Travel Tips - France
France, home to some of the finest cuisines in the world and the best wines to wash it down with. From the coastline of Brittany to the splendour of Paris, the beauty of the Loire Valley, and further south the glorious wilderness of the Camargue with its wild horses, and the opulence of Cannes and Monte Carlos on the beautiful Mediterranean south coast, France is a tourist's dream. From the simplicity of a baguette, some wonderful French cheese and good bottle of red, to the gastronomic delights of fois gras and a glass of sauterne, France is a food gourmet's delight.
Whether it's a Gite holiday with time to relax in the countryside or a luxury apartment close to the stunning sights of Paris, France has it all, and then some. If you haven't yet been, it simply has to be done!

It was the playground for the rich and still has a lot of charm and character. Nice old streets to wander and lots of shops for linen, pottery, glassware etc
The best beaches are here! Antibes Plage du Ponteil and Plage de La Salis. Juan les Pins is also another great beach and very close. Very safe for kids as its shallow for a long way out.
Lovely covered market to walk around close to the entrance to Old Antibes near to the harbour. Best to go to the market in the morning as it closes early afternoon
Located close to Antibes, Marineland offers a number of water slides and pools to splash around in as well as dolphin, killer whale and sea lion displays. Prices start from around 26 euros for adults and 21 euro per child, but family tickets are also available.
Famous for the film festival, luxury yachts and a lovely sandy beach. From May to the end of Septemebr there are firework displays in the bay every week - usually on Friday and Saturday. If you think you have seen a good firework display wait until you see the ones in Cannes. No expense is spared and they are spectacular. All done to music. How cool is that!!
All of the displays are syncronised to music and it really is a show not to be missed if you are on the Riviera. The best place to stare up at the sky and watch the 30-45 minute show is the beach. However it can be busy, so as the displays start at 10pm, it's usually best to get on the beach by 9.30pm.
Truly spectacular.
