Topless Sunbathing: The beach

  • Unfortunately (?) we didn't see any topless sunbathing because there was light rain and very few people on the beach. But the beach was very nice anyway - maybe because there were not so many people...
    Elder fellow passengers on our cruise ship had visited the beach the day before when it was sunny. They were discussing it at the dinner saying "Young naked people can be beautiful...but old people when they exposed themselves on the beach... that looked not so nice."

    Topless Sunbathing: Sunbathing
  • Tip Rating:
  • In the South of France, you will see a lot of beaches. Depending on where you come from, you might be shocked to see women sunbathing and showing their naked breasts. It is very common...

    Sorry, no picture to illustrate this ;-)

    Topless Sunbathing: French love topless bathing. ...
  • Tip Rating:
  • French love topless bathing. If you are brave join the locals and get rid of the tan lines. Because of this there are no sunbaking pictures of me in Nice!!

    Topless Sunbathing: Even though I heard about it...
  • Tip Rating:
  • Even though I heard about it beforehand, this modest American was a little shocked to find many of the women go topless at the beach! This is something that is so funny to me, because the unwritten clothing rules in France make no sense. Typically, women in France don't wear shorts. They wear skirts or pants. I made the mistake of wearing knee-length shorts when I took a walk around town and some people looked at me like I had questionable morals. So I guess showing your legs in a pair of modest shorts is shocking, but stripping down to your underwear in front of strangers at the beach is okay! Another one of those French things you just have to get used to! Ladies, make sure you bring some lightweight pants for walking around on hot days.
    Cultural Tips: Again, the dogs! Keep in mind that the French don't mind letting them into restaurants. In the US, bringing a dog or cat (or any pet) into a restaurant is considered a health violation. So seeing a scraggly dog while you eat your sandwich might seem a little gross at first. Just another thing to get used to.
    Cultural Tips: If you plan on doing any e-mailing, ask the Internet café employees if they have English keyboards before you sit down. To an American, the keyboard in France looks all mixed up. The 'm,' 'q,' and several other letters are in different places. This means it will take a lot longer to type out an e-mail--costing you precious francs by the minute!

    Topless Sunbathing: It's not polite to stare..

    Topless sunbathing is permitted on the beaches of the Cote d'Azur. You'll see a mix of women with their tops on or off as you enjoy the beaches. The lesson to be learned is not to stare like a schoolboy. Enjoy the sun and let others enjoy it too.
