More than 125,000 new cases of Covid-19 were recorded on Friday July 1 in France. An increase that can be observed in almost all European countries. The seaside resorts are preparing for the epidemic recovery.

The first tourists of July have arrived on the beach of Antibes (Alpes-Maritimes), happy to enjoy pleasant temperatures. But some vacationers have decided to leave before the rush of new arrivals. Like these tourists, frightened by the rise in Covid-19 contamination: “It was a problem for us in supermarkets, in stores, restaurants. It’s a fear”

In a campsite in Antibes, the Julyists are expected at the end of the afternoon, Saturday July 2, and the director checks the smallest details, always with the Covid in mind. “We simply did not remove the measures that had been taken in 2020”, says Claire Cohen, director of the Pylon campsite. A pharmacy in Montpellier (Hérault) notes that regulars and tourists are rather far-sighted. Screening tests are free for all those who have a complete vaccination schedule.
