IGY Vieux-Port de Cannes

The Vieux-Port of Cannes is distinguished by the stark contrast between traditional wooden fishing boats, known as pointus, and the towering luxury yachts moored alongside them. Situated at the foot of the historic Le Suquet hill, the port represents the original maritime cradle of Cannes, which began as a modest fishing village. Today, it operates as a primary hub for international yachting and major city events, serving as the gateway to the Lérins Islands.
