Antibes is a quiet seaside town in the French Riviera. Due to its close proximity to Nice, the largest city in French Riviera, access to Antibes is available via local train, bus or car. However, if you plan to visit multiple places near Nice on a day trip, driving is recommended.

Antibes is a beautiful city. Walking to the old downtown is easy and makes for excellent views.


Antibes features both standard French cuisine as well as local specials focusing on fresh seafood and produce from Provence. Scenic restaurants can be found around the port of Antibes, in the old town, and in Juan les Pins.





The Cap d’Antibes is the break between the Bay of Cannes to the south-west and the Baie des Anges to the north east. Old Antibes and the port of Antibes are on the mainland on the side facing the Baie des Anges, while Juan les Pins is on the Cannes side and the magnificent Fort Carré lies between the port of Antibes and the rest of the Baie des Anges.
