You are a 25-minute walk from Plage des Prophètes. The journey is magnificent, passing through the small streets of Roucas Blanc. In summer, we recommend going in the morning before 11 AM. The weather is still pleasant, and only a few regulars are there. Before heading back, don’t forget to sit on a terrace, enjoy a drink, and take in the beautiful view.

For more nature, nothing beats the Calanques. They are especially pleasant in the evening when the rocks are still warm and the sea is delightful. Don’t forget a chilled glass of rosé...

Little known to the general public, the Blue Coast is the coastal area of the Rove and Ensuès-la-Redonne. We recommend the squid at La Pergola restaurant—a true paradise. For the more adventurous (not recommended for children), you can swim and sunbathe in peace, surrounded by the sound of cicadas.

Marseille has 26 museums, some of which are worth visiting. Here are a few that we find interesting: Mucem, [MAC], Frac, La Vieille Charité, Château Borély, Musée Cantini...

• The Frioul Islands
• Notre-Dame de la Garde, the best view of Marseille
• The Docks district, featuring renovated waterfront spaces (Les Voûtes) with decor and food stores
• Noailles district, Marseille’s kasbah, with its spices and lively atmosphere. Stop by L’Idéal grocery-canteen for one of the best tapenades in the city.
• Le Panier district, known for its vintage shops and decor—perfect for finding coral jewelry.
• Cours Julien, ranked the 10th coolest neighborhood in the world by Time Out magazine.
• The southern districts, facing the Marseille bay—from the chic Roucas Blanc hill to the Goudes port, from Prado market to Pointe Rouge beaches, the city shines brightly.
