The incomparably blue sea has earned the French Riviera the nickname the "azure blue coast". The area between Monaco and Toulon is not only the total beach-life experience with a lot of "chic", but also offers a rural, mountainous hinterland. Worth a visit is the mountain village Bergdorf Èze with its medieval castle ruins. Nature lovers and mountain bikers will discover the red rocks of the Esterel sublimely shimmering in the sun. Those who don't want to charter a millionaire yacht in Saint-Tropez can enjoy a canoe trip through the green valley of the Argens - or go diving at the reefs of the Hyères Islands rich in fish.
The heart of the city beats on the Place Masséna with its striking black and white pavement and on the city beach, where you can stroll on the elegant Proménade des Anglais. The probably largest shopping mile in Nice is the Nicetoile with about 120 shops. Culture enthusiasts can look forward to museums of modern art with works by Matisse and Chagall. In the restaurants on the French Riviera you can enjoy the typical cuisine of the country. The Mediterranean version of stuffed vegetables, the Petit Farcis, also tastes good to many children. Or how about ratatouille, freshly caught grilled bream or a crispy fresh Nice salad? In many camping restaurants not only children look forward to the many pizza variations inspired by nearby Italy.
