Weather in Nice, France during July
Nice has a round 5kms of beaches, all along the famous Promenade des Anglais. A lot of the beaches are private (but you can enter if you pay). The public beaches are however free, but they are predominantly stoney beaches. So you are best advised to hire a lounger, unless you enjoy the feel of scorching stones on skin.

But if it is especially hot, one good tip is to travel up to the North of Nice and visit the Phoenix Park. Here you will find not only a lovely park and ecological park, but you will also find the stunning Museum of Asian Art.
