Driving Tips for Cannes

When you rent a car in Cannes, you give yourself the freedom to explore this part of the French coast to the fullest. Just remember these recommendations for a smooth drive:

  • Share the road: Be sure to give right of way to public transportation, and beware of driving near pickup points. You’ll also encounter many cyclists and pedestrians.
  • Crit’Air sticker: Cannes is one of the cities in France that requires the Crit’Air, or clean air, sticker, to drive through emissions zones. This can be purchased online.
  • Speed limits: Within the city, be sure to stick to the speed limit of 50 km/h (31 mph) at all times, unless otherwise indicated. Outside the city, rural roads have a speed limit of 80 km/h (50 mph), while motorways have one of 130 km/h (80 mph).

Best places to visit in and around Cannes

A car rental in Cannes gives you the power to discover the Mediterranean coast of France with ease. Be sure to check out the following while you’re there:

  • Boulevard de la Croisette: This renowned street is famous for its luxury shops and restaurants. It’s also the home of the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès, the site of the Cannes Film Festival.
  • Musée des Explorations du Monde: This museum, located in the Le Suquet neighborhood, is famous for its collection of primitive art as well as ancient Oriental and Mediterranean pieces.
  • Day trip to Nice: Nice is only about an hour away from Cannes by car, and it’s well worth the visit. Nice is home to pebbly beaches, plenty of art museums, and fascinating Greek artifacts, as it was founded circa 350BCE by the Phocaeans of Marseille—a colony of Greek mariners.
