Sailing into the Côte D’Azur harbour of the Pearl of France from Monaco. Menton old port marina, Gordon Bennet and whacky fruit festival, the resting place of William Webb Ellis the inventor of Rugby, or was he? We explore the town to find out. This is our last port in France sailing 2000 miles from Hull in Yorkshire, England.
