Musée Picasso
Spectacularly positioned overlooking the sea, 14th-century Château Grimaldi served as Picasso’s studio from July to December 1946. The museum, which underwent substantial renovation, now houses an excellent collection of the master’s paintings, lithographs, drawings and ceramics, as well as a photographic record of the artist at work.

Vieil Antibes
Vieil Antibes is a pleasant mix of food shops, boutiques and restaurants. Mornings are a good time to meander along the little alleyways, when the marché (market) is in full swing. Check out the views from the sea walls, from the urban sprawl of Nice to the snowy peaks of the Alps and nearby Cap d’Antibes. The area has always been a magnet for artists and celebrities; to find out more, join the Accueil Touristique du Vieil Antibes on one of its two-hour guided tours (adult/child €7/free). Check for exact dates and bookings.
