Hello, nice

The Greeks and Romans did it, as did rich lords, film stars, artists, and thousands of tourists. They were just going to pass by but instead remained in Nice and along the Riviera. Some for just a few weeks, others for months and years. They were too captivated by the light, enchanted by the scents, and charmed by the taste of olives and wine. Additionally, a Nice Nouveau has evolved – a sassy Mediterranean metropolis with pulsating nightlife, modern hotels, and daring art galleries. All this with a chance to dabble their toes in a turquoise sea.

Lérins Islands

The islands of L’île Sainte-Marguerite and L’île Saint-Honorat are two beautiful getaways from the city of Cannes. Just a boat ride away from the harbour, behind the palatial cinema, you can travel to these islands which are fifteen and thirty minutes respectively away from Cannes. L’île Sainte-Marguerite used to be a prison island, where a mysterious, masked prisoner was held in the 17th-century. The peaceful, flower-decked island of Saint-Honorat houses a monastery.

Modern & Contemporary Art Museum (MAMAC)

Nice wants to make a name for itself as a centre for pop art. Admire Nice’s famous local artists such as Ben and Niki de Saint Phalle in this imposing building. The latter has donated 170 of her works, but there are also works of Andy Warhol, Picasso, and the like.

Musee de la Castre — Musée des explorations du monde

Musee de la Castre is a small museum but well worth a visit, located on the hills of old Cannes, in the ruins of a medieval castle and classed as an historic monument. It is home to an extensive collection of antiquities, mainly from the Mediterranean and the Middle East. Musee de la Castre is a must for art lovers and ethnographers alike.

Place Massena

Place Massena is known for its striking architecture, including a stunning fountain and colourful buildings with red facades, it is a popular spot for both tourists and locals. Whether you want to take a leisurely stroll or sit down and people-watch at one of the many cafes, Place Massena is a must-visit destination for anyone travelling to Nice.
