Clubs are generally free to enter and have in a nice atmosphere; one of the largest is on the Promenade, Evenement, and is situated near Rue Gambetta, that is a few streets away. There is an excellent upmarket restaurant/club called Ôdace. It is a restaurant with a difference, it is grand (the size of a cinema) and it provides for an excellent night out.
There are several parks available. The best in the area is arguably the Parc du château. This is a park that is situated at the top of the hill in Vieux Nice (old town) that overlooks the city. The view from the hill shows the stunning breathtaking beauty of the city of Nice. There are several ways to reach the park; one can drive to the top, or take the elevator, or the “Petit Train Touristique”. This is a tourist train that one can commence their journey from the Promenade to the top, stop off for a few hours and then return. The train tours all the major favourite tourist hot spots so in all it makes a fantastic day out. It is common to have picnics and it is very well accommodating for children as it has an excellent playground and plenty of space to make noise, explore and have fun. There is never a time when a performing artist is not showing their skills; jugglers, acrobats and martial artists use this area as it has excellent free space overlooking the entire city. The other noteworthy park is Carol de Roumanie. It has a small golf putting area and a water play area, splendid for the family.
With so many day and night activities, and the wealth of quality restaurants, bars and cafes, one would probably do well just chilling out on the beach. The beach itself has many bars and restaurants that serve excellent food and wine. There are plenty of water sports available on the beach from jet skiing to para-sailing. The sea is lovely, generally calm and clean with showers peppered all along the beach.
Roller blading and Jogging are very common activities on the Promenade as well as the gentle stroll. The surface is excellent and together with the fresh early morning air, blissful sun and calming sea, one can find that the body will be well rejuvenated.
Nice has excellent commuting links to nearby towns to Antibes, Cannes, Monaco, all within a short train journey.
