The Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur / Alpes-Maritimes region
The Cote d'Azur is reputed to be one of the most beautiful places on the Mediterranean, the amazing colours and light has inspired many famous writers and artist including Monet, Picasso, Renoir and Cocteau, who all lived in the area.
The sea is delightful for swimming, paddling or fishing in. For the more adventurous all the water sports can be found here; diving, water skiing or for the kids (big kids as well) the famous Seaworld in Biot which will delight and entertain you.
WIth Italy, Monaco, Menton, Nice, Antibes, Vence, Grasse and the Lakes and Alps all close by there is so much to see and do.Visit the web site www.beyond.fr/villages/villefranche.html to get an idea of just how much there is to do.
Villefranche Sur Mer / Col de Villefranche area
Location, location, location, need I say more. Well yes I do!! Lets put it this way if it is good enough for Queen Victoria and many, many other royals since and film and rock stars its probably good enough for you! Close to here Tina Turner, Bono and Elton John have their villa and its even good enough for Paul Allen of Microsoft and his billions.
f it is culture you seek there are a surfeit of museums, art galleries and Roman sites to explore. Concerts and music festivals are in full swing in the summer and I do mean swing with the Nice and Juan les Pins Jazz Festivals. There are wonderful outdoor classical concerts many with firework displays. Villefranche seems to have a firework display for some occasion or another every week in the summer!!
Perhaps a little flutter appeals to you, well in that case you have a great choice with Monaco, Cannes and Nice who all have first class Casinos.
For those of you who love to shop Monaco, Cannes and Nice will I am certain more than satisfy your appetite. Particularly good for interesting designers as well as the usual top labels is Rue Antibes in Cannes.
Appetite did I say? Gourmet? Eating and savouring the wine is the favourite pastime here and in nearby Italy . You will not be disappointed by the variety of places to eat or just to stop and take a coffee or drink a pastis or two while watch the world go by and all the glamorous people who adore this area. Maybe even catch sight of a famous face or two! And wine? Did I mention the variety? Why not visit nearby vineyards and sample first hand the local Provence wine. Adore Olive Oil? Why not visit an Olive Mill and see how it is produced. There is so much to do you will be spoilt for choice.
I think you will soon understand why year after year people return to the Cote D'Azur.
