| Most of the beaches in France are well-developed with plenty of amenities and few hazards.
The beaches in France along the Mediterranean Sea on the south coast are clean and soft, and are considered the finest beaches in the country. The beaches of Côte d'Azur or French Riviera are truly world-class but quite expensive. The beaches of St. Tropez and Cannes are hot favorite with celebrities and so are very costly, but beaches in Nice can be little cheaper. The north and west coasts of France offer long secluded beaches but they are colder, rougher and water here is not as clear or as warm as the Mediterranean coast. The beaches in France along the Atlantic are less crowded than their counterparts on the French Riviera, but they offer excellent conditions for surfing and other water sports. The beaches of Brittany on the Atlantic coast of France are simply superb. Corsica also has some stunning beaches, while Cap d'Agde near Montpellier are the world-famous nude beaches.
