Nice is a Mediterranean city on the Côte d'Azur known for the Promenade des Anglais and Vieux Nice. Pebble beaches, busy markets and French-Italian character give it a relaxed but lively feel.
Antibes is known for its walled old town, superyacht harbour and the Picasso Museum in the Château Grimaldi. It mixes Riviera polish with a lived-in historic centre and beaches.
Menton is a French Riviera town by the Italian border, known for its mild climate, lemons and Belle Époque charm. Its pastel old town rises above the sea, giving it a quieter, more traditional feel than many nearby resorts.
Grasse is a hillside town above the Côte d’Azur, known worldwide for perfume and traditional fragrance making. Its old centre, narrow lanes and Provençal atmosphere give it a calmer character than the Riviera resorts.
Saint-Raphaël is a Mediterranean resort town on the French Riviera, known for its beaches, marina and Belle Époque seafront. With the red rocks of the Massif de l'Esterel nearby, it feels lively yet relaxed and distinctly Provençal.
