THE GATEWAY TO THE RIVIERA

Nice might just have one of the most scenic airports in the world. When you land, you’ll feel like you’re landing in the sea – it’s right on the seafront! The area around Nice Côte d’Azur Airport, located to the west of the city centre, offers a convenient base with a connection to the charm of the French Riviera. The airport’s also just a short drive from central Nice, making it accessible yet slightly removed from the city’s hustle and bustle.

One of the highlights of this area is the Promenade des Anglais, a world-famous waterfront stretch where you can enjoy scenic strolls or rent a bike to soak in the Mediterranean views. The nearby Phoenix Park, a sprawling botanical and zoological garden, offers a peaceful retreat with exotic plants, a tropical greenhouse, and family-friendly activities.

For shopping and dining, the CAP3000 shopping centre in Saint-Laurent-du-Var is only a few minutes away and features a wide range of shops, restaurants, and even a beachfront promenade. If you’re after a taste of the local lifestyle, you can explore nearby beach clubs or traditional French brasseries.

The airport area is also a gateway to the wider Riviera, with easy access to destinations like Cannes, Monaco, and Antibes. Whether you’ve got a short layover or planning an extended stay, this area offers convenience, leisure, and close proximity to some of the region’s top attractions.

Hit the shops
For sea-view shopping, head to CAP3000 – the main shopping centre on the French Riviera. It’s just a five-minute drive from the airport. It’s got more than 300 shops and 50 restaurants, so you won’t be short of places for some retail therapy.
Stroll the Prom
On Promenade des Anglais, Nice’s famous waterfront stretch, you can enjoy scenic strolls or rent a bike to soak in the azure Mediterranean views. It starts at the airport and curves round to Quai des Etats-Unis near the Jardin Albert I, with a total length of about seven kilometres.
See some nature
The nearby Phoenix Park is a zoo, a tropical botanical garden, a playground, and a picnic place, all in one. It offers a peaceful retreat with exotic plants, a tropical greenhouse, and family-friendly activities. It’s just a four-minute drive from the airport.
