realise how many varieties there are. The tour ends with a tasting session of their many jams, including the gold winning raspberry, green lemon and bitter orange confiture. Then you can go to one of the two shops to buy whatever jam you fancy, and they also have a small selection of biscuits, teas and other things. Very enjoyable experience, although I did spend a small fortune on jam.

This review is for the awful customer service, not the actual products and facility. I had gone to this store twice in a day as I had repurchased other products , so one would assume the sales person would be even nicer and happier to see a returning customer, however that wasn’t the case for me, the sales women was extremely rude and unwelcoming. It was my first time visiting Menton and this store specifically, she didn’t even bother to greet me or even ask if I needed help, I saw others come in who I suspect were locals and she immediately greeted them and attended to their needs . I was scolded by her because I took a jam jar from the wrong queue and rather than guide me or politely tell me to take a different jar, she persisted to yell infront of others. This women was either having a bad day or prejudice towards foreigners and by the way, I speak French fluently, so there were no Language barriers. The customer service should match the integrity of the products. Extremely disappointed with my experience with this shop, despite it being extremely quaint.
Roukaya J — Google review
It's just a nice. You can find all the jam you want. The lady was really nice and gave us the possibility to try what we wanted to buy. I strongly suggest the jam with lemon and lavander. Also the smell inside the shop is good. You can pay with credit card as well. I suggest this place to everyone

The Jean Cocteau Museum - Severin Wunderman Collection, completed in 2011, is a modern-art museum located on the French Riviera. It showcases the diverse works of Jean Cocteau, including drawings, ceramics, paintings, and cinematographic pieces. The museum was made possible by art collector Severin Wunderman's donation of around 1500 Cocteau works to Menton in 2005.
I loved the layout of this museum. It’s accessible by foot and was an aesthetic collection of Jean Cocteau’s works.

Contrary to what is indicated, the Cocteau Museum is closed down since several years (due to storm damage) and looks abandoned. Part of the collection can be visited in the nearby "Bastion". The original Cocteau Museum building was anyway not a brilliant addition to the beautiful city of Menton, so let's hope that it will simply be razed one day.

On the promenade you will admire the magnificent architecturally modern building that houses the Jean Cocteau museum (Musee Jean Cocteau). It contains 2000 works by Jean Cocteau, the multi-talented French artist, painter, poet and director. He lived a large part of his life in Mendon and when he died he donated his works to the city. The Museum will delight those who visit it, especially art lovers.

Cemetery

The Cemetery of the Old Château, also known as Cimetiere du Vieux-Chateau, offers a serene escape from the lively atmosphere of the Provence-Alpes-Cote d'Azur region. Situated on a steep hill overlooking Menton, this historic cemetery provides a unique glimpse into centuries of life and history. As you wander through the graves, you'll encounter resting places of prominent figures from different eras.
Honestly.. my highlight from Menton! As weird and in a way wrong it seemed to visit a cemetery (in a sense - such places shouldn’t be crowded by tourists), this was breathtaking. It’s important to be respectful, silent and not too much all over the place. This visit was really special for me.
Megija Z — Google review
Excellent cemetery, up on a hill right in the old town. Easy walk up the old stairs, old style path. Well signed. Drinking water (tap) up top, not much else. Great views of sea, harbor, mountains, on both sides. Even a few benches to enjoy the solitude and the views, along with the permanent guests. Very interesting monument work, some recent, some as old as 1885 (maybe older), some clean and polished, some falling apart, some obviously expensive, some humble. All tell a short small story of loss, that somebody at some time, cared.

Good historic cemetery. Easy to get to from the seaside. Go up the Orange staircases and when you get to the church, make a sharp right up more stairs. These stairs take you to the cemetery through very quaint alleys and houses. Very well worth the steps to get to the cemetery.

Why I am a tombstone tourist at times? It is architecture, with art stones from different eras, the finely carved sculptures, they were meant to be seen and appreciated. I will always find something interesting about history as well. I am curious about the stories of the people whose lives are represented on the tombs. This peaceful abode's permanent residents include a Russian prince, the tomb of William Webb Ellis, legendary inventor of the sport. Aubrey Vincent Beardsley an English illustrator and author. Plus this lovely Kingdom of eternal rest has one of the most beautiful viewpoints of Menton. Look out over beautiful carved angels to the dazzling blue of the Mediterranean Sea💙.

Menton has been attracting European vacationers and retirees for 150 years and many of them ended their days here. And it would be hard to find a more scenic spot for a last farewell. There are residents here from the USA to Russia and most points in between. Many of the graves teeter on the brink of a precipice with no safeguarding for grieving relatives or inquisitive visitors but it is wildly beautiful. The British section is on a lower level accessed by a gate to the right of the main entrance where you will find escapees from Stalybridge and Wimbledon resting in the Mediterranean sunshine. Joining them for a few moments quiet reflection is rewarding.

About 10-15mins straight walk uphill from the basilica cathedral is the cemetery. There is only 1 exit and entrance which is beside a main road. Entry is free. On a late Thursday afternoon, it was very peaceful and there were only 3-4 other visitors. The cemetery offers a nice view of menton but the place itself is very charming with its medieval theme and random spots w wild roses growing 💕 Definitely worth a visit if you happen to visit the cathedral as well!

Not only was he extremely helpful and knowledgeable, he was also really caring when I was feeling a bit anxious. I didn't speak any French but this wasn't a problem at all as he was fluent in English. I highly recommend this centre.

I cannot speak for the course quality, but I want to tell my experience as an individual diver. We planned a dive with my dive partner here and we showed up on time in the morning. It was very chaotic, no one was really dedicated for us (Material, Diveplan etc) We got treated as additional weight to the ongoing dive course. There was no boat briefing and when I asked about the dive (dive briefing) they started explaining me the route. Only after a while I realised that they were making fun of me as they were eg. telling me: "After minute 31 and 43 seconds we will turn left." I never experienced such an unprofessional level in any diving school! Especially for such an important thing like a dive plan. Childish and unprofessional.

A great time. (Original) Très bien accueilli chez Palm beach par Olivier et Paolo.

Having to take my Level 2 course before the end of the year, I trusted Olivier, Paolo, and the Palmes Beach Menton team to support me during this training. I was looked after with great professionalism. The dives were divided into two phases: exercises associated with the Level 2 training / Deep dive and 0-35m exploration. The assisted and controlled ascent exercises were very well explained, with justifications for the suggested grips / ascent techniques.

(Original) 2025 - passage niveau 3 Je reviens une nouvelle fois pour passer mon niveau 3 et faire passer le niveau à deux de mes enfants. Si vous cherchez un club avec des enseignants d'une gentillesse extrême, des moniteurs au top, prévenants, compétents, sécurisants, un bateau hyper fonctionnel, des sites de plongée magnifiques, vous êtes au bon endroit. Mes 2 filles recommandent également et valident mes commentaires avec des ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ Merci Olivier, Paolo, Robi, Dudu, Vito et Sean pour cette super semaine ! 2023 - passage niveau 2 Une excellente expérience et une très bonne formation. Devant passer mon niveau 2 avant la fin de l’année, j’ai fait confiance à Olivier, Paolo et à l’équipe de Palmes Beach menton pour m’accompagner pendant cette formation. J’ai été pris en charge avec beaucoup de professionnalisme. Les plongées étaient découpées en 2 phases : exercices associés à la formation niveau 2 / Deep dive et exploration 0-35m. Les exercices de remontées assistées et contrôlées étaient très bien expliqués avec les justifications des propositions de prises / techniques de remontées. Concernant l’exploration, l’équipe est également très professionnelle et connait parfaitement les fonds marins de leurs sites de plongée. Qu’on soit plongeur débutant ou confirmé, on appréciera ces balades sous-marines bien menées et de débusquer murènes, poulpes, barracudas, homards et autres … Question matériel, le club est très bien équipé. Trimix, Nitrox ou air sont disponibles suivant les besoins. Le bateau est très fonctionnel, équipé de barres de palier au besoin. Je recommande vivement ce club et leurs formations. Un grand merci à Olivier et Paolo qui m’ont accompagné pendant cette semaine. 2025 – Level 3 certification I came back once again to complete my Level 3, and also for my two children to get their certifications lvl 1.

(Translated by Google) This was my first scuba dive. It was a wonderful experience; I found myself in another world, calm, quiet, and peaceful, supervised by very professional, caring, and pleasant instructors who paid close attention to safety. During the dive, they showed us things we might not otherwise see due to lack of experience: octopus hidden in a hole, schools of fish in the distance... The atmosphere on the boat was very friendly and relaxed. A big thank you for this wonderful time 👍😃 (Original) Il s agissait de ma première plongée bouteille. Ça a été une formidable expérience, je me suis retrouvée dans un autre monde, calme, silencieux, paisible, encadrée par des moniteurs très professionnels, bienveillants, agréables, très attentifs à la sécurité. Lors de la plongée, il nous montre ce qu on ne verrait peut-être pas faute d expérience : poulpe caché dans un trou, bans de poissons à distance...... L ambiance sur le bateau était très sympa, détendue. Un grand merci pour ce formidable moment 👍😃
