Antibes and neighbouring Golfe-Juan and Juan-les-Pins form one of the Riviera's busiest boating hubs, anchored by Port Vauban, one of Europe's largest marinas. Sailboats and motorboats are both well represented, suited to short hops along Cap d'Antibes or longer runs toward the Lérins Islands. The bay's relatively sheltered waters make it a forgiving spot for first-time renters going out without a skipper.
