Passable Beach on Cap-Ferrat

Passable Beach on Cap-Ferrat

On the west side of Cap-Ferrat, where the cliffs fall gently to the sea, you’ll find Plage Passable – one of the peninsula’s most charming beaches. Sheltered between pine trees and fragrant shrubbery, the small bay offers both private comfort and public access. The views of Villefranche-sur-Mer are postcard-worthy, especially at the end of the day when the sun sets over the mountains.

Passable Beach on Cap-Ferrat – quiet and away from the noise

Plage Passable is perfect for those who want to swim in quieter surroundings than the larger beaches in Nice or Monaco. The water is clear and relatively calm and there are great snorkeling opportunities close to the rocks. The beach consists mainly of pebbles, but there is a walkway and access for everyone. The west-facing location makes the beach particularly popular in the afternoon when the sun is low and creates golden light over the entire bay.

Private beach restaurant with an exclusive atmosphere

Part of the beach is reserved for Plage de Passable Beach Club, a private restaurant and lounge with sun loungers, parasols and elegant waterfront dining. Here you can enjoy everything from fresh salads and seafood to cocktails and rosé with your feet in the sand. It is advisable to book in advance during high season, especially if you want a sun lounger with a view.

Easy access despite remote location

Plage Passable is a few minutes’ walk from the road and there is paid parking close by. From the center of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat you can either walk there via the scenic Sentier du Littoral or take a local bus. The path along the coast makes it possible to combine a beach trip with a lovely hike around the peninsula.
