Can You Visit Antibes with a Dog Without a Car?
Yes, by train
Antibes is genuinely doable by train with a big dog and no car — but the station is 1.2 km from the place centre, and the regional bus is not an option for a 30 kg dog.

The dog rules that apply here
Checked against the held operator evidence. Each rule keeps its source and review date so you can verify it before travel.
SNCF trains · TGV INOUI, OUIGO, Intercités & TER
Dogs of all sizes allowedFor a 30 kg dog: a short leash and muzzle are required, the dog travels at your feet, and a pet ticket is needed. Large dogs travel leashed and muzzled at the passenger's feet with a pet ticket; exact fares and night-train/TER conditions vary by product and region.
Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur (ZOU!)
Dogs are not allowedNo animals on ZOU! buses except assistance dogs and small animals in closed containers. Trains (TER ZOU) follow SNCF rules — big dogs OK.
Think twice about high summer. The held climate classification is “Mediterranean, hot dry summer”. Heat, exposed station access and seasonal local restrictions can turn an otherwise workable coastal trip into the wrong choice for a dog; May–June and September–October are the kinder planning window.
