When you drive on the A8 motorway to Italy, you can make a stop at the Beausoleil petrol station and enjoy one of the most beautiful panoramas on Cote d'Azur, overlooking Monaco and Monte Carlo.

My experience, Explo description:

Located on the motorway A8, from Nice to Italy, 11 km before the Italian border, this Avia gas station dominates the Mediterranean sea by 500m. From the parking area, you will have an extraordinary view on the Principality of Monaco, on the coast from Cape d’Ail till Cap Martin, and on the hilltop village of La Turbie.

My personal recommendations:

When you use the A8 Highway from Nice to Italy, you must absolutely make a break on this area to take advantage of the view.

How getting there:

5 km after the La Turbie exit.

A tip to eat:

Small snack
