Nice Port, Port in France

Nice Port, also known as Port Lympia, is a picturesque marina that accommodates fishing boats, yachts, and ferries.

Established in the 18th century, Nice Port has been instrumental in the economic development of the city.

The port area reflects the vibrant culture of Nice, with colorful facades, local cuisines, and Mediterranean charm.

It serves as a transportation hub for tourists seeking to explore the French Riviera and nearby Corsica.

The port's distinctive 'Lympia' name comes from the Lympia spring that fed a small lake in a marshy zone where work on the port first started.

Nice, between sea and light: the places where the city invites photography

Nice is a city that draws attention even before the camera is brought out. The light changes constantly, soft in the morning, golden in the evening, radiant at midday. From the heights of the Castle Hill to the Promenade des Anglais, every corner seems made for photography. The old town offers its colorful streets, Place Masséna its red facades, the Russian cathedral its unexpected domes. Further out, the port, gardens, and beaches form a scene familiar to Niçois. It is a city viewed as much as experienced, between blue horizons and ochre walls, always ready to be framed differently.
