Plage des Fourmis

Beaulieu-sur-Mer is a small city about 8 km from Nice and just a few stops away on the train. The main attraction in Beaulieu, aside from the beaches, is Villa Kerylos, a luxurious villa from the 1800’s that was designed and decorated in ancient Greek style. You have views of the villa from Plage des Fourmis, which is right next to the small port of Beaulieu-sur-Mer. This is a great beach to enjoy before or after you do a 1-hour private boat cruise on a solar-powered boat around Cap Ferrat! Sand: The beach is fine gravel, which is decent to walk on in bare feet. The clearest water is on the south end of the beach. The water stays pretty shallow close to the shoreline, making it a good family beach. Facilities: There are bathrooms and showers on the beach, and lifeguards in summer. Beach Clubs: Anao Plage is the beach club on Plage des Fourmis, which has a sit-down restaurant and beach lounger rentals. You can get more info and make reservations

St-Jean-Cap-Ferrat

deally located between Nice and Monaco, the port of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat represents the French Riviera in all its splendor and is highly sought after by visitors from around the world. Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat enjoys an extraordinary microclimate, much coveted by boaters, who, just outside the port, can enjoy enchanting anchorages such as the Pointe de Saint Hospice, Les Fosses, Les Fossettes, the bay of Villefranche-sur-Mer, and more. The Old Port, now known as Quai Lindbergh, was built by convicts from Villefranche between 1840 and 1876 and is a true jewel of French maritime heritage. In 1972, the new marina was inaugurated. From 2016 to 2019, the port underwent a complete renovation. The port can accommodate 550 boats. Numerous restaurants and shops line the quays.

Plage Paloma - Anse de la Scaletta

Paloma Beach is situated in the most charming little cove on the peninsula of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat. A rock ledge sticking out into the water with rock poking out of the surface The section of the coastal walkway that leads up to Paloma Beach is incredibly charming, with a winding stone path with views of the beach as you arrive. The beach itself is rather small and the vibe is distinctly laid back and chill. Like Plage Cros dei Pin, you get beautiful views back towards Beaulieu-sur-Mer and along the coastline of France. Sand: This beach is rocky, and you’ll want a decent towel or blanket, as well as water shoes or sandals, to really enjoy the beach and water here. Facilities: There are bathrooms, showers, and changing rooms available for guests of the beach club. Beach Clubs: The Paloma Beach Club is an upscale spot on the Plage Paloma that has welcomed many celebrity guests over the years. You can enjoy their classy restaurant for lunch or dinner.
