Le Cannet

Description: Le Cannet is a charming commune perched on the heights of Cannes, offering uninterrupted views over the Bay of Cannes and the Mediterranean. The cobbled streets and houses with colourful facades give this town a picturesque charm. Visitors are particularly fond of the art galleries and artists' studios for which the region is famous. Hiking trails in the surrounding hills attract nature lovers, while the remains of the ancient mediaeval castle appeal to history enthusiasts. Le Cannet thus offers a balanced experience between the splendour of the Côte d'Azur and the calm of Provence.

Saint Didier Festival - July or August
Christmas festivities - December
