📍Saint Laurent du Var, France 🇫🇷

What an exotic find just a few kilometers from Nice!

In our quest for sand and to spare our feet from the pain caused by the pebbles on Nice’s beaches, we discovered a spot about ten kilometers from the city center, Saint Laurent du Var. We took the train there (tickets cost €2.3), and it takes about ten minutes, but then you have at least a 15-minute walk to the beach, so Uber was the better option for the return (Saint Laurent du Var to Nice costs around €25).

This small village is peaceful and not crowded. The most appealing local spot to us was @restaurantbeachclub(ig). Everything has a jungle vibe, completely different from the beach clubs we had seen before. As for renting sunbeds, the prices are lower than in Cannes or Nice (€25 and €30, depending on the row).

There were also many children on the beach, and they even have a water playground, making it a great choice for a family vacation. Another fun fact: you can watch planes land from this beach.
