In front of the once mythic Palm Beach casino and disco (now closed), this small public beach attracts some devoted locals who enjoy getting away from the crowds on La Croisette.

There are in fact two small public beaches on either side of the Gotha Beach restaurant and beach. Facilities are non-existent though. Forget about beach showers and lifeguards. Sea access is easier on the western side. The eastern side has rocks just under the water.

Parking and Transport

Next to the beach is a free parking lot that holds 183 vehicles. It's rarely full. Local bus line 8 runs along La Croisette and to Moure Rouge. Get off at stop Palm Beach.

Gotha Beach restaurant and Beach Club

The main highlights of Gotha-Beach are the pontoon that stretches out to the sea and small swimming pool that's perfect for kids or those who just want to cool off. The style is appealingly wind-blown shabby chic and the reasonably-priced dishes have a distinctly modern twist on Mediterranean classics.
