Antibes

Antibes, well known for its sun-and-sea, is a family-friendly destination, and centrally located for car day trips along the Cote d'Azur. Originally called "Antipolis," the Romans settled here for five hundred years (great location on the Mediterranean). The old town, Vieil Antibes, is beautifully preserved with pedestrian streets and promenades along the ocean. One family who rented a house in old town Antibes writes, "It was heaven for us."

   

Go the beach – Near the old town, Plage de la Gravette is perfect for families – flat sand beach and sparkling clear waters of the Mediterranean. No need to bring beach toys, stores are well stocked.
