class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The French Riviera and the C\u00f4te d&#039;Azur are broadly used as names for the same area, along the Mediterranean coast of southeastern France. However, exactly where the French Riviera begins in the west is not entirely clear. Different sources and tourist organizations use slightly different boundaries, while the eastern end is more easily placed at the Italian border.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1719-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-267763\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1719-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1719-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1719-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1719-224x126.jpg 224w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1719-18x10.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1719-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1719-590x332.jpg 590w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1719-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1719.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Peter and Helena from FREEDOMtravel.se, on location on the French Riviera.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is therefore wise not to draw too precise a line on the map. In a broader tourist context, Hy\u00e8res and the Golden Islands off the coast are also counted as part of the C\u00f4te d&#039;Azur, while other definitions have the Riviera starting further east.<\/p><div class=\"freed-grupp-i-blogginlagg freed-entity-placement\" id=\"freed-2629957190\"><div class=\"freed-adlabel\">Advertisement<\/div><div id=\"freed-slider-88752\" class=\"custom-slider freed-slider-421725250 freed-slider\"><ul><li><div id=\"freed-2066539364\" class=\"method-missing not-front type-post not-theme-page\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/se.adria-mobil.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"adria-freedom-top-banner-588x158px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/adria-freedom-toppbanner-588x158px.gif\" alt=\"\"  width=\"588\" height=\"158\"   \/><\/a><\/div><\/li><li><div id=\"freed-2051396211\" class=\"method-missing not-front type-post not-theme-page\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ullbadden.se\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"ullbadden_588x158_feb_2026\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/ullbadden_588x158_feb_2026-1.jpg\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/ullbadden_588x158_feb_2026-1.jpg 588w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/ullbadden_588x158_feb_2026-1-300x81.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/ullbadden_588x158_feb_2026-1-224x60.jpg 224w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/ullbadden_588x158_feb_2026-1-18x5.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/ullbadden_588x158_feb_2026-1-433x116.jpg 433w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 588px) 100vw, 588px\" width=\"588\" height=\"158\"   \/><\/a><\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><script>( window.advanced_ads_ready || jQuery( document ).ready ).call( null, function() {var $freedslider421725250 = jQuery( \".freed-slider-421725250\" );$freedslider421725250.on( \"unslider.ready\", function() { jQuery( \"div.custom-slider ul li\" ).css( \"display\", \"block\" ); });$freedslider421725250.unslider({ delay:4000, autoplay:true, nav:false, arrows:false, infinite:true });$freedslider421725250.on(\"mouseover\", function() {$freedslider421725250.unslider(\"stop\");}).on(\"mouseout\", function() {$freedslider421725250.unslider(\"start\");});});<\/script><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For us, the French Riviera is all about contrasts. There are exclusive resorts, luxury yachts and restaurants with prices to match, but also small coves, hiking trails, islands and dramatic nature.

Here, old quarters and Proven\u00e7al traditions coexist with enormous luxury yachts, exclusive shops and an international jet set life. But from the beginning, this was a city characterized by shipping, fishing and trade. During the 19th century, artists also began to seek out this place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The modern myth of Saint-Tropez gained extra momentum through the film <em>And God... created woman<\/em> from 1956 with Brigitte Bardot. The film was shot in Saint-Tropez and contributed greatly to making both Bardot and the city internationally famous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1023\" height=\"681\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Helena-St-Tropez.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-27691\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Helena-St-Tropez.jpg 1023w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Helena-St-Tropez-600x399.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Helena-St-Tropez-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Helena-St-Tropez-900x599.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1023px) 100vw, 1023px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Overlooking the port of St Tropez<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So when we arrived here, we had pretty high expectations. We walked along the harbor, looked at the huge boats, saw artists painting and selling their work, and peeked into exclusive shops. Peter found a pair of white shorts and a white jacket that would have fit perfectly in Saint-Tropez, but the prices made them stay in the shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And what did we think? Nice, absolutely. But we kept waiting for that extra wow feeling that never really arrived. Saint-Tropez simply wasn&#039;t our favorite on the French Riviera. Maybe our expectations were too high, or maybe we just prefer other places along the coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>READ MORE: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/en\/2015\/05\/st-tropez\/\">Saint-Tropez in France \u2013 the city of luxury and glamour?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/St-Tropez-1-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"St Tropez\" class=\"wp-image-45978\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/St-Tropez-1-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/St-Tropez-1-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/St-Tropez-1-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/St-Tropez-1-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/St-Tropez-1-1200x673.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/St-Tropez-1.jpg 1203w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sainte-Maxime \u2013 our first encounter with Riviera life<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the other side of the Bay of Saint-Tropez lies Sainte-Maxime, where we spent a few days in our camper van during one of our early trips along the French Riviera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We swam, walked along the coast and began to get a feel for the contrasts of the C\u00f4te d&#039;Azur.

After Agay and Anth\u00e9or, the surroundings became increasingly dramatic. Red mountains plunged down to the blue sea and small bathing coves hid between the rocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the places we passed was <strong>Viaduct of Antheor<\/strong>, the large railway viaduct that stretches across the landscape near the sea.

The road runs close to the cliffs at times and parking is limited, especially with a larger vehicle. When we later wanted to stop for a swim, we finally found a parking space where the camper went in. By the centimeter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But it worked.

We have been here several times and once happened to arrive in the middle of the film festival itself. The whole city was then characterized by the event, with posters, photographers, barriers, limousines and people looking for celebrities.

We strolled around, shopped, ate moules frites and enjoyed an unusually calm day. Helena found both a bikini and a dress while Peter, who needed shorts, somehow managed to walk into a store that sold almost only shorts and still come out without a single pair. However, we ended up with two pairs of long pants, a shirt and a t-shirt. That&#039;s how it can be when shopping in Cannes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over the years, Cannes has become one of the cities on the French Riviera that we love to return to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>READ MORE: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/en\/2018\/08\/shopping-i-cannes-frankrikes-riviera\/\">Things to do in Cannes \u2013 film festival, old town and French Riviera<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cannes-2-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Cannes\" class=\"wp-image-72387\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cannes-2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cannes-2-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cannes-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cannes-2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cannes-2-1200x674.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cannes-2.jpg 1201w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Excursion from Cannes to \u00cele Sainte-Marguerite<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From Cannes you can also take the boat out to <strong>Sainte-Marguerite Island<\/strong>, the largest of the L\u00e9rins Islands just off the coast. We did so during one of our visits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The island offers a completely different environment than Cannes, with pine and eucalyptus forests, hiking trails, small swimming coves and Fort Royal. The fort is famous, among other things, for the enigmatic prisoner known as the \u201dMan in the Iron Mask\u201d who was imprisoned here during the 17th century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cannes-Ste-Marguerite-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"Sainte-Marguerite utanf\u00f6r Cannes\" class=\"wp-image-72410\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cannes-Ste-Marguerite-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cannes-Ste-Marguerite-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cannes-Ste-Marguerite-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cannes-Ste-Marguerite-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cannes-Ste-Marguerite.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was scorching hot when we visited the island.

We arrived by cruise ship <em>Freedom of the Seas<\/em>, which was anchored outside <strong>Villefranche-sur-Mer<\/strong>.

Even though we&#039;ve traveled here several times over more than ten years, there are still new places to discover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1781-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-267862\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1781-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1781-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1781-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1781-224x126.jpg 224w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1781-18x10.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1781-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1781-590x332.jpg 590w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1781-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1781.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">On a beach just outside Antibes.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Strander_pa_Franska_rivieran\"><\/span>Beaches on the French Riviera<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The beaches are of course a big part of the allure of the French Riviera, but the coastline is far from the same everywhere. During our travels we have swum from long sandy beaches, smaller coves and rocky shores where the red mountains of the Esterel Mountains meet the Mediterranean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On <strong>Giens Peninsula<\/strong> There are both long beaches that attract wind and kite surfers and calmer bathing waters on the other side of the peninsula. Around <strong>Le Lavandou<\/strong> there are many sandy beaches, and in <strong>Saint-Aygulf<\/strong> We stayed at a campsite with the beach right nearby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Surfare-i-Giens-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"Surfare i Giens\" class=\"wp-image-47882\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Surfare-i-Giens-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Surfare-i-Giens-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Surfare-i-Giens-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Surfare-i-Giens-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Surfare-i-Giens-1200x673.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Surfare-i-Giens.jpg 1203w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Surfing beach on the Gien Peninsula.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Along <strong>Corniche d&#039;Or<\/strong> The coastal landscape is more dramatic. Here there are small swimming coves between the red cliffs, but it can be much more difficult to find both parking and an easy path down to the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are also swimming facilities in the cities. <strong>Cannes<\/strong> has sandy beaches in the middle of town, while the beach along the Promenade des Anglais in <strong>Nice<\/strong> consists of large, rounded stones. In <strong>Villefranche-sur-Mer<\/strong> However, there is a beach with significantly smaller stones and coarser sand in the protected bay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And if you want even more of an island feel, there are of course the Gold Islands and \u00cele Sainte-Marguerite, where we found everything from popular sandy beaches to small coves among the rocks. For us, one of the charms of the French Riviera has been the variety. You don&#039;t have to choose between city, nature and swimming. Often everything is within a fairly short distance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Strand-i-Cannes-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"Strand i Cannes\" class=\"wp-image-51383\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Strand-i-Cannes-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Strand-i-Cannes-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Strand-i-Cannes-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Strand-i-Cannes-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Strand-i-Cannes-1200x673.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Strand-i-Cannes.jpg 1203w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Helena on the beach in Cannes.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Kora_bil_langs_Franska_rivieran\"><\/span>Driving along the French Riviera<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Driving along the French Riviera can be stunningly beautiful, but it&#039;s not always the fastest or most relaxing drive in France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The coast is densely populated in many places and traffic can be intense, especially during the summer and around the major holiday resorts. We have several times chosen to park a bit outside the center and walk or take public transport the last stretch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1801-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-267864\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1801-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1801-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1801-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1801-224x126.jpg 224w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1801-18x10.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1801-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1801-590x332.jpg 590w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1801-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1801.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the same time, there are roads that are worth the trip in themselves. Our big favorite is <strong>Corniche d&#039;Or between Saint-Rapha\u00ebl and Cannes<\/strong>, where the road follows the red cliffs of the Esterel Mountains along the Mediterranean Sea. We wanted to stay here pretty much the entire time, which didn&#039;t really fit in with us traveling in a large camper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So don&#039;t just count kilometers when planning a trip along the French Riviera. A few miles along the coast can take considerably longer than you think, especially if you want to stop, swim and discover places along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Snapshot_3-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-267816\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Snapshot_3-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Snapshot_3-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Snapshot_3-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Snapshot_3-224x126.png 224w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Snapshot_3-18x10.png 18w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Snapshot_3-433x244.png 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Snapshot_3-590x332.png 590w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Snapshot_3-600x338.png 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Snapshot_3.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Winding roads along the Corniche d&#039;Or<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Franska_rivieran_med_husbil\"><\/span>French Riviera by motorhome<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We have travelled along the French Riviera by motorhome on several occasions and absolutely think it works. However, the area does require a bit more planning than many other parts of France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The biggest challenge is often <strong>the parking lot<\/strong>. Already during our first trip along the Riviera we saw signs prohibiting motorhomes in certain parking lots and coastal areas. With a large motorhome we have therefore rarely tried to drive right into the most visited city centers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1023\" height=\"680\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Husbilsparkering-f\u00f6rbjuden.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-27227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Husbilsparkering-f\u00f6rbjuden.jpg 1023w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Husbilsparkering-f\u00f6rbjuden-600x399.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Husbilsparkering-f\u00f6rbjuden-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Husbilsparkering-f\u00f6rbjuden-900x598.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1023px) 100vw, 1023px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Reminders that you are not allowed to park your camper along the coastal stretch\u2026<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When we visited <strong>Saint-Tropez<\/strong> we parked outside the center and walked in. On other occasions we have used camping as a base and taken the bus, train or boat. From <strong>Villefranche-sur-Mer<\/strong> For example, we took the train to Nice, and from Le Lavandou we traveled by boat to the Gold Islands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Campsites are located in many places along the coast and for us they have often been the most convenient option. However, during high season they can be full. When we arrived in Le Lavandou in the middle of summer, we had to contact a long line of campsites before we found a free spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the Giens Peninsula we stayed at Camping Olbia and in Saint-Aygulf we found a campsite close to the beach. We have also stayed at campsites near Cannes and Antibes and used them as a starting point for excursions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1780-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-267861\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1780-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1780-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1780-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1780-224x126.jpg 224w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1780-18x10.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1780-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1780-590x332.jpg 590w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1780-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1780.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">At Camping Les Treilles in Antibes.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our best advice is therefore not to necessarily try to stay in the middle of the most famous resorts.

When we traveled here during the height of summer, we have experienced days when the heat has meant that ambitions have had to be adjusted significantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#039;s not always the day for a long hike up a mountain when the thermometer has passed 30 degrees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For those who want to combine swimming with excursions, walks and sightseeing, we therefore think that <strong>late spring or early autumn<\/strong> can be extra nice. Then it is still pleasant by the Mediterranean Sea while it is often easier to move along the coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even during the spring-winter and early spring, the Riviera can offer a significantly milder climate than back home in Sweden, but then you shouldn&#039;t expect the same beach holiday as in the middle of summer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hur_lange_behover_man_pa_Franska_rivieran\"><\/span>How long do you need on the French Riviera?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#039;s possible to get a taste of the French Riviera in a few days, but the area is larger and more varied than you might first imagine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do you have <strong>three to four days<\/strong> We would choose a part of the coast and stay there instead of trying to get from one end to the other. Cannes and Nice and the surrounding areas can, for example, fill several days, as can the area around Saint-Tropez and the Esterel Mountains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Med <strong>one week<\/strong> is it possible to combine several destinations and still have time to stop for swimming and spontaneous excursions. Do you have <strong>two weeks<\/strong> you can travel much more leisurely and also include one of the Golden Islands, hiking or days when you simply don&#039;t do much at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The last thing is easy to forget in a place where there is so much to see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/cannes-restaurang-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"cannes restaurang\" class=\"wp-image-72396\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/cannes-restaurang-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/cannes-restaurang-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/cannes-restaurang-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/cannes-restaurang-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/cannes-restaurang.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-container faktaruta uagb-block-0e0075b0 default uagb-is-root-container\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Vara_favoriter_pa_Franska_rivieran\"><\/span>Our favorites on the French Riviera<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After several trips along the C\u00f4te d&#039;Azur, we have of course come up with some personal favorites. This is not a scientific ranking, but simply the places and experiences that have stuck with us a little bit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Most beautiful car trip:<\/strong> Corniche d&#039;Or. The combination of the red cliffs of the Esterel Mountains and the blue Mediterranean Sea is hard to beat. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The city we would love to return to:<\/strong> Cannes. We have experienced the city both in the midst of the chaos of the film festival and on much calmer days and enjoy the mix of beach, city life, old quarters and people.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Greatest nature experience:<\/strong> The Esterel Mountains. Especially because the landscape was so different from the image we had of the French Riviera.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Most mythical place:<\/strong> Saint-Tropez. We&#039;re glad we went there, but it wasn&#039;t actually one of our personal favorites.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Best combination of city and small coastal town:<\/strong> Nice and Villefranche-sur-Mer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The most different excursion:<\/strong> \u00cele du Levant. The naturist island where our day trip unexpectedly ended with a night in a tent is definitely one of the more unusual experiences from our travels along the French Mediterranean coast.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ar_Franska_rivieran_vard_ett_besok\"><\/span>Is the French Riviera worth a visit?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For us, the answer is definitely yes. We have returned to the French Riviera several times and each trip has shown us a new side of the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first time we were fascinated by the luxury cars, villas and boats around Saint-Tropez and Sainte-Maxime. Later we cycled on Porquerolles, slept in a tent on a naturist island, ended up in the middle of the Cannes Film Festival, celebrated a 50th birthday in Saint-Aygulf and drove a camper van between the red cliffs of the Esterel Mountains and the Mediterranean Sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Perhaps it&#039;s the contrasts that make us love the French Riviera so much. Here you&#039;ll find the glamour that the area is known for, but also wild nature, small coves, islands, old towns and completely ordinary days camping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And we&#039;re still not done. Antibes, Monaco and Menton are still waiting for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"767\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1723-1024x767.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-267770\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1723-1024x767.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1723-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1723-768x575.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1723-224x168.jpg 224w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1723-16x12.jpg 16w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1723-433x325.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1723-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/batch_IMG_E1723.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Helena and Peter from FREEDOMtravel.se, on location on the French Riviera.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-container faktaruta uagb-block-910940cb default uagb-is-root-container\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fragor_och_svar_om_Franska_rivieran\"><\/span>Questions and Answers about the French Riviera<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Are the French Riviera and the C\u00f4te d&#039;Azur the same thing?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, the terms are used in practice for the same area. C\u00f4te d&#039;Azur is the French name, while French Riviera is the Swedish name. However, exactly where the area begins in the west is not clearly defined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where does the French Riviera begin and end?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The eastern part extends to the Italian border at Menton. Where the western border should be drawn varies between different definitions. In broader tourist contexts, Hy\u00e8res and the Golden Islands are often also included in the C\u00f4te d&#039;Azur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which resort on the French Riviera should you choose?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It depends on what you are looking for. <strong>Nice<\/strong> is well suited for those who want to combine city life and swimming, while <strong>Cannes<\/strong> offers beach, shopping and movie glamour. Around <strong>Esterelbergen<\/strong> is nature more dramatic and <strong>Gien Peninsula and the Golden Islands<\/strong> Suitable for those who want more nature, swimming and outdoor activities. <strong>Saint-Tropez<\/strong> is the choice for those who want to experience one of the Riviera&#039;s most legendary resorts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When is the best time to go to the French Riviera?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For beach holidays, summer is the warmest, but July and August are also the most popular months. Late spring and early autumn are often better suited if you want to combine swimming with sightseeing, hiking and car trips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is it possible to travel along the French Riviera by motorhome?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, we have done it several times. However, parking can be difficult in the most popular coastal resorts, especially with a larger camper. Camping outside the center and further transportation by public transport, boat or on foot has often worked best for us.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"freed-1756326727\" class=\"hide-label freed-after-content_2 freed-entity-placement method-missing not-front type-post not-theme-page\"><div class=\"freed-adlabel\">Advertisement<\/div><form method=\"post\" id=\"ft_newsletter_subscribe\" action=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/en\/2015\/05\/franska-rivieran\/\" class=\"ft-newsletter\" data-ajax-url=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-admin\/admin-ajax.php\" data-trp-original-action=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/en\/2015\/05\/franska-rivieran\/\">\n<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"stage\" value=\"subscribe\" \/>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Prenumerera_pa_vart_nyhetsbrev\"><\/span>Subscribe to our newsletter<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"form-field\" data-missing=\"This field is required.\" data-invalid=\"Please enter a valid email address.\">\n<label for=\"ft_newsletter_email\">Email address<\/label>\n<input id=\"ft_newsletter_email\" name=\"ft_newsletter_email\" type=\"email\" value=\"\" placeholder=\"Enter your email address\" aria-required=\"true\" \/>\n<\/p>\n<input class=\"signup button newsletter-meta-button\" type=\"submit\"  name=\"subscribe\" value=\"Subscribe\">\n<div style=\"position: absolute; left: -4200px;\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"ft-newsletter-protect\"><input type=\"text\" name=\"98d0b92c63fae1c39c28d2024aa82be8e0ab74fe\" tabindex=\"-1\" value=\"\"><\/div>\n<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"trp-form-language\" value=\"en\"\/><\/form><\/div><div id=\"freed-1426999061\" class=\"hide-label freed-after-content_3 freed-entity-placement method-missing not-front type-post not-theme-page\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 35px;\"><div class=\"freed-adlabel\">Advertisement<\/div><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/en\/\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" aria-label=\"FREEDOMtravel Exit\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/FREEDOMtravel.png\" alt=\"FREEDOMtravel Avslut\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/FREEDOMtravel.png 1200w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/FREEDOMtravel-300x100.png 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/FREEDOMtravel-1024x341.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/FREEDOMtravel-768x256.png 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/FREEDOMtravel-224x75.png 224w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/FREEDOMtravel-600x200.png 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/FREEDOMtravel-18x6.png 18w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/FREEDOMtravel-433x144.png 433w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" width=\"1200\" height=\"400\"   \/><\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>G\u00e5 vidare till FREEDOMtravel Advertisement Annons Skribent: Helena Bergstr\u00f6m Uppdaterat: September 2026 | Franska rivieran lockar med azurbl\u00e5tt hav, str\u00e4nder, dramatiska kustv\u00e4gar och v\u00e4lk\u00e4nda semesterorter som Saint-Tropez, Cannes och Nice.
