Antibes is my favourite town in the French
Riviera. Ever since I watched the movie The Killer’s I have dreamt of going to
this place. I have researched that they have shot so many scenes in this movie
in this small town. I was so happy when I saw several scenes in the beautiful
town of Antibes. You will also find the
billionaire’s quay where you will see so many yachts parked here. The Picasso
Museum (Chateau Grimaldi). My advice for
you is to do a walking tour of the narrow streets of the old town. Antibes is a
very small town you can tour it for a
day. I suggest that you start your tour by shopping at the Marche
Provencal. This is where you can find lot of good deals such as cheeses,
spices, macaroons, fresh fruits, wines and dried meat. Then you can go to the
church and make a wish since it is your first time to go to their church. After
that you can visit the Picasso Museum, then have lunch at Le Romantic where you
can enjoy fresh seafood dishes. You can
burn all you ate by walking at Plage de
La group where you can enjoy a scenic beach. Finish your day by swimming at
Hotel Du Cap Eden Roc where admission is only 75 Euros which includes swimming
at their pool and usage of pool side mattress. Antibes is one of the most
beautiful and historical place in the Coast of the French Riviera. I think that
it is a must see town when you go here. You will enjoy your stay here and it’s
truly worth the money.
Must See Sights:
Picasso Museum
at Chateau Grimaldi- This is the original
castle of Grimaldi Family. This is a must see when you go to Antibes since you

Antibes at Cours Massena. You can shop so many things such as cheeses, spices,

the Mediterranean Coast.
