A pretty colourful town of on the south-eastern coast of France near Monaco and on the Italian border. The old town and harbour was built around the outcrop formed between two large coves. A newer marina is further east around the bay with a double beach in-between.
"Menton (French: [mɑ̃tɔ̃]; Occitan: [menˈta], written Menton in classical norm or Mentan in Mistralian norm; Italian: Mentone [menˈtoːne]) is a commune in the Alpes-Maritimes department in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region on the French Riviera, close to the Italian border.
Menton has always been a frontier town. For centuries, it formed the border between Provence and Genoa. It was Italian until the disputed French plebiscite of 1860, when it was added to France. It had been always a fashionable tourist centre with grand mansions and gardens. Its temperate Mediterranean climate is especially favourable to the citrus industry, with which it is strongly identified." Wikipedia
