Outdoor sights in Côte D’Azur

  1. A

    Cap Taillat

    Cap Taillat is protected by the Conservatoire du Littoral (which bought it from Club Med after it tried to turn the precious, nature-rich cape into the world's largest Club Med in the 1970s). The tiny spit of sandy land today supports a range of important habitats, from seashore to wooded cliffs, and hides some of France's rarest plant species as well as a population of Hermann tortoises. Can be accessed from Gigaro.

    Tourist Train

    Tired legs? Blistered feet? Jump on the tourist train and see the sights whilst sitting on your behind. On summer afternoons, this little train is thoroughly enjoyable. It departs from the port to the beaches every half hour - call or check with the tourist office for departure times.
