A real-time bike ride through Nice along the Mediterranean coast, following the full seaside route from Port Lympia to the far end of the Promenade des Anglais during a busy spring weekend on the French Riviera.
This immersive cycling POV begins near the harbor beside the Royal Clipper tall ship before descending toward the seafront and continuing along the entire waterfront of Nice. Throughout the ride, the Promenade des Anglais is full of movement — cyclists passing by, runners, beachgoers, families, tourists, and long stretches of palm trees beside the sea.
The atmosphere constantly shifts between crowded pedestrian areas, open coastal views, turquoise Mediterranean water, and the steady rhythm of biking through one of the most famous seaside routes on the French Riviera. With warm spring sunlight, active beaches, and nonstop movement along the coast, the ride captures the feeling of Nice during one of the first truly busy weekends of the season.
This ride was filmed on a Brompton folding bicycle, adding to the close and immersive feeling of moving through the city and along the waterfront.
