Cassis

Cassis is a small fishing port 20 kilometres east of Marseille, at the edge of the Calanques National Park — a 20-kilometre stretch of limestone cliffs cut by deep narrow inlets that drop directly into the Mediterranean. The most famous calanques — En-Vau, Port-Pin, Sormiou, Morgiou — are reachable only by boat or long hike, with white pebble beaches at the head of each fjord-like cove. Above the town, the 200-metre Cap Canaille is one of the highest sea cliffs in France. Cassis is 90 minutes from La Ciotat and 2 hours from Marseille Old Port. Season runs April through October.

Recommended duration: ideal for 1 days
