SOUTH OF FRANCE TRAVEL GUIDE 🇫🇷

If you’re planning to visit the French Riviera/Côte d’Azur this summer, NOW is the time to start planning! ☀️ Hot spots in the South of France book up months in advance - so make sure you make your hotel, restaurant, & beach club reservations ASAP!

🔖Travel Guide

✈️ Airport: Nice Côte d’Azur Airport

🚗 Transportation: Rent a car! It’s easy to get around & everything is relatively close. Driving times to popular cities (South to North) -

Saint-Tropez to Cannes - 1.5h
Cannes to Nice - 30min
Nice to Monaco - 30min

I recommend basing yourself in either Cannes or Atibes for their central location & easy access to St. Tropez, Nice, Monaco, & more.

🏩Hotels: @carltoncannes (also home to one of the best Cannes beach clubs) or @hotelducapedenroc in Antibes

🏖️ Beach Clubs in Cannes: @la_guerite is the top beach club. It’s on a private island so it requires a boat transfer. I recommend booking the 3:30 time slot for some classic, dancing on tables w/ napkins twirling into the evening 🕺 Other favorite beach clubs include @carltoncannes, @annexbeachcannes, @miramarplage, & @lamomecannes

🍽️ Restaurants in Nice: @lapetitemaison_nice for laid back, @leplongeoir for the best views, @mirazurrestaurant for 3 Michelin Stars. Don’t forget to try a Salade Niçoise while in Nice!

🍷Where to hang out/be bougie in Saint-Tropez: @diordeslices, @loulourestaurants, & @leclub55official

🗺️ More Day Trips:
Monaco - Monte-Carlo Casino/Circuit de Monaco
Èze - Town & Le Jardin Exotique

From here, if you want to carry on your trip to Provence, I recommend booking a hotel like @villagallici in Aix-en-Provence or @tuba.club/ in Marseille, & fly out of Marseille Airport.

🚙 Cannes to Marseille - 2 hours
Cannes to Aix - 2 hours
Marseille to Aix - 30 minutes

🪻Aix-en-Provence: wander the charming streets, eat madeleines from Madeleines de Christophe & callisons from @leroyreneofficiel, drink a panaché, enjoy Provençal cuisine at La Bastide Bourrelly, & visit one of the lavender fields (see lavender reel for details.)

🌊Marsielle: Visit the Calanques & Plage de La grande Mer in Cassis, Dine at @tuba.club/ or @lavillamadie (3 Mi
