Coco beach, Rocky beach peninsula near Port of Nice, France.

Coco Beach is a rocky shore near Nice's port featuring natural stone formations with metal ladders leading into the deep Mediterranean. Small flat areas along the pathways serve as sunbathing spots between the rock outcrops.

A restaurant began operating on the beach in 1936 as a basic fishing structure and gradually transformed into a proper dining venue. Its roots in the fishing trade continue to influence what is served there today.

Local swimmers use this spot as a natural gathering place where diving from rocks into the sea is part of the daily routine. The way people interact directly with the rock formations shapes how the beach functions in the neighborhood.

The water becomes deep immediately after entry, so only experienced swimmers should venture in. There are outdoor showers available, and the rocks can be slippery when wet, so watch your footing.

The restaurant grills fresh fish daily over open wood fires using traditional methods. Its walls display old photographs documenting the site's origins as a fishing structure.
