Getting Around

Getting around Antibes is quite manageable. The old town and port areas are best explored on foot; it's a pleasure to wander its narrow streets. For longer distances or exploring nearby towns like Juan-les-Pins, the local Lignes d'Azur buses are efficient and affordable. Taxis are readily available, especially at transport hubs. Renting a car can be useful for venturing further afield along the Côte d'Azur, but parking within Antibes itself can be challenging and expensive, particularly in peak season. The train station also connects Antibes to Nice and Cannes, making it easy to explore without a car.
