Visit Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat with the Nice Côte d’Azur Metropolitan Convention and Visitors Bureau
‘Calm, luxury and voluptuousness’: these words ideally describe this cape located between Nice and Monaco.
The old fishing village became a holiday haven in the early 20th century, with the arrival of wealthy foreign families, who built vast estates, like Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild. Many artists chose to stay there: Jean Cocteau decorated Villa Santo Sospir.
An 10 km coastal footpath offers exceptional panoramas. Beaches and creeks are an invitation to relax, while a wide range of water sports make it ideal for sportier stays.
