Keys facts about Antibes
An enchanting Old Town
Also known as Vieille Ville, this postcard-perfect part of town is the ideal place to get lost in. Winding streets weave their way into hidden-away market squares and there are quaint cafés and bars around every corner. It’s here you’ll find the fascinating Picasso Museum, housed in an ancient castle.
Say ‘bonjour’ to brilliant beaches
There are several beaches along this part of the coast, ranging from soft, sandy swathes to secluded, pebbled shores. And when you’re done with bronzing yourself, you can try a whole host of water-based activities like kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding. Why not go all out and hire your own yacht for the day?
Live that luxe life
See how the other half live on their glitzy yachts and eat out at some of the top, fine dining spots in town. Some even come with their own well-earned Michelin star. With Cannes right on your doorstep too, famed for its international film festival, a day trip to this dazzling seaside spot is not to be missed.
