Cannes is the 'star' of the French Riviera, famous for the yearly Film Festival in May and the glitzy hotels, cars, beaches and visitors attracted here. Exotic people and plenty of poodles (it is France, after all!), Cannes has something to offer year-round.
Cannes highlights include: The Old Town ('Le Suquet') - narrow winding streets filled with restaurants and small shops. Covered Market - cheese, flowers, vegetables and bags of local atmosphere. The Old Port - Admire the super yachts of the rich and famous. The Croisette - promenade along this stretch day or night to soak up the real Cannes atmosphere. The Beaches - Miles of glorious sandy beaches. Îles de Lérins - two beautiful islands in the bay of Cannes. From December - April, you can also reach a wide range of top-class ski resorts in only 1hr30mins by car.
