Port de Crouton Plage
Covered with fine white sand, this small public beach next to Cap d'Antibes Beach Hotel boasts shallows that slope very gently, making it ideal for kids. It's a protected bay, so there are no waves, just plenty of shallow water that's bathwater-warm in high summer. There are few English tourists, so it offers a real plage à la Française experience. Amenities: parking (fee); showers; toilets. Best for: snorkeling; solitude.
