Create an itinerary including Palmes Beach
Year-round sun and a pebbly beachfront await you at Palmes Beach. A popular diving hub, tourists flock to the area to gain access to dive sites from Italy to Monaco to explore wrecks and drop-offs. If you're more inclined to stay ashore, relax on a beach mat on the pebbly shore or take a dip in the clear, turquoise water. The beach is just steps from downtown, so you'll enjoy the convenience of cafes, bars, and ice cream shops within a couple minutes' walk. Use our Menton trip builder site to add Palmes Beach and other attractions to your Menton vacation plans.

    True beach of Menton, with very nice sand and great water, by the look of it. Long and lovely promenade in the back.
