No real advice on the beaches (we don't really do beaches and had pool so used that instead), but so jealous. We got back from South of France - stayed about 10kms inland from Frejus - on saturday, and it is overcast, chilly and raining back here now. I miss the weather!!!

On the coastal road from Cannes to St Raphael there were loads of little bays, some sandy and some pebbley. Parking on roads looked very busy, though it was possible.

No what you mean about the funny keyboard layouts too.

Have a fab time!

Thqnks Hula - we will try out that Coastal road from Cannes to St Rqphqel. Glqd to heqr you hqd q good holiday. Shame about the weqther bqck in Blightly!

We were there the first 2 weeks of the hols, and the traffic along that road was unbelievably bad - hope it is better now as the coves are lovely.

Do take the time to visit Monaco - well worth a day trip and easy if you park at the Oceonographie.
