La Croisette is the walk along the beach in Cannes. It's lovely, but also very crowded. The restaurants are quite expensive so eat somewhere else. Much of the beach is privately owned by hotels, but there are public beaches at both ends of La Croisette if you wish to take a dip.

Excellent walking path along the water. The people watching is amazing. There are many small beach restaurants immediately on the water - good food, better ambience. On the opposite side of the street, high-end shopping. I was surprised how long we were able to just amble slowly along taking in the sites.

The Croisette is the place to,be in Cannes. Walking near the sea or the famous shops. Enjoying the cars, the windows, the people.

My wife and I are from Naples, Florida where Bentleys, RR's and Lamborghini's are found in every parking lot. Exclusive retailers exist by the dozen..... Other than the opportunity to people watch from a street-side brasserie this strip provides no great thrill. This seaside avenue is very crowded, even on the best of days.

Even though it rained the entire time we were in Cannes, walking the Le Croisette was wonderful. The views were beautiful in spite of the mist. We couldn't sleep one night from jet leg and found it peaceful and safe to stroll along.

April, quiet and so plenty of blue seats to just while away the moment and enjoy the view. Be aware that you are in a very popular tourist location which unfortunately does attract undesirables...common sense prevails.

I have not read other reviews on this particular avenue but I reckon everything's been already said. Thus, let me just sum up my impressions from the several walks I took along the street. Of course, the main point of hanging around there is to see and to be seen. You may feel at your best when diving into the... More

Just fun to look at the ludicrous prices people pay for things along this very posh shopping address. If you like fashion take photos, then go home and make your own.

Fun to say you have been and for many months the red carpet remains on the stairs so you can have a fun photo. Posh shops abound. One street back is Rue d'Antibes which is the shopping street in Cannes with a few Hotels in it too. to help with locating a stay if you google map Grey d'Albion it... More

We spent an entire afternoon sitting on chairs people and dog watching,, having baguette sandwiches from the stands and ice cream from another stand. It was perfect entertainment.
