Why go
This compact Fontvieille day works for visitors who like a museum visit followed by an outdoor neighborhood walk. Begin with the Museum of Stamps and Coins, then use the UNESCO Garden and harbour edge as a transition from displays to public art and waterfront views. The Princess Grace Rose Garden and adjacent park make a calm finish, with the Princess Grace statue as an optional short detour. Museum hours should be checked before setting out; the garden and harbour portions are best enjoyed in daylight and fair weather. The route keeps the museum as one part of the day rather than crowding several collections together.
