Ready for the French Riviera at its absolute best? You need to visit the beaches in Nice. There’s a reason these stretches of sand regularly get visits from the world’s rich and famous; they are little pockets of style and serenity, and they don’t get overrun with tourists like other popular spots do.
Oh, and don’t be put off by the clientele. In our guide, we’ve included beaches, coves and réserves that are perfect for all budgets. Some of them sandy, some of them pebbly, and all of them are perfect for swimming. Generally speaking, you want to visit one of these gems between April and October when things are hot. Any earlier in the year and you might not get to see ‘em shine. Oh, and we've included beaches that are good for kids too. Nice has some of the best beaches in France (there, we said it), and these are the best beaches in Nice.
