Plage de Carras, Public beach in western Nice, France

Plage de Carras stretches for around 350 meters along the coast near Nice Airport with a pebble surface and open views of the Bay of Angels. Showers, ramps for accessibility, and free parking spaces serve visitors throughout the area.

Located in the Carras district, this beach has long remained a place where local fishermen sell their daily catch at a small port. This tradition connects the area to Nice's maritime history across generations.

The sandy volleyball court here reflects how locals enjoy the beach, while the morning fish market nearby shows the area's connection to daily fishing traditions.

Lifeguards keep watch from June through September, which is the busiest season for swimming and water activities. The beach has a gentle slope and remains accessible even for those with limited mobility due to its ramp facilities.

This is the only beach in Nice where jet skiing is permitted, with rentals running from May through September. This distinction draws water sports enthusiasts who find restrictions elsewhere along the coast.
