Transfer Nice Airport to Cagnes-sur-Mer

The closest of all our coastal destinations, Cagnes-sur-Mer packs three towns into one: a medieval hilltop village, a lively centre, and a fishing-and-beach quarter on the sea. Renoir spent his last years painting here. It’s barely 13 km from Nice Airport — and our private transfer has you there in under 20 minutes.

The Journey to Cagnes-sur-Mer

Cagnes-sur-Mer is the first major town west of Nice, so the drive from the airport is short and simple — under 20 minutes along the coast or motorway. Your driver tracks your flight and meets you at arrivals, then takes you straight to your address, whether that’s a beachfront hotel in Cros-de-Cagnes or a villa up in the old village.

The town rewards visitors with real variety. High above sits Haut-de-Cagnes, a spiral of cobbled lanes crowned by the Château Grimaldi. Below, the Renoir Museum preserves the artist’s home and olive gardens, while the coast at Cros-de-Cagnes keeps its fishing-village character alongside a long pebble beach.

The Riviera’s seaside racecourse hosts flat and trotting races through summer and winter — a lively, local day out right by the beach.
