Nice's iconic beach stretching along the legendary Promenade des Anglais - one of the world's most famous beaches. Rounded pebbles typical of the Riviera cover the shore instead of sand, but the crystal-clear turquoise Mediterranean more than compensates. The beach spans 7 km with a mix of free public sections and private beach clubs. The promenade's signature blue chairs are perfect for people-watching. Busy but quintessentially French Riviera. Bring beach shoes for comfort on the pebbles.
