Cassis is a typical old Mediterranean fishing port, just a few kilometres from Marseille. The village is known for its stony beaches and more particularly, its 'calanques'. The calanques are creeks surrounded by high cliffs and are blessed with extraordinarily azure blue and emerald waters. Most of the calanques are not accessible by land so the best way to see them is by boat from the port.
Cassis is a very popular tourist spot for anyone who wants to sample the southern French Mediterranean lifestyle.
There are many vineyards in the area specialising in the renowned vin blanc de Cassis.
There are great walks along the Cap Canaille with stunning sea views along the whole length of the walk.
