Avenue Princess Grace in Monte Carlo (around 30 minutes from Villa Sauternes) is worth a visit for several reasons. On the way there, you pass by Monaco’s exclusive guest harbour where one yacht is bigger than the next. The world-renowned casino is next door and, if you like nice cars, there is no better road anywhere in the world than the Avenue Princess Grace. In spite of the expensive surroundings, the restaurants on the beach are very good value for money, and the sea is so clean that you would think you were swimming in an aquarium.

Nice’s world-renowned beach promenade, Promenade des Anglais, lies 5 minutes from Villa Sauternes. Here, the sea is an absolutely fantastic turquoise colour. After the beach promenade, you come to a number of different beach clubs offering both very good food and various water sports. The beach consists of round stones, so if you have sensitive feet, you should take a pair of pool sandals with you. A visit to Promenade des Anglais is a must when you are in Nice!
