Regence plage, Private beach in Nice, France
Regence Plage is a private beach along the Mediterranean coast featuring comfortable sunbeds and a restaurant serving regional specialties during warm months. The space stretches along the Promenade des Anglais and provides shade through sun umbrellas and palm trees.
Regence Plage opened in the early 1990s as a private beach concession on the Promenade des Anglais. It later became the beach club of the Radisson Blu Hotel Nice, which stands directly behind it at 223 Promenade des Anglais. The beach has kept its position on this stretch of the Baie des Anges since then.
The restaurant uses locally sourced ingredients from the Nice region, including Alziari olive oils and seasonal vegetables, to prepare authentic Mediterranean dishes. The kitchen reflects regional culinary traditions and combines seafood with classic French cooking techniques.
The beach is easily reached on foot or by public transport from the city center, with routes running directly along the coast. The best time to visit is from April to October, when the water is warm and the restaurant operates daily.
Regence Plage takes its name from the adjacent Rue de la Régence, the street that meets the Promenade des Anglais here. The beach is a private concession on the public shingle shore, so its sunbeds and restaurant occupy a marked section of the promenade's beach rather than the whole strand.
