4Paloma Beach, Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat

If you feel like going for something a little more exclusive on your South of France holiday, this beach is the place to be.A section of this stretch of this half-sand, half-pebble coast is reserved solely for the private use of the rich and beautiful, while the other half is available to everyone else.

As a result, take plenty of cash – you’ll need to hire a sunbed (and they’re not particularly cheap) but there’s always the possibility you can do a bit of sneaky celeb-spotting from behind your shades.
