Sunny Marseille, located on the southern coast of France, ready to offer tourists not only fine wines and historical attractions, but also some of the best beaches in the city. Choose the most suitable place for you to stay from our review rating.
This is a meeting place for rich and famous, athletes and world stars. There are several gems off the coast of Marseille, which are "strewed" in white yachts and luxury resorts, but Escale Borely is unique in its kind. This beach differs from its pompous neighbours in a more freedom-loving atmosphere and offers a rich choice of water and beach activities. Nearby is Boreli Park, which creates masterpieces of scenery and fragrant air in the area.
Located in the heart of Escal Borely, which offers many beaches, restaurants and tourist attractions. A heavenly place for a measured summer life with its large cool terraces and famous Ferris wheel. During the day there are all conditions for comfortable swimming and rest with children, as well as high-quality shopping and gastronomic tours. In the evening Bonneveine daily offers a rich program of evening entertainment.
Beach with a convenient location, which is close to the centre of Marseille. From here you can walk to it with a fresh coffee croissant at the bakery along the way to start your day with breakfast on the Côte d'Azur. To be honest, this is not the cleanest and far from the most beautiful beach in Marseille, but it is the closest section for those who want to swim without leaving the city or using transport.
Pointe Rouge is the largest beach in eastern Marseille. There is no palm tree so you can hide in the shade, but there is a wide range of bars where you can enjoy a mojito while dipping your feet right in the sea. The local flavour is complemented by old fishing huts, which now belong to private owners, but continue to create a picturesque background for photos.
One of the oldest beaches in town. It is characterized by a small depth, which is observed for a long time from the shore. Every native Marseilles learned to swim here! That's why they call it a children's beach. It is located in Corniche, between Vieux Port (old harbour) and the beaches of Gaston-Deffer. Is it worth adding that the sea landscapes here, like everywhere else on the Côte d'Azur, are breathtaking?
Calanques de Cassis (Les Calanques de Cassis) is one of the most beautiful beaches in Provence. Beach is surrounded by majestic mountains, dense forests and picturesque buildings. Also adjacent to the beach is a major dock with luxury yachts, located in a rocky bay. Already beautiful picture is complemented by a bright blue sea, clean beach, steep terrain.
Riou (L’Ille de Riou) is located on a deserted island covered with snow-white rocks. Riou is famous for clean air, warm and bright blue water and quiet atmosphere. Its shores offer beautiful views of the sea coast, mountains of Provence and tourist ships. People come to the beach to go diving, to breathe clean air, to retire with nature. Tourists arrange picnics, conquer the mountains, dive with a mask, take pictures of flora and fauna. Island is also very popular among nudists.
