On the less pricey side, but offers great seafood pasta and pizza, High quality pizza and Attimi - a kind of foccacia. Service can be slow, the friendliness makes for it.

Great restaurant. My husband and I really enjoyed our meal here. Nice, big servings and delicious pasta. Reasonably priced for the area. Service was good (not great as the waiters have many tables, but you're still treated well by the kind staff).

This is the best way to oversee Nice. You can come up via the road from both the Old Nice side or Port side, or you can scale the steps up the beach side by the start of the Promenade du Anglaise. There's a cafe and souvenir shop at the summit.

800s monastery with gardens overlooking Nice, plus paintings by Brea, a museum & Matisse's grave Amazing spot where you can see the whole city of Nice, as well as the Roman ruins and the Amphiteathre.

Elegant 17th-century villa containing a museum of paintings by Matisse & painted mainly in Nice I enjoyed wandering this museum. It's the perfect setting for the works of Henri Matisse; a beautiful villa surrounded by olive trees with the light just wonderful. It costs €10 now but I consider this fair. The exhibition includes some of his sculptures which I'd not seen before

Entertainment & Activities

Bien sûr il s'agit d'un 9 trous compact, mais il faut jouer "juste" les distances ne sont pas longues, mais le parcours est étroit et les obstacles (y compris l'eau !) sont nombreux. Pas si facile qu'il n'y paraît, excellent pour remettre en place le "petit jeu"

Not the best water park I've been to. There are some good slides here, but a lot of them are quite slow. The queues were long too, but that's to be expected at this time of year. Not sure I'd go back, but it wasn't too bad. Children will love it.

You can get the tickets at the tourist office in Cannes for 24€/child, with a free ticket added per child. So a family of 4 just pays 48€. That's OK for the park. The park itself isn't very special, apart from the killer whales Some people think this is cruel to these animals.

Amusement park outdoors. Perfect for family time with children. Lots of activities nature related. Great value for money. If they only find a solution to the mosquitoes. C'est vraiment un super parc pour les petits comme pour les grands ! Pleins d'activité différentes, de coin pic-nique, de coin de jeux, escalade, repos, etc. Le snack est franchement bon.
