The coast is simple if you pick one hotel and let trains do the rest.
Stay in Nice
Beachfront hotels here usually offer better value than Cannes or Monaco, with the best rail links on the strip.
TER over taxis
Regional trains link Nice, Cannes, Antibes, and Monaco. Buy a local pass or day tickets; stations sit near the water.
Car for one day only
Useful for the Esterel’s quieter coves or villages beyond Grasse. Unnecessary — and parking-painful — in central Nice.
