Beaulieu-Sur-Mer

""Beautiful Place on the Sea""

Beaulieu-Sur-Mer was the thing Napoleon was right about; when he visited, he supposedly sighed and gave the town it's current name which translates into "Beautiful Place on the Sea."
Today, it is still a breathtaking place to visit, and an easy daytrip from Nice or other towns on the Cote d'Azur. It has some of the most beautiful seaside stretches along the coast, along with a handful of unique villas well worth a peek. I also found the shopowners to be immensely friendly and helpful and patient with my broken French!

Situated 10 km from Nice and its international airport, Beaulieu is near the sea and covers an area of 95 ha. Nestled amongst abundant vegetation, Beaulieu means 'beautiful place' in French, and it is aptly named. With its beaches bordered by palm trees, the superb light and warm temperatures for most of the year, Beaulieu is one of the most delightful spots on the Côte d'Azur. Frequented in the past by royalty and members of the aristocracy, Beaulieu today continues to be a high-class village in true Mediterranean style. The luxurious properties, beautiful parks and gardens, as well as the extravagant limousines that you will come across in Beaulieu all remind you that this is the heart of the Côte d'Azur.
