| The Alpes-Maritimes possesses one of the most prestigeous and famous coasts in France - the Cote d’Azur where palaces from the Belle Epoch rub shoulders with luxurious holiday resorts. |
Situated in the south-east of France, the Alpes-Maritimes hugs the Mediterranean to the Italian border in the east. 80% of the region is dominated by the mountain and therefore has the distinctive peculiarity of having a steep landscape close to the coastline. Sea and mountain are only as far as one hour by car and the amount of sunny days are equal. At certain times of the year it is difficult to choose between a day of water-skiing and a day of downhill skiing! |
