All the beaches in Menton are free. Or rather, with free entrance. But you'll have to pay for extra amenities (umbrella, sun lounger). Or go to rest with their own beach "equipment". The coast is covered with golden sand or fine pebbles. Water - the color of sky-blue azure (as it should be on the Cote d'Azur). Special underground sewage treatment plants help to keep the sea clean.
Which is the best beach in Menton?
Hawaii (closest to Italy) is small, but extremely attractive for lovers of active sports. There are no breakwaters here, so all surfing fans rush here for "their" wave, which, by the way, are quite high.
The small pebble beaches of des Sablettes (near the port) and du Fossan (opposite the Old Town) are ideal for families with children in Menton. They are protected by breakwaters and have lifeguard stations and playgrounds on the shore. Avid divers can jump into the water from special floating pontoons.
The Beach du Casino (near the casino) has facilities for people with disabilities.
The westernmost beach du Borrigo is a favorite of locals. It doesn't have the same infrastructure as the central beaches, but there are fewer tourists and the prices are much nicer.
