ā morning ā old town and market
start your day in antibesā vieille ville (old town). wander through narrow streets with pastel buildings and local shops. have breakfast at charlotte macaron cafĆ© or boulangerie veziano for fresh croissants and coffee.
visit the marchĆ© provenƧal on cours massĆ©na ā full of cheeses, olives, spices, flowers, and handmade goods. the scents of lavender and herbs fill the air. pick up some fruit or snacks for later.
šØ late morning ā picasso museum and coastal walk
explore the musĆ©e picasso in chĆ¢teau grimaldi, where picasso once lived and painted. itās small but beautiful, with art, sculptures, and sea views.
then stroll along the old city ramparts by the water ā the view of the bay and the alps is stunning, especially in the sunshine.
š lunch ā seaside pause
try le michelangelo for elegant mediterranean dishes, le pātit cageot for a creative local menu, or chez loulou for something relaxed. for a quick option, grab a sandwich or salad and enjoy it by the harbor.
š afternoon ā beach and port vauban
relax at plage de la gravette, just outside the old town walls. itās calm, sandy, and great for a dip.
walk around port vauban afterward ā one of europeās largest marinas. admire the yachts, the bastion saint-andrĆ©, and the nomade sculpture by jaume plensa, a white figure made of letters overlooking the sea.
š evening ā cap dāantibes and dinner
head toward cap dāantibes for a peaceful coastal walk. start at plage de la garoupe and follow the sentier du littoral for sea views and rocky coves glowing in the sunset light.
have dinner at le 44 for fine dining, a lāatelier for wine and small plates, or alberto for pizza and prosecco with friends.
šø night ā drinks and stroll
end your evening at absinthe bar antibes ā a quirky underground spot with live music and a fun local vibe. or grab a gelato and walk by the harbor as the lights shimmer on the water.
š tip
wear comfy shoes for cobblestones, bring a swimsuit, and plan to stay for sunset ā antibes is calm, colorful, and perfectly mediterranean.
