Nice France is BEAUTIFUL and we are so lucky to have family there. The mediterranean sea is the most beautiful hue of blue that you won't find anywhere else in the world. The beach, well, that's another story. Pebbles and stones galore. If you have sensitive feet, its a killer. I don't think anyone would ever go to this beach if it weren't for the topless sunbathing. I think Nice figured this out and made topless bathing mandatory. Anyway, this was an especially windy day so the waves are usually not this rough. Still, it's a pain in the foot getting in and out of the water.
