When is the best time of the year to visit France? My husband and I are specifically interested in visiting the Cote De Azur region.

June 29.

Best wishes,

Rex

I like June. The weather is warm enough to go to the beach but usually isn't sweltering.

lol Rex!
Hi Crimmy, so you want to go to Burgundy AND to la Cote d'azur?
May/june are perfect..

Rex I am absolutely sure it's June 30 or is it a timezone thing

Cote d'Azur will be nice from February thru November. Swimming is comfortable from late May thru end of October. Under all circumstances, avoid August: too crowded and too hot. October is a nice time, because weather will be good (around 25°C), the sea is nice for swimming, the flowers are in their second bloom and everything is relaxed. My tip: The most beautiful landscape is a the Esterel Coast, between St. Raphael and Cannes.

Hi, My family (3 children) is planning a trip to Cote D'azur in Sept. We have two places lined up in Grimaud near St Maxime. Is there a big differnce between the weeks of the 8th to 15th or 15th to 22? And also is this a good place to have a home base?

silvia, you've added your question to a post from 2005 and your question is a bit more specific than the original posters.
