A well-known seaside resort, Beaulieu sur Mer truly deserves
its name and is really jewel of the French Riviera,
Situated in the shelter of the mountains and the spectacular
cliffs of the Cap Roux (“Petite Afrique” beach) Beaulieu
benefits from an exceptional and mild climate and luxuriant
vegetation with as its horizon the deep blue of the
Mediterranean and the protected beauty of Saint Jean Cap
Ferrat.
Nestled in the
heart of the 3 Corniches of French Riviera between Nice (8km) and the
Principality of Monaco (8km)
The resort of Beaulieu sur Mer is situated near to both Menton
and Italie, with the idyllic peninsular of Saint Jean Cap
Ferrat at its door, Villefranche sur Mer and its renowned
natural harbour, the medieval village of Eze “the Eagle Nest”
and its breathtaking views of the “Massif de l’Esterel” in one
direction and Italy in the other, their architectural
treasures and baroque paintings as well as the wild beauty of
the Alps.
At the same time offering its gentle way of life and calm,
Beaulieu sur mer proposes a fantastic diversity of riches to
its visitors, both in the resort and in its immediate
surroundings, of which we mention just few ideas: (For further
