Die kilometerlange Promenade erstreckt sich entlang des türkisblauen Mittelmeers und bietet herrliche Ausblicke auf das Wasser und die Kiesstrände. Ob man gemütlich entlang spaziert, eine Runde joggt oder einfach auf einer der zahlreichen blauen Bänke entspannt - die Atmosphäre ist immer beeindruckend. Ein besonderes Highlight ist die Architektur der umliegenden Gebäude, wie das berühmte Hotel Negresco, das den Charme vergangener Zeiten versprüht. Auch die vielen Cafés und Restaurants entlang der Promenade laden dazu ein, die französische Küche bei einem Glas Wein oder einem Cappuccino zu genießen, während man das bunte Treiben beobachtet. Besonders schön ist die Promenade am Abend, wenn die Straßenlaternen leuchten und das Rauschen des Meeres eine romantische Stimmung zaubert. Für Kunstliebhaber gibt es immer wieder kleine Ausstellungen oder Straßenkünstler, die die kulturelle Vielfalt Nizzas zeigen. Die Promenade des Anglais ist mehr als nur ein Spazierweg - sie ist ein Erlebnis, das den Zauber der Côte d'Azur perfekt einfängt. Absolut empfehlenswert! read more

This street is majestic. I walked both sides in the street's entirety--from Castle Hill down to Parc Phoenix (on the Mediterranean side) and from Parc Phoenix back to Castle Hill (on the hotel/casino/city side). In truth, both are worth exploring, but it can be a bit much (about 4 miles each way). If you aren't up for that, I recommend staying seaside, but make sure to cross and check out Hotel Negresco and Villa Masséna Musée on the city side. I got an early start (I was out there around 07h30 on a Saturday, and it was great. The sunrise was beautiful through the clouds, and the seaside breeze was the perfect accoutrement to mid-seventies weather. For anyone going to Nice, taking a stroll down the Promenade is an absolute must. At the very least, I would walk from Castle Hill down past the beaches (closer to 2 miles instead of 4). Such a great experience! Enthusiastically, Clayton Cohn read more

Promenade des Anglais - Local Flavor Near Me - Nice, 06

One of the most beautiful beach walks I've ever had the pleasure of walking. It was pretty busy tonight, but it's a Saturday and in June. It's tourist season! It goes on for quite sometime, but the views are breathtaking and you'll have the sea on one side of you, while amazing hotels and restaurants to the other. Plus people watching and noticing all the different languages. There are also top quality street performers as well. In the end, it was an amazing walk, and I advise anyone in Nice to give it a shot. read more

The promenade is along the coast of the beach, so you get a beautiful view as you're walking. There's tons of active people around, so be careful for that. Also, lots of swanky boutique hotels and restaurants on the strip for you to stop in and enjoy. It reminds me of a posh area of Miami, but much much more classier. It's also not a far walk from Old Town either, so make sure to walk the promenade and stop in for some macarons and gelato right on the promenade. read more

Promenade des Anglais - My daughter and husband walking on the promenade des anglais - Local Flavor Near Me - Nice, 06

I don't have anything bad to say about Nice, France. I knew going to France that I would get looked at weird for not knowing the language. It was a great experience to be able to see the gorgeous pebble stone beach and walk the promenade and be able to eat in front of the sea and just have a great time. Some people were nice and others not so much but again I knew that going in. It was gorgeous and I was absolutely amazed! I dont know if I would go back but if I do I would definitely stay on the water front and interact more with locals! read more

It's a beautiful beach area that is worth a stop on your travels. I really enjoyed this area and do want to go back to this city and beach. I would say this is a more of upscale place that still feels down to earth and not too touristy either. read more

How Nice is Nice? You tell me, It's never been my cup of tea especially over the past twenty years. It is overgrown, impossible to park, expensive and really is no longer a reflection of the Cote d''Azur. I bet that within the next ten years it will become an entire cimented city just like Monaco which l don't care for either. We stayed up on Mont Boron in Nice, an upscale community with extra large terraces on both sides of our apartment and a view of the city and the Mediterranean sea. It is a bit of a tortuous way up on the hill with very narrow roads but for us it was worth driving the extra mile away from the loud downtown yet we were only 10mns away by foot. read more

Go to Nice if you're in France-the French Riviera is not to be missed! Lucky for us our hotel was located right across the street from the Promenade des Anglais. Famously situated along the most famous street in Nice where As we drove from the airport to the hotel the promenade is along the main road which hugs the beautiful picturesque coastline of the French Riviera. You'll see lots of people walking, jogging, strolling, and just enjoying the gorgeous views. Don't be surprised to find a rocky beach-no sand found here! read more

A gorgeous promenade in Nice that hugs the coastline with a beach that follows the promenade for quite a while. Many private beaches dotted along the way with thousands of chairs for hire. It's similar to the Marine Drive in Mumbai or many other places like Venice Beach or Miami. This one just happens to be in France. You can hear the planes coming in for landing every two three minutes (see photo) and whilst the first couple are cool, I imagine it would get to me after the 100th plane has zipped past for landing. There are some lovely building along the promenade and the view is great but for me it's just a beach tourist area for all intents and purposes. I know people love it and I am probably amongst the few that don't think this is exciting :-)) It's lovely and I am sure you will like it :-) Given the choice I would probably spend more time in the old city of Nice, which I love :-))) read more

This is the famous Promenade des Anglais, that's talked about in all tour books, etc. It's the must see ocean boulevard, so to speak.. You'll get great views of the ocean aka Cote d'Azur from here, so enjoy. We were fortunate to come during sunset so everything was so lovely! :) All pedestrians and runners share this boardwalk, so it can get crowded. Be careful... read more

One of the best beach walks anyone is possibly able to ever imagine. I couldn't stop walking the entire magical path. Much more than 30 blocks. Extremely active. All of the enthusiasm. Between the high climax of urbanity at the combination of nature. Highly eclectic architecture occurring. Even more than Paris! Wide variety of buildings. Tons of stores happening. Comfortably spacious. Crowds are actually inviting for once. Quite unique when people think of the entire picture for Nice French Mediterranean. Dreamy entrance to the sea. Universal rational reasons why tourism is always reaching endless popular glamour to foreigners. Walk further east of Promenade Des Anglais, the full surroundings end up much more rustic entering Quai Des Etats-Unis. Sea Cliffs, Buildings on Top of them feel, a complex meandering maze into Quai Rauba Capeu-Le Port Marina. Another vibrancy arena zone Kaleidoscope. read more

Really long beach walkway in Nice! It's very relaxing to walk either right next to the water on the rocks or to walk on the paved walkway. The water is really nice, though I think it's too cold to swim in. The promenade stretches really long, and there are places to sit and relax as well. Super nice area to be in, and it can't be missed if you're in Nice! read more

When you walk down this street, you understand why the celebrities of the world end up coming to the French Riviera. It is sunny, and posh, and almost perfect. read more

This road runs parallel from nearly as far as the airport to the foot of the castle that overlooks Nice. On one side you can take a leisurely stroll and look out to sea or sit down on one the many seats. On the other side you'll find various hotels, shops etc. The only minor annoyance is those people who try to sell you hats and sunglasses and so on. Luckily they're not too pushy and there are only a few of them. read more

Promenade des Anglais - Local Flavor Near Me - Nice, 06

I have to be honest with you dear Qypers, I swear on the Qype's Bible to tell you the truth, only the most sincere, reliant and trustable truth. I still really do not understand why this avenue is such famous and attractive for tourists. I have been living on the French Riviera for two years and am disgusted by this place. The Promenade des Anglais is a soulless avenue facing the see but bordered by a six to eight lanes city highway. If I were enjoying spending an hour in a noisy and polluted place, surrounded by cars, concrete and two bunches of flowers, I would probably go there. It all depends on each one's expectations but the French Riviera's magic, spirit and beauty is for sure not there. Pass your way, don't lose your precious time in this part of Nice read more

It just does not get any better than this! I place walking along this Promenade up there with walking along the quadruple row of American elms in New York City's Literary Walk or The Avenue des Champs-Élysées in Paris. It helped that we had a beautiful unseasonably warm late fall day which brought the locals to the beach in droves so the atmosphere was festive and happy. The views of the Mediterranean Sea are spectacular, there are plenty of places to sit and people watch wonderful restaurants with outdoor seating are all around. read more

Gorgeous! Mesmerizing! Enthralling! Quintessential if you are going to Nice. Promenade des Anglais is what Ipanema Beach is to Rio, Machu Picchu to Peru, Central Park to NYC, Al Badayer to UAE, and so forth. Although it's quite the "touristy" thing to do, it shouldn't be excluded from ones plans. Get a drink, take a walk, find a bench, bask in the sun, and stare out onto the horizon of the glistening Mediterranean Sea. read more

Honestly, words don't do this place justice. Whether you are walking down the promenade morning, noon or night... it is breathtaking.

Great little town, lots of shops and restaurants. We walked a lot from here as there is a lot to do. We LOVE the beach and were worried we would be disappointed since its rocks not sand but we were presently surprised as it wasn't that bad (I even fell asleep). Highly recommend you climb the stairs or take the elevator up the hill to see the gorgeous view across Nice and walk around during sunset as the view is breathtaking. read more

A tricky review to give. Great to walk down to check out the beaches and look at the sea, but in August this street is overrun with tourists (myself included). I knew what I was in for, but at night it felt a bit like walking around in Vegas. Avoid nearly all of the restaurants along this strip, we didn't and should have know better. It's interesting to see glitz and glamour mixed in with sort of dumpy looking tourists. read more

One of the greatest sight of the French Riviera. Rent a top floor flat somewhere and enjoy

A Must See when at Côte d'Azur ! Classic

For a tourist in Nice, the promenade is a must, besides, it is one of the most attractive parts of the 7km long coastal line. It is true that if you walk on the avenue you cannot escape the noisy environment of the rushing by cars since the main road leading to Monaco and other destinations runs by the promenade. You can easily move down to the beach, which is not sandy but covered in small cobble stones. Make sure you are equipped with the right shoes otherwise your pleasureful walk will turn into a foot torture.The noise from cars is lost down there and you can enjoy the sun and the splendid peace and calm of the sea. The promenade is busy with cyclists, you can hire a bike if you find yourself fit enough, or opt for rollers - I watched with admiration a brave mom pushing a pram on rollers racing by runners, old men and school children. read more

The pebbles on the beach make your towel dusty and aren't super comfortable but that's the only bad part about this part of town! You can walk, ride, rollerblade etc along the Promenade, which is beautiful. This is also where the little tour train leaves for a tour of Nice. It's called Le Petit Train and is definitely worth a go. read more

Walking along the Promenade des Anglais was one of my favorite parts of visiting Nice. You can watch all of the people walking, biking, rollerblading, and the views of the water are spectacular. When I got in from the airport I had a few hours to kill so I walked along it all the way to my hotel and greatly enjoyed it. read more
