Good beaches for a port day in Villefranche

[amcb]

Hi all,

 

I was hoping someone could let me know if there's a good beach near the port in Villefranche or a beach club/hotel that does day passes.  This is our first day of the cruise, followed by 3 really intensive port days (Florence, Rome and Pompeii).  We are a family of 5 (mom, dad, DS -12, DD-11, and DD-7).  Understanding that the 3 intensive days of sightseeing are going to be a lot for the kids, we thought starting them off with a beach day might be a good idea.  Any other suggestions for fun, relaxing, not stressful activities would also be welcome!!

 

Thanks in advance,

🙂 amcb

I don’t know of any beach clubs in Villefranche. We only saw the public beach. Keep in mind that many were topless. The beach was made up of rocky sand that was painful to walk on. Though the water is pretty, the rocky sand was not inviting to me.
