Le Cactus, Eze

If your budget won’t stretch to the Chèvre d’Or, this modest café has the same stunning views for a fraction of the price and serves delicious crêpes .
Le Cesar’s Palace, Cannes

This is Cannes imitating Las Vegas, imitating ancient Rome. A cavernous club, with a relaxed door policy and live rap, dance and groove artists at weekends.
Le Cocotier, Toulon

Given the name (cocotier means coconut palm), it’s no surprise that this spot specializes in sunshine sounds, whether from stage or turntable. Dress is smart, the atmosphere welcoming.
Le Grand Casino, Bandol

A stylish spot in which to play the fruit machines, the tables – or the field – in two different nightclubs, Le Must and Le Blackjack. The complex also boasts a reputable restaurant.
Le Klub

Immensely popular club, especially, but not exclusively, for gays.
Le Papagayo, St-Tropez

This pillar of the resort’s jetset nightlife since 1962 shows no signs of fading. Progress from the terrace restaurant via the cocktail bar to the dance floor, to mingle with the trendy, and possibly famous.
Le Paradise, Le Lavandou

After more than 60 years of existence Le Paradise remains the centre for night-time groovers. Resembling a circus big-top, it has evolved effortlessly into the techno era and beyond.
Le Relais Martinez, Cannes

The terrace restaurant of this top Cannes hotel wins praise for its excellent menu, with many dishes in common with the Palme d’Or (see La Palme d’Or, Hôtel Martinez, Cannes).
Le Whisky a Go-Go, Cannes

Blisteringly loud music, a pounding beat and a sweaty atmosphere separate the middle-aged swingers from the real party animals in this popular Cannes disco.
Les Caves du Roy, St-Tropez

The Byblos Hotel’s legendary club has a suitably strict door policy: the unfashionable are generally unfortunate. Once selected, you’re at the heart of Tropezien nightlife (see Les Caves du Roy, St-Tropez).
