BEACHES AND CREEKS
Read moreFour beautiful beaches are accessible on foot from the centre of the village: Arène beach, Corton beach, Grand Mer beach on pier, and finally the smallest, a little way away, the Bestouan beach. The calanques massif is famous all over the world. Classified, its vulnerability imposes a strict regulations that often prohibit access in summer except on foot or by boat. The easiest way to visit, summer and winter, the main ones among them - the most beautiful is En-Vau - is to go aboard one of the boats for a guided tour: tickets to be taken at the small yellow kiosk on the boules game place on the port. Information: Les Bateliers de Cassis at 04 42 01 90 83. One of the jewels between Marseille and Cassis is undoubtedly the Cosquer cave. Located in cap Morgiou, this site is unique in the world. Therefore, this underwater cave houses dozens of works painted and engraved about 27 000 and 19 000 years ago. Discovered in 1985 by a cassidian diver, it took years to mention the colourful paintings covering its walls: horses, seabirds, deer, wild cats, bison have remained in an exceptional state. Protected and for security reasons, it can't be visited. You can console yourself by buying books and photos in the village shops, or by taking a virtual tour on the website www.culture.gouv.fr

It is adjoining the gastronomic restaurant La Presqu'île, as well as a more affordable restaurant for tighter budgets. The view is wonderful from the terraces. Solarium, mattress and swimming pool for children are reserved for guests. For those who love swimming in the sea, it is possible, but access to the water is difficult. Here, no sand beach but large flat rocks on which it is possible to lie down. Those who are more daring can jump into the water from different rocks. The ascent is adventuresome, which is why it is essential to have bathing shoes.
