Bordering Italy, the sea and the mountains, this province inevitably has incredibly varied wilderness and culture. In the coastal cities like Cannes, Antibes, Nice and Menton the lifestyle is internationally mediterranean, and sometimes a little cosmopolitan. There are many festivals, concerts, and large sporting events on offer and after Paris the most museums of France are found in this region. Another bonus for holiday-home-owners is that Nice airport is the second-largest airport in France, with daily flights connecting Nice to the Netherlands and Belgium. At less than half-an-hour's drive inland, one can discover the beautiful villages of Valbonne, Mougins, Sospel, Tourettes-sur-Loup and Vence. Another hour's drive will get you to one of the nine national nature parks of France: the Mercantour park with peaks over 3,000 meters high. This area is inhabited by chamois, ibex, marmots and the occasional elusive wolf. At an hour's drive from the coast, one can go skiing in the months between November and April, for example in the well-known ski resort Isola 2000. The province has the best climate in France with three-hundred days of sun per year. For more information: www.cotedazur-tourisme.com
