On your doorstep

What you’re living next to if you stay here.

• 1.The Promenade des Anglais — The seven-kilometre seafront the English built to stroll in winter — now the soul of the city, made for a sunset walk, a rented bike or one of the blue chairs facing the water. Do it at least twice, once at each end of the day.
• 6.A swim in the Baie des Anges — The whole point of a warm-water city — the sea here is a startling blue and swimmable from May to October. The beach is pebbles, so hire a mat or grab a lounger at a private club, and get in early before the crowd.
• 15.The Negresco & Belle Époque seafront — The pink-domed grande dame of the Promenade, a 1913 palace hotel that's a monument in its own right — peek into the lavish lobby, then walk the seafront line of Belle Époque facades that made Nice the winter capital of Europe.
