Free WiFi vs Pocket WiFi in Paris
cacaou is for finding free public WiFi hotspots near you in Paris. It is not a pocket WiFi rental or SIM/eSIM shop. Use public WiFi when you need a short connection for maps, translation, messages, museum tickets or transit checks. If you need stable all-day internet for video calls, uploads or remote work, a mobile plan, eSIM or rented pocket WiFi is usually safer.
Common places to check for Paris public WiFi
Hotspot density is often better near train stations such as Gare du Nord, Gare de Lyon and Saint-Lazare, around tourist areas like the Louvre, Eiffel Tower and Notre-Dame, and inside or near cafes, libraries, shopping streets, parks and other public spaces. Open cacaou when you arrive nearby so the map can show practical options around your current location.
