La Ciotat is a port town on the Mediterranean coast, between Marseille and Cassis. Its seafront combines beaches, a marina and neighbourhoods where people live all year round; the landscape quickly rises towards the hills and limestone peaks of the Calanques. The town suits travellers looking to alternate swimming and coastal walks with trips to nearby villages, while still having the services of an urban centre in Provence.

Cyrnos and de la Lumière beaches offer places to swim along the bay. Calanques National Park, with its coastal scenery and trails attracting hikers and nature lovers, begins in the area around the town. Cassis, 5 km away, has a harbour lined with colourful façades and provides access to the Calanques of Port-Miou, Port-Pin and En-Vau. The Palais Lumière recalls La Ciotat’s connection with the early days of cinema. La Ciotat railway station is 2.9 km away; a car makes it easier to travel between the beaches, hills and neighbouring towns.

The Mediterranean climate makes it possible to enjoy the seaside from spring through to autumn. In summer, the beaches are very busy, and the heat makes morning outings more pleasant. You can start the day with a walk around the harbour, go for a swim and then finish by the seafront. In spring or September, the trails and visits to Cassis can be enjoyed in milder weather. If you’re heading out to the Calanques, bring good walking shoes and water, especially on hot days.
