A botanical garden founded in 1855 by Gustave Thuret (1817-1875) and specialising in plants which are rare and tender not often seen in Europe (eg from the Canary Islands, South Africa and New Zealand). George Sand wrote, in 1868, that 'Placed on a spit of land between two gulfs, it offers an undulating grouping of trees of all forms and of all nuances, which are enough high to hide the foregrounds of the surrounding landscape [... ] One is in an Eden which seems to swim in the vastness'.

Very nice park on the Cap d'Antibes with an impressive number of species and very old trees. More trees than flowers. Unfortunately it is closed on Saturday, Sundays and holidays, but on the other hand it is free the other days.
