Marseille beaches
France annually welcomes tens of thousands of tourists on its territory, and not all of them stay in Paris for a long time. Many people prefer to relax on the local coast and consider these beaches to be the best among European.
If you look at the coast of Marseille on the map, you will notice that it is a small crescent moon. This crescent contains many beautiful bays, bays and well-equipped beaches that delight even the most demanding holidaymakers from all over Europe..
On the southern coast, there are convenient small grottoes and bays with convenient access to water:
- Sormiou
- Sugiton
- Port pin
- l’anse des Phocéens
- Morgiou
- En-Vau
- Sablettes and many others.
For those who prefer tranquil coves to crowded beaches, it is important to remember that traveling with your own car in these areas may be a little difficult due to specific French laws. During the swimming season, the passage of vehicles on the territory of small bays is prohibited, so you will have to walk to the beach on foot or go there by local buses. The beaches of Marseille are located along the coast in such a way that the very path to them turns out to be a fascinating journey with the opportunity to admire the beauties of local nature.
