Antibes

With its ancient stone architecture and laid-back vibe, Antibes stands out from the rest of the French Riviera and offers narrow cobblestone streets full of shops and quaint sidewalk cafés.

A stroll beyond the ancient walls reveals sandy beaches and a busy harbor that becomes home to over a thousand yachts every summer.

By night, Antibes’ few vibrant bars are packed with an international mix of yacht workers, university students, young locals, and European vacationers, which can make for some rowdy nights in this otherwise quiet town.
