Located on the southern side of France and within the beautiful Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region, the resort city of Cannes is known for its constant sunshine. Cannes enjoys a coastal setting next to the Mediterranean Sea (Mer Méditerranée) and is just a short drive from the cities of Nice and Monaco, both of which lie to the north-east.

Also close to the Maritime Alps, Cannes is famous for its sandy beaches, which are based around the Boulevard de la Croisette. This scenic waterfront promenade heads eastwards from the Palais des Festivals et des Congrés and past the Baie de Cannes, towards the Pointe de la Croisette.
