Is Cannes safe for solo female travelers?

Group travel

I stayed for the first week of the Cannes festival in Cannes, next to La Bocca station and La Licorne theatre and I felt safe all along. It was also really well connected and I enjoyed the surroundings. Overall a great experience !

Solo travel

Staying in Cannes as a 21 years girls was amazing. Everyone was friendly and the city felt so safe. The weather is nice, the environment very clean and the vibes perfect for some good holidays. Everything is near and the food is good.

I feel like the city is very safe in itself, the concern of something happening mainly comes from the fact that I'm a woman but I've never heard of a friend of mine getting attacked or anything like that here. I would say that everyone must be careful no matter where they are but being afraid isn't necessary.

On the principal boulevard it's safe for me, even in the middle of the night because he's always illuminated. Sometimes you have to skirt one small group of drunk men and that can be scary but it's occasional. For me the two street where you can met annoying and,or drunk people are, the street "Meynadier" and the boulevard of "République" on the train station side.

Overall pretty safe, lots or tourists and young people during the night outside and especially summer, it’s a good place to hang out. During the winter it’s pretty empty and there are not a lot of things to do. You have to stay alert like in any town, but it’s pretty safe compared to other places
