Monte Carlo is a district of Monaco
Monte Carlo is actually a district of Monaco, a principality overlooking the Ligurian Sea and surrounded by France. Its proximity to the sea makes it a popular seaside destination, featuring public beaches such as Larvotto as well as private beaches, along with marinas offering activities like kitesurfing, jet skiing, and diving. In addition, Monaco is actively expanding its territory by creating new artificial land from the sea to address its high population density, through engineering projects such as “Mareterra.”
Beaches and seaside activities
Larvotto: The most famous public beach, equipped with restaurants and shops, and featuring a protected marine area.
Private beaches: Monaco also offers private beaches that combine luxury and relaxation, with high-end services.
Fishermen’s Cove: A more secluded and wild cove with pebbles and deep water, ideal for those seeking tranquility.
Water activities: In addition to swimming, visitors can enjoy kitesurfing, jet skiing, and snorkeling.
Ports and sea views
Port Hercule: The main harbor, famous for its superyachts, deep waters, and stunning views of the Rock and the Prince’s Palace.
Port de Fontvieille: A quieter port located below the Prince’s Palace, featuring trendy restaurants and a view of the Rock.
Monaco’s expansion
Land reclamation: Monaco has a long history of expansion through the creation of artificial land, reclaiming areas from the sea to increase its surface area.
