Monaco Sights

  1. Digue de l'Avant Port

    Take a nautical stroll around the port and up the stairs next to Yacht Club de Monaco onto the Digue de l'Avant Port, a record-breaking floating dike, 28m wide, 352m long and weighing 163,000 tonnes, that doubled Monaco port's capacity overnight when it was unveiled in 2004. From its southern end a path winds along the coast and up through the shady Jardins St-Martin to Monaco Ville.
