Yes, I run the Antibes coastal path either early in the morning or even in the evening. It's cooler. Living in Antibes, there are some very beautiful places and landscapes. 😉👍

Fort Carré... is a historic military fortification located in Antibes. It is an iconic monument in the region, known for its star-shaped architecture and its strategic location offering panoramic views of the coast and the Mediterranean Sea. Here are some key facts about Fort Carré: * History: It was built in the mid-16th century by order of King Henry II of France. At that time, Antibes was an important border town with the County of Nice (then part of the Duchy of Savoy). The fort served to defend the city and monitor this border. It was later improved by the famous military engineer Vauban in the late 17th century. The fort remained a strategic site until the 19th century, when Nice was annexed to France and the border was extended. It was decommissioned from military use in 1860. * Architecture: The fort is characterized by its star-shaped shape with four bastions (called Bastion Nice, Bastion Corsica, Bastion Antibes, and Bastion France). Its patrol path rises 43 meters above sea level, offering a 360-degree view. * Protected Natural Site: Fort Carré is located on the Saint-Roch peninsula and is surrounded by a 4-hectare preserved natural area, classified as a Natura 2000 site and a ZNIEFF (Natural Zone of Ecological, Faunistic, and Floristic Interest). This site is owned by the Conservatoire du Littoral (Coastal Protection Agency). * Visits: The fort has been open to the public since 1998 and offers guided tours (strongly recommended, or even mandatory depending on the season) that allow visitors to explore the ramparts, towers, and barracks. Information on the fort's history and strategic importance is provided. Children's game booklets are also available. *Fun fact: Fort Carré served as the setting for the James Bond film "Never Say Never Again" (1983). In short, Fort Carré in Antibes is a fascinating historical site that offers insight into the region's military history, all in a magnificent natural setting with breathtaking views.

Well-designed dedicated cycle path

The hike along the coastal path in Antibes is simply incredibly beautiful! There are always great views of the Mediterranean. Unfortunately there is hardly any shade, so it can be very hot when the temperature is high!

Billionaires Bay owes its name to the presence of several villas hidden in the vegetation. In the past, it was only accessible by boat. Today, it is possible to get there on foot.

The town hall is built in an eclectic style with a classical tendency, in limestone and cut stone, on a rectangular and homogeneous tripartite plan with an intersecting symmetry axis used as a vestibule. The mezzanine and the bayed elevation of the two square floors of the north and south facades are arranged, on either side of a monumental bay, with Doric and Ionic columns placed one above the other. The third level is an attic floor whose trumeaux support high reliefs representing women leaning against them with palms, fruit, bouquets and garlands of flowers, as a symbol of local production. Above the inscription "French Republic" and above "Hôtel de ville" carved in the middle of the third level, the pediment, whose cover imitates a dome, carries a clock and still above it the coat of arms of the city projecting on an anchor and crowned with a crown in the form of a crenellated tower. The mechanical flat tiled roof is a long sloping roof over the building and a hipped roof over the pediment.
