12 شيئًا يمكنك القيام بها في سباق جائزة موناكو الكبرى بعد السباق (2026)

Monaco during Grand Prix weekend is a 2km principality with 200,000 visitors. If you are not on the grandstand or a yacht every minute of four days, the smart play is to leave town. The Riviera between Menton and Cannes hides a dozen better days than another lap of Casino Square. Here are the 12 things to do at Monaco GP weekend that locals actually pick, with train times and honest prices.

The 12 things to do at Monaco GP weekend

1 Walk Eze village and the Friedrich Nietzsche path

The medieval village clings to a cliff 400m above the sea. The cobbled walk to the Exotic Garden takes 20 minutes and the view from the top is one of the most photographed on the Riviera. Cocktail or lunch at Chateau de la Chevre d’Or if you want to stretch it. 15 minutes from Monaco by train, then a 20-minute shuttle bus uphill from Eze-sur-Mer station.

2 Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat coastal walk

The Pointe Saint-Hospice loop is one of the cleanest 2-hour walks in France. Pine, rock, and a sea so clear it does not look real. End at Plage de Paloma Beach for lunch (around €60 to €90 per person) or at Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild for the formal gardens (€18).

3 Villefranche-sur-Mer old town and harbour

The closest postcard. Five minutes by train from Monaco, then you are inside a fishing village painted yellow and ochre. The Chapelle Saint-Pierre is decorated by Jean Cocteau. The harbour beach is small and useable. Lunch on the quay or a coffee at Cafe du Pirate.

4 Larvotto beach and Japanese Garden (in Monaco)

If you do not want to leave the principality, Larvotto is the public beach on the east side. The renovated promenade is open year-round. A 10-minute walk west, the Japanese Garden is free and gives shade. Useful before evening clubs on Avenue Princesse Grace.

5 Boat day-trip from Villefranche or Cap d’Ail

The smart move if you want sea without GP weekend yacht-party prices. Skipper-driven half-day charters from Villefranche, Cap d’Ail or Beaulieu run from around €450 to €700 for the boat (up to 6 to 10 people), not per person. Swim at Plage Mala, anchor off Cap-Ferrat. See our guide to renting a boat in Monaco.

6 Antibes old town and Picasso Museum

The old town is a square mile of yellow ramparts, a daily market on Cours Massena, and one of the best Picasso collections in Europe at the Chateau Grimaldi. Lunch in the market or seafood at Le Brulot. 1h train from Monaco, but worth it.

7 Cannes Croisette and Iles de Lerins

If you have a Sunday morning before the race (or, better, a Monday after), Cannes is 1h by train. Walk the Croisette, then a 15-minute ferry to Sainte-Marguerite island for forest, beach and the Man in the Iron Mask fortress. Round-trip ferry around €18.

8 Saint-Paul-de-Vence and Fondation Maeght

The most famous hilltop village in France, plus one of the great modern art museums. Calder and Giacometti in a Mediterranean garden. La Colombe d’Or is the legendary lunch (Picasso, Chagall, Matisse paid in paintings). 1h drive or bus from Nice, less straightforward from Monaco without a car.

9 Menton and the Cocteau Museum

East of Monaco. Italian-coloured houses, lemon trees, a long pebble beach and the Bastion museum that Jean Cocteau redesigned himself. Quieter than Nice and prettier than Cannes for a slow lunch. 12 minutes from Monaco by train.

10 Oceanographic Museum of Monaco

The Albert I building, the aquarium, the shark tank and the rooftop terrace over the harbour. The smart choice with kids in Monaco. Tickets are around €19 adult, €13 child. Combine with a walk on Le Rocher and the Prince’s Palace square.

11 Plage Mala swim (below Cap d’Ail)

The hidden beach Niceois know. A 10-minute steep staircase below Cap d’Ail station gets you to a tiny cove with the clearest water within 10km of Monaco. Two restaurants, day beds in summer. Closes at sunset.

12 Watch the race from a chartered boat (no grandstand needed)

If you do not have a yacht-party ticket but want to see the race from sea, a skipper-driven charter can anchor outside the harbour exclusion zone. You do not see the cars, but you hear them and you watch the broadcast on board. From around €700 for a half-day with 4 to 6 people. See our دليل تأجير القوارب في موناكو.

Logistics from Monaco

Train tickets from Monaco Monte-Carlo cost €2 to €8 depending on the destination. During GP weekend, trains run roughly every 20 minutes and stay open until around midnight. Sunday afternoon return trains east-bound are packed: leave by 4pm or after 9pm.
