Antibes is a beautiful walled old town located just 20 minutes from Nice and 15 minutes from Cannes. It is wonderfully placed at the gateway to the spectacular Cap d'Antibes. The pretty vielle ville with it's narrow cobble stoned streets rambling from one square to the next has lots of lovely cafes, restaurants and great shops. Not to be missed is the walk along the town's old ramparts where you can view the most beautiful scenic coastline with the town as backdrop. Another must see is the daily Marche Provencal, with it's wonderful veg, fish, meat, cheese, spices etc. The famous Picasso Musee is another must see. During the summer there is a variety of street entertainment to add to the holiday atmosphere. The deep water Port Vauban just outside the old town is a lovely evening stroll to view the amazing boats on Millionaires Row. There are lots of safe sandy beaches nearby. Bus and Train are also close by. There are terrific walks beyond the town.
Other Activities: All major activities are available within a short distance - talk to owner
Golf: There are a number of golf courses in the immediate vicinity - approx 20 minutes drive. We are both golfers and were impressed with one particular course near Valbonne/Biot. The cost was approx 62 for a round of golf and we thought the course was very nice. There are numerous courses in the surrounding area - Cannes, Monte Carlo, Esteral etc. etc. Details can be viewed on the internet
Ski: Ski Resorts - Auron and Isola 2000 are located approx 1 hour from the apartment. There are also bus services available from Nice. Details are available from the tourist office in Antibes
