Juan les Pins, Provence Alpes Côte d'Azure

Juan-les-Pins is a town in the region of Antibes at the heart of the French Riviera. For those who love lazing about, relaxing, and sandy beaches, it is a mandatory stop-off between Cannes and Nice. A former fishing hamlet founded in 1882, today Juan-les-Pins is town popular with tourists in summer.
This seaside resort town has seen some big names, including Gilbert Bécaud, Ray Charles, Charles Trenet and Edith Piaf. Incidentally, the European Jazz Festival has been held here every year since 1960.
To develop its tourism, of which its neighbours are so proud, Juan-les-Pins is rebuilding its 'Palais des Congrès', which is scheduled to open in early 2013.
As you can see, this corner of the French Riviera has everything you'll need for a sun-filled stay in southeast France.
