The beaches of the city of Nice on the French Riviera along the Cote d'Azur in Provence, France follows the Baie des Anges for over 7 kilometers. There are many public beaches but, there are also the private beaches which belong to the expensive hotels.
The beaches stretch from the Old Town (Vieux Ville) of Nice in Provence, starting at the Vieux-Port, the old port, and continue on to the Nice International Airport. To leisurely walk along the Nice and Baie des Anges waterfront just find the Promenade des Anglais or, if energetic enough, jog or roller blade the whole 7 kilometers.
The beaches of Nice on the Cote d'Azur in Provence are not sand but 'shingle', stones smoothed from years of being washed by the tide of the...
... Mediterranean Sea. Although the shingle doesn't cling in-between toes or get into the picnic lunch it can be quite hard to walk on, and of course the children cannot build sand castles. On the plus side one can become a proficient stone-skipper, and sun-bathe without getting 'gritty'. The people of Nice and tourists both take advantage of the shingle beaches to laze in the hot sun of the Cote d'Azur in Provence, France.
