Ile Sainte Marguerite

Exceptional locations around France, including Antibes, will be open to visit on the Journées du Patrimoine - a European wide event inspired by by France’s Journées Portes Ouvertes which started in 1984.

Situated within the Royal Fort on Ile Sainte-Marguerite in the Bay of Cannes, this museum is a place not only of learning but also of rich history.

The Picasso museum is housed in the Chateau Grimaldi in the centre of the town of Vallauris. The chateau was built over a Roman fort in the 16th century.

In 1617, the Duke of Guise gave Jean de Bellon the task of building a fort intended to block sea access to Cannes. Constructed between 1624 and 1627 on the site of remains that dated back to Roman antiquity, at the time it was nothing more than a simple fortified house.

Cap d’Antibes is a stunning and famous headland of grand villas with sweet-smelling pines, Belle Époque hotels and rocky, tranquil coves.

This small beach and boat shelter is a popular spot, not only with sunbathers but also with keen photographers. The brightly coloured small boats bob in the crystal clear waters just off the beach.

This relatively narrow sand beach is a beach of two halves. The town end is mostly taken up with beach clubs offering a pricey, decadent day lolling about on a deckchair or a pontoon.

This is a small but popular public beach on the west coast of the Cap d'Antibes, to the north of Port de l'Olivette.

This is the main beach of Juan-les-Pins, and it’s also one of the widest. This is a great beach with lots of sand, a great view and a buzzing energy in the summer months.

Also known as Plages Les Pecheurs, Plage du Crouton is a small strip of fine white sand situated on the far side of the Port du Crouton.

Located just off the coast of Cannes, on the island of Sainte Marguerite is the beautiful La Guerite restaurant.

Opposite the Old Port, this wine bar has a great selection of wines that you can enjoy whilst looking out over the water, yachts and marina.

Moleskine armchairs, panoramic view, masterpieces, cracked oak floors, all complemented by a breathtaking view from the terrace where the sunset is magical.

Pam Pam and her team invite you to discover or rediscover a wide selection of cocktails, alcoholic or not.

Les Pirates Bar is in an exceptional location where you can savour delicious cocktails on the beach while enjoying wonderful views of the Mediterranean sea.

If you fancy a gamble head to the Eden casino in Juan les Pins. There are 180 different slot machines plus tables with roulette, black jack and poker.
