How to avoid the worst of it today
- Saint-Honorat Morning Vineyard rows lead to the fortified monastery, and the island keeps its silence.
- The Croisette beaches Afternoon A calm-day mattress with lunch on the sand is the town at its honest best.
Where the crowds are
- The Croisette's central beaches: Reserved rows in season; the free ends carry the overflow.
- The Palais quarter in festival weeks: Congress and festival fortnights close the mile to normal life.
Quiet places in Cannes
- The Lérins islands: Trails, coves and an abbey, fifteen minutes offshore.
- Le Suquet's lanes: The old hill above the port, quiet apart from its cats.
