The coastal area stretching from Saint Tropez in the west up to the French Italian border owes her name 'Côte d’Azur' to the beautiful clear azure-blue colour of the sea. And the Principality of Monaco is no different.
Well known for its sunny, mild and dependable Mediterranean climate the area has an astonishing average of some 3,000 sun hours a year and temperatures in the summer going up to 30ºC.
