Beaulieu-sur-Mer has 2 splendid beaches: small Africa and the Bay of the Ants. Many activities are proposed there: veil, water skiing, premenades at sea with fishing with tuna, canoe-kayak, plays for children…

  • Small Africa

It is named as small africa because of his climate and his flora: many palm trees are there. Indeed, we can speak about a “microclimate”, to characterize the territory of Beaulieu-sur-Mer. There are throughout the year from 1 to 3 degrees moreover, compared to the remainder of the coast, due to the retention of heat by cliffs.

  • The Bay of the Ants

The Bay of the Ants or Peira Forniga in niçois, was in the past, the seat of an accumulation extremely curious about algae firmly piled up, even sintered at the base, which made them invulnerable to the attack waves. By rather regular places, monticules were done day and gave the impression of large anthills. Today obviously the algae disappeared.
