WALK THE CAP D’ANTIBES PATH

To see in Antibes: one of the most beautiful headlands on the Côte d’Azur!

To completely get away from it all, take the « Sentier de Tirepoil »: this former customs path, which runs along the coast of Cap d’Antibes, has become a protected tourist trail – an unforgettable walk in the wild with intimate little coves and past the huge private properties that dot the coastline. Don’t miss this invigorating walk, accessible for everyone – it’s a must when you’re in Antibes. Allow 2 hours there and back between the Garoupe beach and the famous Villa Eilenroc.

GO FOR A DIP ON LA SALIS BEACH

Magnificent sandy beach with views of old Antibes and the Garoupe lighthouse

On the outskirts of Cap d’Antibes and close to the centre, this beach with its fine sand, clear waters and « Blue Flag » rating, is ideal for a relaxing family day in Antibes. Take advantage of the small beachfront kiosks to enjoy a delicious pan-bagnat on the beach – a local custom! In the evening, La Salis beach is also ideal for picnics with family or friends.

WANDER AROUND PORT VAUBAN

Antibes harbour: one of the largest marinas in Europe!

A short distance away, head to Antibes’ ramparts to see the figure of Le Nomade by Jaume Plensa. Facing the sea, overlooking Port Vauban and its Quai des Milliardaires, the monumental 8 meter high work by the Catalan artist is truly unmissable… the greatest of great men and among the best places in Antibes for a photo.
