Behind the wheel

Esterel Massif and the Corniche de l'Or. West of Cannes, the coast road climbs and dips along red porphyry cliffs before dropping into small ports like Théoule-sur-Mer. Bends are tight and well surfaced, which suits a car with sharper steering feedback than a standard rental. Pull-offs are limited, so plan photo stops before setting out rather than mid-corner.

Antibes and Cap d'Antibes. A shorter run east brings you to the ramparts of the old town and the villas along Cap d'Antibes. Streets in the old quarter are narrow and often pedestrianised at peak hours, so a compact or mid-size model handles the center more easily than a wide-bodied grand tourer. Marina-side parking near Port Vauban is straightforward outside July and August.

Nice and the Promenade des Anglais. Nice sits roughly forty minutes from Cannes along the coastal route, and the Promenade itself is where an open-top or a low, distinctive model earns its keep. Traffic thickens near the airport and old town at midday, so an early afternoon departure from Cannes avoids the worst of it.

Monaco via the Grande Corniche. The high road above the coast, once used for hillclimbs, offers sightlines over the Mediterranean and a string of switchbacks before the descent into Monaco. Parking in the Principality is metered and can fill quickly around race weekends and evening events, so arriving before dusk gives more choice of spots near the harbor.

Mougins and the Grasse hinterland. Inland from Cannes, the roads through Mougins and up toward Grasse trade sea views for hairpins through hills covered in olive groves and, in season, flowering fields tied to the perfume trade. Surfaces are good but narrower than the coast road, favoring agility over outright width. It's a shorter loop, well suited to a half-day drive before returning for dinner on the coast.
