Rocky coastal path round the Cap

For the more advenurous, walk the coast footpath which runs around the entire length of the Cap from St Jean. Allow two to three hours, and wear stout shoes as some sections are rock-strewn and involve a little clambering up and down. The windswept tip of the Cap offers splendid views towards Beaulieu and Eze sur mer. On your way you will get the tiniest glimpse of some of the wonderful villas that dot the Cap, high above you.
