To the west, yearly events offer ample opportunity to see and be seen, from glamorous nightspots in St. Tropez, to the very chic Cannes Film Festival, to the unparalleled Grand Prix at Monaco.

In the south of France, Antibes is the center of yachting in the south of France, with its Picasso Museum.

Here, the Isle of Capri, the Blue Grotto, Ischia, the spectacular Amalfi coast and the artist community of Positano all have their unique seductiveness, while superb food and fine wine are also as abundant here as blue skies.
