The Cote d'Azur boasts an exceptional climate which has contributed largely to its fame for almost two centuries.
The climate, always mild in Winter, is never too hot in the Summer, thanks to the sea breeze...
It's not unusual to eat outside, wearing nothing more than a T-shirt in the middle of February, whilst the rest of France is fighting off the cold.
Originally a fishing village, Saint Jean Cap Ferrat is a seaside town with an ideal location, much sought after for its calm air.The Cap, situated to the far south, has given its name to the whole Peninsula, which shelters on one side the harbour of Villefranche and, on the other, the Baie des Fourmis of Beaulieu. For those interested in villas, museums and gardens, Saint Jean Cap Ferrat, like the rest of the region, has plenty to offer, often in the most enchanting surroundings. A road, entoured by the most luxurious properties, covers the lenght of the peninsula, 14 km in total, the sea on one side and the pine trees on the other. A series of seaside footpaths make its possible to walk completely around the Cap (between 1.1/2 and 2 hours walk) or simply to walk from the village of Saint Jean Cap Ferrat to Beaulieu sur Mer (approximately 30 minutes).
Beaulieu sur Mer boasts a privilegied location in between Nice and Monaco. A unique location with a perfect combination of sea mountains. A coast whose shores are bordered by palm trees and a luxurious vegetation, make it without a doubt one of the most beautiful towns of the Cote d'Azur... A "Ville Fleurie", the gardens of Beaulieu offer palm trees and olive trees hundreds of years old, surrounded by Mediterranean flowers.
Nice is an open invitation to let yourself go, to lose yourself in the narrow roads of its Old Town, before reaching the famous "Promenade des Anglais" and then discovering the heart of the city, with its rich architectural and cultural history, its parks and its gardens ? Nice boasts 19 museums and galleries, 32 classified historical monuments and 300 hectares of parks, gardens, public forests and green spaces, not forgetting 150 ponds and fountains.
Monaco has legendary location, between the last rocky patch of the Alps and the velvet blue of the Mediterranean, and borders between fantasy and reality. You will have no trouble fulfiling your dreams, whether alone, as a couple or as a family. The Principality of Monaco presents a multi-faceted world. It is a wealth of discovery, a place of high culture, with a large choice of museums, world-famous restaurants, and a particularly inviting range of casinos and shops... |
