Walk or take the tram further into Nice, away from the coast to get a taste of what the locals enjoy. Really friendly staff who attend to regulars and tourists with equal care serve fantastic, tasty plates of French and Italian-inspired food that never disappoint. Arrive before lunch to enjoy the morning food market which sets up in the surrounding streets.

Don't be put off by the name! This is authentic French fare. Less "tourist-y" than most of the restaurants on the Cours Saleya, but still conveniently placed.

HUGE portions of Italian favourites. Budget-friendly if you share dishes (and most will feed 2-3 people) or just eat the dishes all by yourself!

Sightseeing

Iconic beach-side walk enjoyed by millions since the 1820s. "La Prom" stretches the complete 4km sweep of the Baie des Anges with a cycle and skating lane. Soak up the beautiful colours of the Mediterranean and all the old school grandeur of the baroque beachfront architecture. Walk, cycle, skate or hire a Segway!

Parks & Nature

Surprisingly spacious park on top of the rock. Walk up (or take the lift) for stunning views and a refreshing waterfall - perfect on a hot day. Explore further to the North of the outcrop to discover the fascinating cemetery with its elaborate and beautiful tombs and headstones, housing famous Niçois such as Gaston Leroux, author of "The Phantom of the Opera". So secret, many locals have never even seen it! Climb to the highest point of the cemetery and enjoy superb views of the mountains to the back of Nice and possibly even snow-capped peaks while you stand in the heat of the coast. A true experience of "Alpes-Maritimes".

Shopping

Visit this beautiful shop for everything olive - from olive oil to eat, toiletries and kitchen items made from the wood. Ask to taste the oils. Dunk bread into "Ail & Thym" for instant garlic bread, drizzle "Basilic" onto tomotoes and mozarella for that Southern Med taste or simply Fruité Noir for the most intense olive taste. You'll never go back. TOP TIP: For those flying with hand luggage only, some of the A l'Olivier range can be purchased at Nice airport once you have gone through security.
