Getting to and from Cannes

Located 24 kilometers to the west, Cote d’Azur International Airport in Nice is the closest major airfield to Cannes. The airport is connected to the seaside resort by express coach, train and bus service. Coaches depart the terminal every 30 minutes. The SNCF train operates between the St. Augustine station in Nice and Cannes. While coaches use the inland A8 motorway, trains travel along the scenic coastline. The least expensive option, regional bus service connects the airport terminal to the center of Cannes.
