Iles de Lerins
Two islands a 15-minute ferry ride from Cannes harbour, with pine forests, coastal paths, and a working monastery. The islands themselves are free to explore; only the ferry crossing has a cost.

Other places worth the walk, and what each one costs.
Le Suquet
The old town climbing the hill above the port, with narrow lanes, the medieval watchtower, and panoramic views over the bay. Free to explore and the most authentic quarter in a city built on spectacle.
Marche Forville
A covered Provencal market two blocks from La Croisette selling local produce, cheese, and flowers every morning except Monday. Free to browse and far more interesting than the designer boutiques outside.
