Menton stretches between the Mediterranean and the first foothills of the Alps, on the Italian border. The town is known for its mild climate, warm-coloured façades and subtropical gardens. The neighbourhood around Avenue Cernuschi is in the modern part of town, with the seafront and town-centre streets within walking distance. It is a convenient area for combining swimming, walks and sightseeing without leaving Menton.

Menton railway station is 300 m away and makes it easy to travel along the coast. Borrigo Beach is 400 m away; Biovès Gardens, with their planted paths and flower beds, are 540 m away. The Jean Cocteau Museum - Séverin Wunderman Collection displays works by the artist in the town centre, while Palais Carnolès houses a museum and citrus garden. Further east, Hanbury Gardens offer a botanical excursion on the Ligurian coast, near the Italian border.

Menton is pleasant to explore on foot: take a walk along the seafront, then head to the old town for its sloping lanes and the Basilica of Saint Michael. Spring brings the gardens and citrus trees to life; in summer, the beach and evening walks set the pace of the day. For a day out, the train takes you to Riviera towns, while Hanbury Gardens invite you across the border to explore Mediterranean plants.
