ANTIBES
When to visit Antibes
 |
Winter sun |
| The French Riviera first became famous as a Winter holiday resort. in an effort to escape their own more hostile environments wealthy Northern Europeans traveled south to the gentle temperatures of the French Riviera. |
 |
Summer fun |
Post war Americans brought with them a lack of fear for the sun and a buoyant energy for outdoor activities. They brushed aside old European snobbery and, like a breath of fresh air, ignited a fresh interest in the Cote d'Azur as a summer destination.
|
Nowadays the Cote d'Azur is a year round escape with clear blue winter skies and close access to skiing. The spring months are the most fragrant and arguably the most beautiful while summer is simply the busiest with the most activities and the most fun to be had.
