ABOUT OLD TOWN OF CANNES (LE SUQUET):
Le Suquet is the old quarter of Cannes, probably best known to tourists as the climbing, winding cobbled lane lined with local restaurants, Rue St Antoine. Le Suquet contains a clock tower and church that sit high facing east overlooking the Bay of Cannes and Cannes itself. At the bottom of Le Suquet is the Marche Forville, where the market is held in the mornings and early afternoon. It is a 5 minute walk from the beach and is full of restaurants around the rue St Antoine and the rue du Suquet. A lot of the area is pedestrianised and is a major tourist attraction for visitors to Cannes. The rue du Suquet is the original main road into Cannes. It came in below the walls of the castle (very good for defence). Ironically it is a pedestrian street again but full of good quality gourmet restaurants.
Once up on Rue du Suquet, stop at one of the outdoor cafes and sip a coffee or a glass of wine while enjoying the sight of the easy stroll of passers by. You can chat with the locals in Suquet the old quarter of Cannes away from the mega yachts at the harbour. The view is one not to miss from the top looking down.
