HOW TO GET THERE
Whether you are leaving from Nice or Monaco, the easiest way is to take the low or middle cornice to the village of Villefranche-sur-mer. Once there, you will have to descend to the small marina where you will find a large number of restaurants and walk along the harbor to the beach which can be easily seen in the distance.
To park, there are two paid car parks in high season, one at the entrance to the old town, and another which runs along the entire beach of marinières. You can also easily access this beach by train since the station is located just above the beach, with very quick access by stairs.

NEARBY BEACHES
A few meters from the marinières beach after the parking lot, you will find the beach of the Guardian Angel, a little quieter in high season.
On the other side of Villefranche, near the port is La Darse beach, which is very little frequented by tourists.
Finally, on the border between Villefranche-sur-mer and Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat is Grasseuil beach, a haven of peace for regulars of atypical landscapes.
