    Take a day trip to Nice in France from Monte Carlo if you are staying in Monte Carlo for several days for your vacations. It is only an hour by bus or half an hour by train from Monte Carlo. Among the tourist attractions in Nice include the four kilometre long Promenade, Cours Saleya Flowers Market, museums and palaces. Many shopping arcades along the Promenade are available for those who love shopping. For those who are hungry and thirsty there are never short of excellent bars, pubs and restaurants.

    After you've explored Monaco, the countryside surrounding Monte Carlo on the Cote d'Azur is gorgeous. If you can tear yourself away from the glitz and glamour of Monte Carlo, take time to see the Cote d'Azur!

    Cap Nord is a small Sweedish Cafe and Delicatessen on rue Grimaldi, owned by Marc and Sofia, two very nice people. They serve sanwhiches and Scandinavian specialties that are a delight to taste. I stopped by there often during my three week stay to get a sandwhich for lunch or dinner, or to visit with Marc. I highly recommed that you go by there just to say hello, and sample their delightful food.

  • Menton is just a mile from the Italian border and therefore it's the most Italian of the French resorts. It has several fine tropical gardens, and citrus fruits thrive in a climate mild enough for the lemon festival in February.

    The MONTE-CARLO BEACH HOTEL is something differentfrom every other beach. The most exclusive beach in Monte-Carlo is also, as you might expect, the most expensive. However, here, you can enjoy very numerous activites, a great beach, pool, gourmet restaurants that will serve you on the beach 'si tel est le désir de Madame' and unequaled service. This is also a hotel, so you might think about living up to luxury's requirements, away from the common crowd, and only minutes away (by Rolls) from the main casino and very close to the Sporting Club de Monte-Carlo (home of the famous Salle des Etoiles and Jimmy's Nightclub for the extremely wealthy)

    Visit the web page of the Société des Bains de Mer, who cater for the rich, www.sbm.mc

    The bottle (0.25l) of the "HEINEKEN" coasted, in a bar on the beach, 30 French Francs (6.55957 FrF was 1 Euro).
