The Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur / Var region
Provence is renowned for its temperate climate, low rainfall, clear light and days of bright sunshine. The coastal areas, particularly the Alpes Maritimes have a mild, dry sunny winter, but inland the climate is harsher and in the mountains there is a considerable amount of snow. The markets in Provence seem more alive and fascinating than in any other region. There is everything on offer from the traditional Provencal crafts to the famous pottery and an enormous range of vegetables and food. The visitor who is seeking fashionable and elegant surroundings can choose between the animation of Cannes and Monte Carlo or the quieter more discreet life of Hyeres, Beaulieu, Menton, Cap Frrat or Cap Martin.
