Beaches

Plage de la Buse. The entirely public Plage de la Buse is a wonderfully small, fine-pebble beach, with few star-chasers and strutting high heels, and it's great for novice swimmers. It's lovely to be protected from the elements by the curved south-facing wall of a huge villa (whose gardens add a lovely tropical feel). Access is just down a few steps from Le Corbusier trail, but it’s completely BYO: towel, umbrella, lunch, and water/drinks (there’s no toilet). Amenities: showers. Best for: solitude; swimming. Sentier du Corbusier, Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, 06190. .
