Don't mention Juan les Pins in the same breath as Antibes!!  Antibes is
delightful, Juan les Pins horrible (to my tastes).  The two towns join
across the neck of the peninsula Cap d'Antibes, which is itself fascinating
as a place to walk.  Go from Antibes up to the old pilgimage chapel
on the height of Cap d'Antibes and look at the views.  Then go down
toward the cape itself, and marvel at the millionaires' estates.

I endorse the suggestion to visit Cagnes sur Mer (Cros de Cagnes is
actually by the sea, if I remember well).  Also, for fans of
modern excess, there is a remarkable apartment complex by the beach
at the other end of the bay from Cagnes, perhaps half-way to Antibes.
It should be seen, if perhaps not believed.
