Why Cannes matters
Cannes is famous for the film festival in May, but it is also a relaxed seaside town with a historic hill quarter and sandy beaches. The long seafront promenade is a good place for a stroll, and ferries leave for the Lérins islands.
Talking points
- The film festival takes place every May.
- The old hill quarter is called Le Suquet.
- Boats cross to the Lérins islands from the port.
