Marseille's Old Port sets the tone for this central neighbourhood: boats line the quays, while the surrounding streets connect the port to the Canebière and the city's central squares. The atmosphere blends maritime life, heritage and urban bustle. You can start the day on the waterfront, then explore several of the city's landmarks on foot without having to plan every journey around a car.

The Ombrière du Vieux-Port is a landmark on the quays, and the Marseille History Museum traces the city's past, from its Greek origins to modern transformations. The Jardin des Vestiges displays archaeological remains amid the city. Further along the waterfront, Fort Saint-Jean and the Mucem bring together architecture, exhibitions and views of the port. Vieux-Port metro station is 100 m away, while Saint-Charles railway station is 1.1 km away. Catalans Beach, 1.6 km away, offers access to the urban coastline.

Marseille is worth visiting all year round. Spring and autumn are pleasant for exploring the streets and quays on foot; summer brings hot days and larger crowds along the seafront. For a varied day out, you can spend the morning at the Old Port and the museum, then head to the waterfront and Fort Saint-Jean. Boat trips to the islands and the calanques let you discover the Mediterranean landscape from the water; departures and conditions vary by season. In the city, the metro and buses make longer journeys easier.
