Cannes, a charismatic, irresistible charm in the South of France. Capturing the best way to travel, the side door moment, opening onto those amazing views, stepping out onto fine sand and feeling the warm breeze in your hair, Vanlife can be very special 😊 Gassin ~ a beautiful hilltop village near St Tropez, South of France Wanting to visit Cannes but not sure where to park the campervan? Ste Maxime is a laid back beach side resort on the Mediterranean coast of France, a perfect destination for all year travel and with a motorhome Aire for ease of parking for those vanlife adventures. The Corniche de L’Esterel situated between St.Raphael and Theole Sur Mer is a dramatic stretch of coast, where orange tinges of jagged rock create impressive formations rising into the sky, whilst sheer cliffs drop off into the Mediterranean Sea below.
