La Joliette is part of the large port and urban area of Euroméditerranée, north of the Vieux-Port. The district brings together offices, cultural facilities, renovated buildings and roads connected with maritime activity. It has the feel of a Marseille in transition, with the port still part of the landscape and historic districts accessible on foot or by public transport. It is a convenient base for visiting the centre and reaching the ferry terminals.

Joliette metro station is 150 m away and connects the district with other parts of Marseille. MuCEM, a museum dedicated to the civilisations of Europe and the Mediterranean, is 800 m away; its exhibitions and spaces overlooking the port are worth several hours of your time. La Vieille Charité, in Le Panier, houses museums and exhibitions in a historic architectural complex among the district’s narrow streets. The Vieux-Port is 800 m away, with its quays, boats and departures to the islands. Saint-Charles station is 1.2 km away, and Marseille-Provence Airport is 17 km away.

For your first day, you can walk through the streets of Le Panier, visit La Vieille Charité and then continue to MuCEM and Fort Saint-Jean, which marks the entrance to the port. Boat trips to the islands and Château d’If offer another way to explore the harbour, depending on available departures. The beaches are further away, along the southern coastline; you can combine a day of swimming with a seaside walk. Marseille is worth visiting all year round: the bright spring and autumn days are pleasant for walking, while summer offers more opportunities to enjoy the coast, although it is busier.
