Inseparable from the Cannes identity, the Boulevard de la Croisette forms a long promenade lined with palm trees and pine trees. Reminiscent of the Promenade des Anglais in Nice. This sophisticated venue elegantly connects the beach and the city. While on one side there are fine sandy beaches, on the other there are numerous luxury brands, but also large hotels and palaces.

You can't visit Cannes without strolling along the Croisette. This legendary walk runs along the bay of Cannes for three kilometers. Under the hot sun of the south of France, it forms a landscape worthy of a postcard.
