Photo - "Cap de Cappaïa"! This area in Nice is sometimes linked to the story of hats blowing away due to strong winds. The name “Cap de Cappaïa” comes from the local dialect, referring to “cappa” (a hat), as it is said that the strong winds in the area often blew hats off people's heads. It’s a charming and lesser-known part of Nice, offering not just stunning coastal views but also a slice of the city's history wrapped in local legend.
