Culinary SpecialitiesCannes is very much an international town and, consequently, there is an international flavour to the restaurants. French food is readily available but it is perfectly easy to find restaurants serving Italian food and “American”.
Lifestyle
Life is good in Cannes because it is a magnet for international tourism. The crescent-shaped beach offers beautiful sand and the local restaurants have a variety of menus and prices, depending on their proximity to the beach.
Sights

The Musée d'Art et d'Histoire de Provence is located in an 18th century mansion and is the place to visit if your interests lie in viewing prehistoric artefacts. Other museums of interest in Cannes include the Musée de la Castre, home to Peruvian relics and museums featuring items from the sea, music and the world of perfumery.
