Transportation from Nice to other beaches

Hi, I am going to stay in Nice the last week in July, but I would like to go to visit some sandy beaches. Is there some train pass that I can buy that I can use for a week? What is the price? Do teenagers pay the same price? Is this pass good to go to Ventigmilia?





Thank you

SNCF don%26#39;t do any passes as you describe they are preoccupied with marketing discounts. Under 25s get a discount, holders of Carte Senior get a discount, members of Armed Forces get a discount, everyone gets a discount except me - I get nothing.





The fares are fairly small - Nice Ventimiglia is about 14 euro return adult as best I recall, Nice - is around 11 euro return. Its no big deal. Save more still by taking the bus - 1.30 flat fare between Menton and Cannes. Silly price.





Enjoy those beaches but check first before jumping in for Pelagia Noctiluca - purple stinging jellyfish. The very warm water (25C+) this year has led to a big growth in their numbers in the Med. Sometimes its clear, other times theres swarms of the little devils!





Cheers!
