Esterel - Corniche de l'Esterel
The Corniche de l'Esterel (N98) is a charming road which winds its way along the rocky coast between St-Raphaël and Cannes. It runs through the resort of Boulouris, passes the impressive Cap du Drammont (lighthouse; offshore the little Ile d'Or) and the village of Agay which has a fine situation on a bay; on the Pointe de la Baumette is a memorial to the aviator and writer Antoine de St-Exupéry.

Cannes is then reached via La Napoule.
