Port Bouches-Du-Rhône

La Ciotat is the beginning of the Riviera after Marseille, the place where you finally feel like you're on the French Riviera. It looks like Cannes with its palm trees and seaside restaurants but much simpler. La Ciotat has 4 harbours that can accommodate more than 1,500 boats: theMarina, the Port des Capucins, the Port Saint-Jean, and finally the Port Vieux.Old but new at the same time, since it has just undergone a major rehabilitation project. 10 months of work and a result that has lived up to the expectations of the Ciotadens for many years.

It has enclosed and secure cruise terminals and is very easy to access, as it is served by numerous means of public transport via the Joliette, metro or tranway. Numerous cruises also stop here since the city's tourist boom in 2013.
