Cassis was once a small fishing port, however today, this idyllically situated village is a close rival to Saint Tropez! Some fishing boats still work from the small port, but the main business on this part of the Mediterranean is boat tours of the Calanques. Calanques and small, picturesque limestone coves along the coastline between Cassis and Marseille - a boat trip to see them is highly recommended. You can choose from a tour of 3-9 calanques, ranging from 45-90 minutes duration. The prettiest are the three closest to Cassis. There are lots of nice shops, cafés and restaurants in the village and you can book 24 hours ahead (with several restaurants) if you'd like to try the famous fish dish called 'Bouillabaisse'. The port area is wonderful to walk around and explore, you can also swim adjacent to the port under the large hill which has an impressive chateau atop it - reputably owned by the Michelin family. A drive to the top of nearby Cap Canaille (the highest sea cliff in France) along the Route des Crete is not for the faint-hearted, but offers an amazing panoramic view of the impressive coast and Cassis below. It is amazing at sunset! Cassis is approximately 60 minutes drive from Jouques, which includes about €5 toll fees on the autoroute, each way.

Cassis is a little port village not far from Aix en Provence. (50 km) and you can sit on the sandy beach. I recommend to go there on weekdays, the weekend is very busy.
