Plage Gallice, Public beach near Port Gallice in Antibes, France
Plage Gallice is a public beach next to Port Gallice featuring fine sand spread across approximately 100 meters with pine trees along the shoreline. The shaded areas from the trees provide shelter, and swimmers can enter the water directly from the sand.
This stretch of the French Riviera has hosted maritime traffic since ancient times, with Greek and Roman vessels once sailing these waters as part of Mediterranean trade routes. The port nearby evolved from these early trading traditions.
This beach serves as a gathering place where local people come for evening swims and leisure time during the warmer months. The straightforward access to the water and proximity to the port give the spot a casual, everyday character that feels lived-in rather than resort-like.
The beach provides restrooms, showers, and a seasonal snack bar that operates from April through November. Visitors should note that facilities are limited during the colder months.
This beach remains free from jet skis, motorboats, and commercial beach clubs, preserving it as a simple and natural swimming spot. This absence of commercial activity sets it apart from busier nearby beaches.
