Downtown Cannes
The year in Cannes is punctuated by the festivals and other major events of its cultural life. Although it often finds itself in the film spotlight, Cannes is also a wonderful place for a vacation getaway.
Take a walk down la Croisette among the luxury hotels, go shopping on the prestigious rue d'Antibes, or stroll through the old town of Le Suquet. Drink in the atmosphere at the Provençal markets in the famous Place Forville and the secondhand merchants of Les Allées.
More athletic vacationers won't feel left out either because, thanks to its location, any sporting activity you can think of can be played in or near Cannes. And as you explore the city, don't forget to take a walk along the coast, where the weather is always pleasant and sunny!
