Pointe du Cap Martin

Directions

Reaching this viewpoint feels like a reward. The path follows the coastline, with the sea constantly in view, before opening up to one of the most complete panoramas on this stretch of the Riviera.

At Pointe du Cap Martin, in Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, you get a clear perspective of the coastline in both directions. Look right, and you’ll see Monaco and its dense skyline. Look left, and the view stretches toward Menton and the Italian border, with layers of coastline fading into the distance.

The spot sits along the coastal path (sentier du littoral), making it a natural stop during a scenic walk. The combination of sea, cliffs, and open views makes it especially popular with photographers and anyone looking for a quieter alternative to crowded viewpoints.

👉 Local Tip: Walk here from Menton or Roquebrune for the full experience. The viewpoint is great, but the coastal trail leading to it is what makes it memorable.
