Beaches in Nice

Pebble Beaches

Nice’s coastline is defined by the seven-kilometer Promenade des Anglais, a historic walkway commissioned by the English aristocracy in the 1820s. The shore consists primarily of smooth grey pebbles, known locally as galets, which characterize the Baie des Anges. This selection includes public stretches like Plage de la Réserve and established private beach clubs such as Beau Rivage, which provide amenities like restaurants, sunbed rentals, and wooden pontoons for easier water access.
