May 16, 2023,Around Cap Ferrat - don’t do this if you are politically left wing or it will infuriate you

This walk was mainly past villas with high walls and surveillance cameras with views out to the yachts of the super-rich showing off in the bay. 🤮

January 2, 2024,Saint-Jean Cap Ferrat: giro del Capo

Part of the circular route of the cape was cut due to works on the stretch of coast just after the start which forced a detour.

Unfortunately sometimes not found the way straight away because they are private and ultimately locked

Yesterday the sea only from afar, today very close.
The pictures speak for themselves...

A tour with easy paths, hardly any inclines, lots of asphalt and not a lot of rocks. But with great views of the sea, palm trees, rocks and villas. You can always sit on the rocks or on the beaches and just enjoy. A nice, relaxed tour.
