What you will see
Vieux-Port
Fishing boats beside superyachts: the two faces of Cannes in one glance.
Marché Forville
The covered market where locals and chefs shop. Socca, olives, flowers and the morning catch.
Rue Saint-Antoine
The cobbled lane that climbs through Le Suquet, the original village.
Notre-Dame d’Espérance and the Suquet tower
The hilltop church, the medieval watchtower and the best view over the bay and the Lérins islands.
Rue Meynadier
Once the main street of the old town, now the place for cheese, wine and local specialities.
Palais des Festivals
The 24 steps of the red carpet and the handprints of the stars on the Chemin des Étoiles.
La Croisette
Palms, private beaches and palace hotels, and the story of how an English lord turned a village into a resort.
