    On a clear day, there is a fabulous view across to the Nice headland and the Estérel mountains from the foot of the lighthouse. You’re now on the west side of the peninsula, which boasts a succession of coves, following one after the other, until you reach the steps marking the end of the trail. Turn left and follow the path, along the road, leading to “Le Lido” residence, then cross the car park to reach Passable beach.T
