Pebbles on the beach
Beach Babes French Riviera
Beach Babes French Riviera the very cosmopolitan city of Nice was originally founded by the Greeks & later became a retreat for 19th-century Europe’s elite. The lackluster port area is rapidly filling up with the city’s coolest restaurants and bars.
July 2010 marked 150 years since the Mediterranean city was ceded to France as a reward for French help in the second Italian war of independence against Austria. The locally born Italian hero Giuseppe Garibaldi was irate about the handover, knowing well – as generations of film stars, millionaires, princes, Mafiosi and tourists would later come to realize – that France had quite a trophy on its hands.
Iconic sea-blue chairs
While away the hours on one of its iconic sea-blue chairs rather than lay on the uncomfortable pebbles.
36 Hours in Nice
A very nice You Tube video courtesy of The New York Times.
Private beach area
The private beaches offer very comfortable sun chairs, umbrellas, and full service to their very EXPENSIVE bars. It’s a nice get away from the hordes of people on the public beaches, and the chairs are much more comfortable than the rocks.

Many of these private areas actually have sand instead of pebbles.
This can’t be comfortable
However I would be very happy lying beside her, I would gladly put up with the pain from the pebbles. 🙂
The very congested boat harbour
I bet there is a long waiting list for a berth.
Toys and Condominiums
As in many other cities on the French Riviera you can really smell the money here. 🙂
Church Maria Sine Labe Concepta
This rather impressive church overlook the harbour in Nice.

Sometimes written off as staid and sleepy, France’s fifth city is is thriving, tourism is a huge business in Nice, but the city also has one of Europe’s biggest technology parks, hosting 1,200 international companies.
Strolling along the promenade.
Nice’s Promenade des Anglais is part of the heart of this seaside French city. Nice’s Promenade des Anglais is lined with cafes situated directly on the beach, and it’s a bustling area active with cyclists, runners, walkers and roller bladers.
Hmm, which way to go?
Well I’m heading for Menton.

Look closely you may see some rocks instead of sand. Rocks, what rocks? I don’t see any rocks. 🙂
Strolling along the esplanade in Nice.
Nice has a very good feel to it, I really should have stayed longer.
Fabulous boats in the harbour
In fact there are thousands of luxury cruisers all along the Riviera.
Where there are boats…
You are going to find the babes. 🙂
