Garoupe Lighthouse (Phare de la Garoupe)

Rising from the highest point of Cap d'Antibes, the Garoupe Lighthouse has guided mariners since its construction in the 19th century. Visitors can climb to the top for a breathtaking 360-degree panorama that stretches from the Alps to the Mediterranean, taking in Cannes, Nice, and the Lerins Islands. The surrounding park, with its pine trees and wildflowers, is a peaceful spot for a picnic or a moment of reflection. The lighthouse itself, painted white with a red lantern room, is a classic postcard image of the Riviera. Inside, a small museum tells the story of the lighthouse's history and the region's maritime heritage. On clear days, the visibility is extraordinary, making it a favorite for photographers and romantics alike. The site is also a popular starting point for coastal walks along the Cap d'Antibes peninsula.
