Full Story:
During the summer months, Monaco becomes a hub for sports enthusiasts, particularly fans of motorsports. From April 27 to May 26, three races take place: the E-Prix, the Historic Grand Prix, and the Formula 1 Grand Prix. These events bring in a lot of traffic both on and off the track. To navigate the city during race weekends, the train and bus are reliable options. Trains run every 15 minutes from Cannes, Nice, and Menton, with fares ranging from €2.90 to €11.30. The ZOU! bus line 600 also provides transportation from Nice and Menton for a fare of €2.50. Another parking option is the newly built Salines parking lot, which offers 1,800 spaces and a free shuttle service to the city center. Additional parking is available at park-and-ride facilities in Beausoleil, Cap d’Ail, and Roquebrune-Cap-Martin. Getting around Monaco during the Grand Prix can be done by boat, bicycle, bus, or on foot. The Monabike electric bicycle stations offer a cost-effective way to explore the city, with prices starting at €1 for under 30 minutes. Boat rides cost €2 for a one-way trip or €5.50 for a 24-hour pass. Buses and the Monapass app are other convenient transportation options. Travelers can also use their mobile phones in Monaco without incurring additional charges.
