It’s the beginning of the year and that means you are probably already thinking about the summer. I guarantee at least some people have fully booked their vacations two seasons in advance and are already counting down the days. We wish our lives away. Still, if you can’t beat them, I say join them. What better way than to learn about a stunning holiday destination you have probably never given much thought to. I’m talking about the beautiful region of Nice in the south of France.
The south of France is known for beautiful, relaxing vacations with rolling hills and vineyards. But Nice is most definitely the crown jewel of this region and you’re about to discover why.
Aqua Blue Horizons
Nice is located on the southern coast of France. If you book accommodation in Nice, there is the wonderful possibility that you will be treated to the view of an endless aqua ocean. You might even feel inclined to go out and explore it. Head down to the harbour, rent a boat and spend at least a couple days exploring the coast by sea. If you do this, you might even be able to drop anchor and explore somewhere completely cut off from the rest of the world. It’s a fantastic experience and one that you can share with the whole family.
Secluded, Private Beaches
Alternately, you may simply want to head down to the beach to work on your tan. While the beaches in Nice might be a little rough, they are also often completely private. Depending on where you stay, you might be able to access some of the most well maintained beaches in the world. This won’t be a situation where you desperately have to search for small area of sand to set up camp on. The whole beach will be open to you, and you can enjoy the serenity of silence. The only noise will be the lapping waves in the distance.
Stunning Accommodation
If you’re looking for some of the best accommodation in southern France, look no further than apartments in Nice. People often describe staying in Nice as finding a second home. It’s no wonder that many decide to buy a permanent residence there after numerous vacations. The picturesque views are difficult to replicate and the towns are places people love to explore. If you rent an apartment, you’ll be able to cook your own food that you can buy fresh from local stores.
A World Full Of Experiences
Although Nice might be a quiet, peaceful region, that doesn’t mean you won’t find adventure. In the evening the bars are open and there will be parties through the town. You’re sure to meet some new friends while the kids are safe in bed.
Or you might be interested in exploring the history of the land. Nice has some fascinating locations to venture into like the Musée de Paléontologie Humaine de Terra Amata. There you will uncover what the Riviera was like four hundred thousand years ago.
I hope I’ve convinced you to take your first trip to Nice this year and have the time of your life.
