Above Guide / Curated Monaco

Things to do
in Monaco.

Monaco is a working city for fifty weeks of the year, and most of what is worth seeing has nothing to do with the racing. This is the principality on an ordinary afternoon — the Rock, the gardens, the Belle Époque interiors and the Riviera within half an hour of it.

01 / Start with intent

Not a top ten.
A better day.

Not a ranked list. Monaco is small enough that a good day is a matter of sequence rather than selection: the old town wants a morning, the gardens want light, and the villas along the coast want a whole afternoon to themselves. Pick one of each and the day builds itself.

Choose one landmark, one interior, time outside and somewhere worth lingering.

02 / Build your own Monaco

Follow what
pulls you in.

The city makes more sense when experiences are connected by interest, not forced into a generic ranking.

01

city exploration

The Rock

The old town on its limestone headland, where the principality began — and the one part of Monaco that is walked rather than driven.

01
Le Rocher, the old town
Monaco-Ville sits 60 metres above the harbour on a headland the Grimaldis have held since 1297. Narrow lanes, no traffic, and the whole of it crossable in twenty minutes.
02
Prince’s Palace of Monaco
The Grimaldi residence, with the State Apartments open to visitors from spring to autumn. The changing of the guard happens outside on the square.
03
Monaco Cathedral
The neo-Romanesque cathedral where the Princes of Monaco are buried, Grace Kelly among them.
04
Oceanographic Museum of Monaco
A 1910 museum and aquarium built into the cliff face itself, with a shark lagoon below and a roof terrace looking straight out to sea.
05
Jardin Saint-Martin
Cliff gardens running along the seaward edge of the Rock beside the Oceanographic — shade, sea views and almost nobody in them.
06
Fort Antoine
An eighteenth-century fort at the far end of the Rock, now an open-air theatre.

culture history

Belle Époque Monte-Carlo

The quarter Charles Garnier built, and the reason Monaco looks the way it does.

01
Casino de Monte-Carlo
Garnier’s 1878 masterpiece, and worth seeing as architecture whether or not you gamble. The atrium can be visited in its own right.
02
Opéra de Monte-Carlo
The Salle Garnier, an opera house folded into the back of the Casino building — gilt, red velvet and a stage that opens towards the sea.
03
Grimaldi Forum
Monaco’s modern exhibition and concert venue on the Larvotto seafront, and the place its large summer exhibitions land.

03

culture history

Collections worth the detour

Three small museums that each do one thing unusually well.

01
Nouveau Musée National de Monaco
Modern and contemporary art across two Belle Époque villas — Villa Sauber near the sea, Villa Paloma above the exotic garden.
02
The Prince’s Car Collection
The reigning family’s historic cars, in Fontvieille. The obvious stop if the racing is what brought you.
03
Museum of Stamps & Coins
Monaco’s philatelic and numismatic collection — a genuinely odd hour, and a short one.

04

outdoors

Gardens and the green edge

A principality of two square kilometres with a surprising amount of planting in it, most of it on a slope.

01
Jardin Exotique de Monaco
Reopened in 2026 after an eighteen-million-euro restoration. Succulents on a cliff terrace, with the Mediterranean the whole way down.
02
Princess Grace Rose Garden
A tribute garden in Fontvieille, level, quiet, and the easiest walk in Monaco.
03
Japanese Garden
A Zen garden by the sea at Larvotto, built to a traditional plan and maintained to one.

water activities

The harbour and the waterfront

Port Hercule is the picture everyone has seen of Monaco — and for two weeks a year it is also part of the circuit.

01
Port Hercule & La Condamine
The working harbour and the quarter behind it, with the morning market on place d’Armes and the restaurants that actually feed Monaco.
02
Larvotto Beach promenade
The renovated beachfront on the eastern side, with a public lido and the flattest walking in the principality.
03
Saint-Martin / Monte-Carlo viewpoints
The panoramas over the harbour and the circuit. These are vantage points rather than one address, so they are named here and left off the map below.

Beyond the principality

Monaco is small. The half-days around it are not, and three of the best are inside twenty kilometres.

01
Èze Village
A medieval village on a crag above the sea, with an exotic garden at the top where the castle used to be.
02
Fragonard perfumery, Èze
The perfumery below the village, and the usual pairing with it — a straightforward half-day out of Monaco.
03
Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild
A rose-pink Belle Époque villa on the Cap Ferrat isthmus with nine themed gardens around it, sea on both sides.
04
Villa & Jardins Kérylos
A reconstructed ancient-Greek villa at Beaulieu-sur-Mer, built in 1902 by a scholar who meant it seriously.

A working guide, not a ranked list. Opening hours, prices and admission change often and are delegated to each venue’s own site; several of these places close on one day a week and some are seasonal. Confirm before you travel — and note that during race week the circuit itself cuts the city in two, so a walk that normally takes ten minutes may not be possible at all.
