From its Mediterranean beaches and elegant palm-lined avenues to its sizzling nightlife and glittering annual film fest, Cannes is a quintessential Cote D’Azur destination – redolent of wealth, style and sophistication. Favourite activities include lounging on the golden sand beaches along the glamorous Boulevard de la Croissette, exploring the ancient alleyways of Le Suquet, the old quarter, with their luxury boutiques and gourmet stores stocking a dazzling array of delicacies, or visiting the high-tech, über-modern Palais des Festivals, which plays host to the highlight of the Cannes social calendar – the city’s world-famous film festival.
