Poppet1964 Posted February 26, 2012 #1 Share Posted February 26, 2012 I was all set to go to Nice on the EPIC this summer when they changed the port to Cannes. I was planning on a day of markets and beach time. Can anyone tell me about the markets in Cannes (are they interesting? Are they within walking distance of pier?)? What's the best beach in Cannes? Doesn't necessarily have to be public, can be private if you can pay to use it. I've heard they're sand beaches, so that's nice. Thanks for the info!
