When to go
The summer months are the warmest but also the busiest and most expensive. Spring and fall you will see pleasant temps making it the perfect time to visit, although the water temps can be a bit colder if you’re looking to swim. That being said, make sure to avoid Grand Prix weekend unless you’re actually going to see the Grand Prix. It takes place in late May, the 20 – 24 2021 Covid willing.

Money
Official currency: € Euro
Budget: Not a cheap destination. If you’re on a budget it’s recommended to stay in nearby Nice, France and take the bus or train in for the day. Those with a more flexible budget can expect to pay €125 for a basic room but usually you’re looking at over €200 / night. Food, alcohol and anything you want to gamble will also cost you a fair bit.
