Plage du Fort Carré, Public beach near Fort Carré in Antibes, France
The grey shingle beach stretches along the Bay of Angels, marking a transition point between pebble and sand beaches of the French Riviera coast.
The beach developed as a natural extension of the military complex around Fort Carré, which protected Antibes' harbor since the 16th century.
Local fishermen gather at dawn and dusk along the shoreline, maintaining traditional Mediterranean fishing practices throughout the seasons.
Free parking spaces line the beach front, while summer visitors can find refreshments at seasonal food kiosks and use the fresh water showers.
The beach slope creates particularly strong waves during windy conditions, attracting water sports enthusiasts who practice surfing in winter months.
