Menton - Vieux Port

Drop anchor off this sun-drenched corner of the French Riviera, where colorful traditional pointus fishing boats share the water with leisure craft against a backdrop of pastel-hued old town buildings. The renovated waterfront is lined with restaurants and wooden deck seating, making it a great excuse to head ashore and soak up Menton's famously mild microclimate — the sunniest spot on the Côte d'Azur. The medieval old town, lemon festival fame, and the Italian border just minutes away give this place a character all its own.
