Antibes, the perfect summary of the Riviera as a medieval village on the seafront with the Alps as a background

Antibes offers nice walks along the port watched for by Vauban fortress and full of billionaires’ yachts, the ramparts dominating the waves, the narrow street and the covered market.


It has gorgeous sandy beaches.Picasso museum in Grimaldi (the Prince of Monaco's family) palace is really unique as the painter was invited to stay there and gave the paintings he made during his stay.


If you are a fan of literature, you can see the villas where Scott Fitzgerald & Murphy who was the Fitzgerald’s model for Gatsby used to live in.
