In reply to george327:
This is one of the best times of the year to climb in the Cote D'Azur. A lot of the tufa may be wet or will be wet soon, but there are a lot of crags that will be dry and are in the sun for all or some of the day. I've climbed there in Oct, Nov and Dec and had some awesome conditions. It can rain for a day or so at a time, but then is dry for a while.
From my experience, there aren't that many British climbers in the area, but there are a lot of very keen locals. Perhaps check out the climbing walls and try and meet some.
I may be out in early December for a week. If so I'll give you a shout.
