Promenade des Anglais
Established by English expats in 1822, this wide, palm-lined promenade is a timelessly elegant place for a beachfront stroll. The Promenade des Anglais is lined with grand buildings, chief amongst them the 1912 pink-domed Hôtel Negresco. Another landmark is art deco Palais de la Méditerranée, saved from demolition in the 1980s and now part of a luxury hotel.
It’s generally warm enough to swim from April to October, when beaches teem with sun seekers. If you’re not much of a water babe, there are dedicated cycling and skating lanes on the promenade.
