Make a beeline for the Cote d'Azur this summer and discover some of the best restaurants in Antibes
One of the visual treats of the French Riviera, the historic walled town of Antibes rises above its own ancient ramparts, with views towards its lovely beaches and the masts in Port Vauban marina, the largest in Europe and a stopping point for superyachts.
Once the home of Pablo Picasso, the picturesque Old Town houses the museum dedicated to his work, which also has a sculpture terrace and fabulous sea views. When you need a break from sunbathing and culture, there are dozens of places to eat.
Here the MCC team has put together a list of suggested restaurants.
