This site summarizes, on a constrained space, the remarkable landscapes and habitats of the Mediterranean littoral on 3 levels to be discovered by a natural progression:
• Pine forest of Aleppo pines dominating the sea
• Cliffs limestones with sprayed vegetation, sheltering many species , rare and patrimonial
• Small bottoms and drop-offs at the foot of the Cape cliffs, populated by posidonia meadows or coralligenous habitat After this long military past, the City of Antibes Juan-les-Pins and the Conservatoire du Littoral create the Sea and Coastal Area, an environmental education tool to discover the marine and terrestrial habitats and species of our corner of the Mediterranean.
The Graillon Battery is located in full Natura 2000 site. This governance allows today the implementation of a management plan for the preservation of these exceptional natural spaces present on our littoral. From June to September, from 10h to 18h30 non-stop from Tuesday to Saturday inclusive and August 15th, 21 and 22 September. Come and discover a rich and natural marine and terrestrial heritage.
