Marquet Beach, Cap d'Ail

1. Plage Marquet Beach, Cap d'Ail

Location
Monaco

Plage Marquet is the most easterly of the Cap d’Ail beaches and is right on the border with Monaco.

The easiest of the Cap d’Ail beaches to access and therefore often the most popular/crowded during the busy times of the year.

If you come by car, you’ll find plenty of parking right next to the beach, which makes it a popular option for families. There are ramps leading onto the sand, meaning that access is also easy for those using wheelchairs/pushchairs.

Plage du Larvotto Beach

2. Plage du Larvotto Beach

Location
Monaco

Larvotto is the principality of Monaco's most popular sandy beach and the main one with free public access. Covered in smooth imported fine gravel this man-made beach is made up of both private and public areas of beach.

Despite being a beach in a city setting this is one of the gems of Monaco. Beautiful clear water for swimming, soft pebble beach for sunbathing and plenty of good eateries around to satisfy even the pickiest of foodies.

In the stretches of private beach you can hire a lounger and a parasol from the beach club, plus enjoy a cocktail and some food while you top up your tan.

On the public stretches you will need to bring your own lounger, towel, parasol or whatever you might desire for your trip to the beach.
