  • "A HUGE beach with capacity for big parties, that can also have their own private area so as not to disturb the other tables, its well set up, a nice regional menu, lovely wines and all priced very competitively. With a car park opposite and vieux Nice just yards away, its a great spot to escape to." - Trip Advisor
