Tour du Cap d'Antibes
Walk between the crashing blue waves and the white limestone cliffs
When you think of the Cap d'Antibes you tend to think prestigious villas and residences for billionaires, nestled in the green oasis of the peninsula.
This path winds its way around the coast between those homes and the deep blue Mediterranean sea. Returning through the small old roads inside the Cap d'Antibes this is a great short circuit perfect for everyone.
