Lérins excursions, Suquet strolls, palace spas, water sports, the Festival. The notebook of Cannes activities for 24 hours, a weekend or a whole week.
Six picks that actually entertain a six-year-old without ruining a parent's afternoon. Tested, ranked, what we'd skip.
Sunset cliffs, monastery wine, candlelit five-table dinner. Six moments to plan a weekend around.
Boat half-day, fruits de mer at Astoux, bar-hop in the Suquet. What works for a group of 6-10.
Paddle, jet-ski, Estérel cliffs, Marineland, rue Meynadier. Six things 11-17s actually want to do.
A 48-hour plan: Forville market, Lérins ferry, Carlton rooftop, Astoux. Hour by hour, no nightclub.
6pm apéro at La Bocca to a midnight Croisette walk. The honest after-work and after-dinner rhythm.
Spa, museum, cinema, long lunch. The locals' rainy-day moves — often better than the sunny version.
Empty Croisette, half-price palaces, Mougins afternoons, Sainte-Marguerite in February. The underrated season.
Seven minutes by train: a walled old town, a Picasso museum where he actually painted, a morning market. The easy day out.
Seventeen minutes by train: the world's perfume capital, three historic houses, a museum most visitors skip. The half-day, done right.
One of the Riviera's great coastal walks, a fine-sand beach, a botanical garden, a palace you admire from the path.
A perched village of galleries and cypresses, a new women-artists museum, a lotus pond, where Picasso ended his days.
Every Thursday at 5pm, what's on this weekend in Cannes and nearby — concerts, exhibitions, pop-up events.
