Les Sablettes Beach
A favourite among families!
in Menton
An exceptional view over the old town, mountains and the Italian coast! Near to Vieux-Port, Les Sablettes beach offers families a gentle slope into the water. This is the largest beach in Menton and its fine gravel, mixed with sand, makes it ideal for little feet to enjoy the shallow waters. Palm trees, pergolas and water fountains create cool spots for the hottest times of the day. A number of cafés, restaurants and shops nearby mean you can enjoy a refreshing swim and take the pressure off the day’s activities. Toilet and shower facilities and lockers are on hand for bathing during the summer months. The lift provides access for everyone from the quay or the Esplanade des Sablettes car park.

Le Buse Beach
A hidden gem…
in Roquebrune-Cap-Martin
Located in the Bay of Cabbé, in Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, this small pebble beach is a magical unspoilt location. Far from the road and cars, its crystal-clear waters are delightful. One of the most spectacular features of the beach is its sub-aqua freshwater springs, offering incredibly cool pockets in summer. The spot is well worth a visit and can only be reached on foot from the steps at the station. Walkers can also get there by following the Le Corbusier route, then the Le Buse path. There are also showers available. However, please take care with your little ones as swimming is not supervised in summer.

Can’t find anywhere to park near the beach? It can be a real challenge! Zestbus transport makes things simple! The service covers the entire coastline from Cap Martin to the Promenade Reine Astrid. Another option is to take the train directly to Cabbé and Le Buse beaches in Roquebrune-Cap-Martin (the Cap-Martin stop in Roquebrune) or to Rondelli Beach (Menton Garavan stop). Above all, we prefer soft mobility travel options, which are great for your health and the environment! Whether on foot or on a Bik’air, you’re free to get around whenever you want.
