The
City of Antibes has the touch and the colours
of the Provence area.
No city can offer as much variety and contrasted
charm as Antibes. It is the city of the sailors,
gardeners, lovers of Mozart, Ray Charles, Picasso
and Peynet, lovers of arts and music of all styles,
lovers of old stones and of children amazed by
the dolphins at the Marineland.
One
will fall in love with the city of Antibes for
its azure blue sky and its animated nights in
Juan-les-Pins, the scent and perfume of its
Provencal market and for strolling through its
flowered old streets, its museums: Picasso,
Peynet, postal cards, archaeology, Napoleonian
and the Fort Carré
