Is there anything to do in November in Nice? I have went to a couple of websites that stated most people the live there go on their own vacation at that time. Most shoppes and boutiques are also closed for the month of November. Is this true?
Also, how is the weather around November?

November is just a fine month in Nice. Bright sun, blue skies, still nice temperatures, stars in the sky at night. You may bring a sweater over the shoulders when going out for dinner at night.
With the exception of extreme high-season outlets, everythings open. Thats one of the advantages with Nice, being a major city in its own right, with or without the tourist inflow. You see people on the beach and some also in the water. Its worth mentioning that the original high season in the are was originally the winter. Queen Victoria wouldn´t have dreamt of visiting Nice in the SUMMER.

I would say that November is one of the least pleasant times of the year to be in Nice as many businesses are closed, including many of the cheaper restaurants in the the old town. There is quite a big difference between early and late November, with more likelihood of cold, wet weather later in the month. People who live in Nice can benefit from the sunny, pleasant weather that often occurs in winter. The problem with a short break at that time is that you could run into one of the very wet spells that are a feature of the Riviera winter.
I like Nice in October and in the Christmas/New Year period when it gets busy again.
