Things to do
BEACHES
Prepare for sun, sea and striped umbrellas – the Côte d'Azur offers beautiful beach resorts and endless sandy shores. See and be seen as you dip into the glittering blue ocean in Saint Tropez. Stroll from city streets straight onto white sands in Nice, or admire the beautiful curving cove at Èze, which affords views of mountains and green hills from the shore.
FOOD & DRINK
The Côte d'Azur is part of Provence, so expect fresh salads, fish and local olive oils and wines aplenty. Tuck into a salade nicoise, which hails from the Côte's own Nice. Or enjoy a decadent plateaux des fruits de mer, piled high with lobster, oysters and crab while gazing out over the Mediterranean. Cocktails are a Côte d'Azur speciality, so sip away as you watch the sun set and plan your night on the town.
NIGHTLIFE
After a day soaking up the sun, shopping and fine dining on the Riviera, you'll want to take part in its renowned nightlife. Start the evening in a luxurious lounge overlooking the twinkling lights of the harbour as you sip a glass of wine. Then sample elegant cocktails in an exclusive bar before donning your dancing shoes and heading to a chic Côte nightspot.
