Blue and white striped mattresses and umbrellas. Tables covered with white cloth tablecloths. A touch of green represented by plants and floral bouquets. The “Blue Beach” is a private beach that charms with its simplicity. The clientele includes guests from the large hotels across the road, locals from Nice, and foreign tourists alike. After paying an entrance fee of 4 euros, visitors can enjoy their day by the water with a mattress rental costing 14 euros. Renting a lounge chair costs 10 euros, and renting an umbrella or a towel is 5 euros.
As for the restaurant, the à la carte prices vary. One can expect to pay between 16 and 51 euros for seafood dishes (with the most expensive dish being lobster at 51 euros). Meat dishes will cost between 17 and 23 euros. Children are certainly not forgotten, as a kids’ menu priced at 11 euros is specially available for them. To accompany the meals, a refreshing drink is welcome. Prices range from 2.30 euros for a coffee to 10 euros for a cocktail, with a soda at 4 euros and draft beer at 3.50 euros.
However, ambiance isn’t everything, as the private beach “Le Blue Beach” has seen a 15% drop in its clientele compared to last year. The cause: bad weather, not the crisis or the prices as one might think. The only times when there is an increase in clientele compared to the previous year are on sunny days.
Days when it is pleasant to organize small gatherings with family, friends, or colleagues. The “Blue Beach” is one of those private beaches that organizes events such as weddings, birthdays, family meals, dinner conferences, and banquets upon customer requests. The more adventurous visitors can also enjoy water sports offered by the private beach: parasailing, canoeing, or pedal boating. So it’s up to you to choose between sport and relaxation…
