Nice

Nice, the capital of the Côte d'Azur, is not 'nice' - what an insult! Nice is a sparky, sexy city, with a gritty underside that keeps it grounded. If Nice were a person, it would wear designer cocktail dresses with old army boots, cause lots of trouble and be livid about that insipid adjective.

Nice Weather


The Côte d'Azur has a proven reputation for sun, with an average 2500 hours per year. Winter (Nov-Feb) hardly ever gets colder than 5°C (41°F) and from then on it's all just differing degrees of warm, from a mild average of 15°C (59°F) most of the year right up to temperatures of 40°C (104°F) in July and August.
