Cassis is a Provençal port between cliffs and hills on the Mediterranean coast, east of Marseille. The village is known for its marina, colourful façades and beaches, while the peaks of Calanques National Park form the backdrop. You can alternate between swimming, strolling through the narrow streets and taking boat trips or walking the trails. The setting appeals both to travellers looking to enjoy the sea and to those keen to explore the area on foot.

The port and Château de Cassis offer a glimpse of the village and its history; the château overlooks the seafront. Grande Mer Beach is 2.3 km away, while Corton and Bestouan beaches offer other places to swim along the coast. Cassis train station is 400 m away according to local listings. Marseille-Provence Airport is listed as 33 km away. Calanques National Park offers coves, pine forests and coastal trails, with routes for different levels.

The summer months are ideal for swimming and boat trips, but the coast is busier then. Spring and early autumn are well suited to walks and hikes when temperatures are milder. You can start the day at the port, continue along a trail in the Calanques and finish at a beach. Before going hiking in summer, check access to the hills, which is sometimes restricted because of the risk of fire.
