About Cagnes-sur-Mer

Cagnes-sur-Mer station sits on the busy Marseille–Ventimiglia coastal railway between Nice and Antibes, serving this small Riviera town that is perhaps best known for its medieval hilltop village and the nearby Hippodrome de la Côte d'Azur racecourse. Regional TER services operated by SNCF stop here regularly, connecting the town with Nice, Cannes, and Marseille, making it a practical base for exploring the French Riviera without the crowds of larger resorts. The station is modest in scale, and the beachfront and town centre are reachable by local bus from the forecourt.
