Antibes is known for its yacht marina, the largest in Europe, with its International Quay, which is home to some of the biggest ’Megayachts’ in the World, its Provencal market, Picasso museum and medieval Ramparts.
It has its own sheltered, sandy beach, and is within walking distance to several others.
The Provencal fresh produce market runs every day in the summer and is not to be missed. In the evenings it turns into an outdoor restaurant scene, sharing the space with local artists’ stalls. Just behind the market is Antibes’s Cathedral, the setting for outdoor concerts in the summer months.
The Old Town is full of lovely cobbled shopping streets, pavement cafes and countless restaurants to choose from.
Thursdays is market day in the Old Town with thousands of stalls spread all over, selling anything from bikinis to carpets. On Saturdays, Place National is the setting for an Antiques market.
Nearby Juan-les-Pins is a major holiday destination, with a casino and nightclubs.
