Baie des Fourmis & Cap Ferrat Coastal Walk
Walk the Riviera's most beautiful coastal trail — from the Baie des Fourmis in Beaulieu around the Cap Ferrat peninsula, past hidden coves, royal beaches and pine cliffs.
The Riviera's most beautiful seaside path
The Cap Ferrat peninsula is home to billionaires — and to the cleanest waters of the Riviera. This trail loops the entire cape, past secret bays, royal villas and pine cliffs.
Start at the Baie des Fourmis in Beaulieu, walk around the Pointe Saint-Hospice peninsula, finish in Cap Ferrat marina. 3 km gentle walking, no traffic, sea on one side and 100-year pines on the other.
From Beaulieu to Cap Ferrat
The Riviera's quietest, most poetic walk.
1. Baie des Fourmis
Beaulieu's oval-shaped pocket bay. Turquoise water, soft pebble beach, beloved by locals. Trail starts here. Name comes from the 'ant-like' fishermen who used to crowd the rocks.
