Cassis is a Provençal port on the Mediterranean coast, between Marseille and La Ciotat. The village centres on the port, lined with light-coloured façades, boats and terraces. The narrow streets of the centre climb from the quay towards the hills, while beaches dot the coastline. This stop suits travellers drawn to the sea, strolls through a coastal town and excursions into the surrounding limestone landscapes.

La Grande Mer Beach, 160 m away, is near the port and lets you swim without leaving the centre. Château de Cassis overlooks the rooftops and harbour from its promontory. Calanques National Park has coastal trails and coves with clear water; Calanque de Port-Miou is accessible on foot from the village. Cassis train station is 2.5 km from the centre. To visit the more distant calanques, plan to walk or use suitable transport. Marseille Provence Airport is 46 km away.

In fine weather, plan an early trip to the calanques, before the hottest part of the day, then spend the afternoon at the port or swimming. In summer, visitor numbers rise and the sun is strong on exposed trails; suitable footwear, water and sun protection are useful. Spring and early autumn are also good times for walks, with milder temperatures. You can spend a day exploring the village, walking along the coast and taking a break by the water.
