1 Quai Albert 1er, Monaco

Italian restaurant with a nice terrasse and view of the Port Hercule.
Rather expensive, but you pay for the view.

I like – the stunning view of the yachts.




Malizia Mar

Esplanade Stefano Casiraghi, Monaco

We had a fantastic lunch @maliziamarmonaco, perfectly located at the base of Le Rocher, right on the pier above the harbor. 

The Caesar salad and Ravioli aux gambas were absolutely delicious. 

I like – the magnificent view!

Antibes_Nomade

The Nomade sculpture

Port Vauban, Antibes

At the end of the pier, at the bastion St. Jaume,  you’ll find the modern Nomade sculpture by Catalan artist Jaume Plensa. It looks like a person sitting with his/her knees drawn up, looking out to the sea. It is made by white metal, and comprises thousands of connecting letters. It is big enough to get inside. 

St. Donat

270 Route de Cannes, Grasse

Situated between Cannes and Grasse and about 40 min. drive from the centre of Nice. Nice diversified landscape. Holes 11 to 15 are going up and down and are rather challenging. It is well maintained even during tough weather conditions. It’s a busy course so count on close to 4h30 to make the 18 holes. The restaurant has a sunny and nice terrasse with a view over hole 9 and 10 and the lake.

Greenfee 72 euros if booking online (85 euros full price).

Ambiance and service – nice 
Quality and maintenance – very nice
Price/quality -nice
Nice to play – nice

I like – the cute little palm tree indicating the 135 metres to the green.
