Great summer tips for enjoying and exploring Nice!
Summer is finally here in Nice! The Mediterranean sparkles, the sun is shining, and the temperature is rising. Looking for the best way to explore Nice and the surrounding area without suffering from the heat or wasting time in traffic jams? Whether you’re with friends or as a couple, here are our top tips for an unforgettable summer getaway with Mobilboard Nice.
✔️ Our favorite times: ride while it’s cool!
In the middle of summer, timing is key for a bike ride in Nice. Mornings and late afternoons are the ideal times to explore the city in the shade of Old Nice’s narrow streets, when temperatures are still mild and pleasant.
Our tip: Choose our 9:30 a.m. or late-afternoon departures. That’s the locals’ secret to enjoying the city without getting overheated!
✔️ Grab your swimsuit—we’re going for a swim!
Do you dream of escaping the crowds on the Promenade des Anglais? Join us for our e-bike tour with a swim. We’ll take you on a ride along the coast toward Villefranche-sur-Mer to reach one of the most beautiful coves on the French Riviera. Once there, your guide will be happy to let you enjoy a well-deserved refreshing break in the turquoise waters.
Essential checklist: A swimsuit, a towel, sunscreen, sunglasses, and—why not?—your snorkel gear to explore the seabed!
✔️ The Sunset Tour by e-bike: a must-do on your vacation
This is the go-to activity for couples and groups of friends after a lazy afternoon at the beach. Starting at 6 p.m., as the sun slowly begins to set, the light over the Baie des Anges becomes magical and the atmosphere changes completely. A magnificent bike ride to take in the breathtaking views… before heading out for drinks!
The Mobilboard bonus: At the end of the tour, your guide (who knows Nice like the back of their hand) will share their top local picks with you: the trendiest bars, coolest restaurants, and hottest nightclubs of the moment to keep your evening going until the wee hours.
✔️ Rent an e-bike… and explore at your own pace!
For free spirits who want to explore the French Riviera further and without constraints, renting an e-bike in Nice is your best option. Thanks to the electric assist, the region’s most beautiful beaches are within easy reach:
- La Gravette Beach in Antibes for a 100% bike path route!
- Fossettes Beach in Cap Ferrat, the “island of billionaires”…
- La Mala Beach in Cap d’Ail: A true gem of the coast, this peaceful, idyllic spot is well worth the effort to reach! After your e-bike ride, a walk downhill (and a challenging climb back up the stairs) awaits you, but it’s well worth the effort to find yourself far from the hustle and bustle.
