Tourism Website for Nice Côte d'Azur
There are many beautiful beaches in the area. We recommend the following:
Plage de Passable, Plage Petite Afrique, Plage Cros Dei Pin
Our Google Map includes additional beaches but you may want to google the beach to make sure it is to your liking
Explore and learn about the rich history of the sovereign city-state Monaco and party the night away!
Nice is ~15-20 min drive from Beaulieu Sur Mer. You can walk along Promenade des Anglais, explore Vieille Ville, grab a bite and people watch in Massena Square.
There are countless hikes throughout the region that will give you stunning views of the French Rivera, but here our several that we believe are worth mentioning
St-Jean-Cap-Ferrat Hikes
The Costal Path of St-Jean-Cap-Ferrat is a 3-miles around the eastern peninsula of Cap-Ferrat. If you look towards mainland, you'll be able to see the town of Èze ;)
The Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat Loop is 4-miles and will take you around the southern peninsula of Cap-Ferrat
Èze Treks
The Coast to Èze - Sentier Nietzsche: Èze-Bord-de-Mer is a top rated hike that takes you from the coastline up to the city of Èze. It is considered a difficult hike with an elevation change of 1,500 ft. If you do decide to make this trek, bring water.
Fort de la Revère to Mont Bastide via Èze is a beautiful, but long, 5-mile hike that gives you a phenomenal view of Èze with a backdrop of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat.
Nice (they're also very nice) Treks
Coastal Path: Nice to Villefranche-sur-Mer is a beautiful, 4-mile, one-way trek that takes you along the water out from Nice towards Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat.
Mont Alban Loop is a 6-mile loop trail that will bring you to the top of Mont Alban giving you a beautiful view of the French Rivera and Nice.
There are obviously many dinning options to choose from while visiting Côte d'Azur. While deciding where to dine, resources like Tripadvisor and The Fork, which focuses more on elevated dining experiences, should help you find phenomenal dining locations.

There are a number of châteaus throughout the South of France, but here are some honorable mentions that would be worth exploring if you're a history buff.
In addition to the planned tour on the 2nd, the villa is a magnificent palace surrounded by nine themed gardens: French garden, Spanish garden, Florentine garden, stone garden, Japanese garden, exotic garden, Provençal garden and rose garden. It is a beautiful place to explore. Inside you can find a Tea Restaurant, which can serve as a great spot to recharge!
Make sure to visit the Provençal Market in Beaulieu-sur-Mer! It takes place on Saturday.
