Known to many as a glitzy haven attractive to artists and sun-seekers alike, the French Riviera is home to upscale Paloma Beach and a multitude of luxury hotels. Aside from its glamorous features, the area particularly strikes with its visual qualities, as captured by artist Henri Matisse, who lived in the area for his health from 1917: “When I realised that each morning I would see this light again, I could not believe my luck." This sentiment rings true for every corner of the region, with its wild beauty, luxurious nature, paired with authentic, welcoming people showing few pretensions.
