2026 Private Beach Opening Calendar in Nice
Several private beaches along Nice's Promenade des Anglais keep their restaurants open year-round. However, the full rollout of beach facilities — sun loungers, parasols, and changing cabins — follows a precise seasonal schedule, ensuring a perfectly maintained shoreline from the first warm days of the year.
Key Beach Establishments on the Nice Seafront in 2026
The Promenade des Anglais is home to legendary addresses: Beau Rivage, Blue Beach, Castel Plage, Ruhl Plage, Le Galet and Les Canailles. Several maintain their restaurant open year-round, but the full deployment of sun loungers officially begins in April 2026. The French Riviera gradually comes to life from late March, starting with the Cannes beaches along La Croisette.
Good to know: For Nice's private beaches in 2026, booking your sun lounger online in advance is strongly recommended, especially from April weekends onwards and throughout the peak summer season, to guarantee your spot facing the sea.
