GETTING AWAY

For tourists and local residents alike, there's many an unsuspected pleasure to be found close by, from the sea to the summits of the Pre-Alps. Among bays, peninsulas and sun-drenched countryside, luxury hotels, beaches, golf courses and jaunts, we'll take you to some amazing places.

Archipel du Frioul

  • Chilling out Marseille style!
 
frioul
 

Frioul Islands lying two nautical miles from Marseille's old harbour, their rugged relief sculpted by an ever-present mistral and their arid landscape are well worth discovering. They are home to 200 species of plants and are visited by migrating birds including the gabian seagull. The fish farm raising bass and bream off Pomègues Island is recognised as the world's first organic one, thereby guaranteeing production of high-quality fish that you can enjoy in one of the little harbour eateries, for example L’Orange Bleue that serves it grilled or as bouillabaisse depending on the day's catch, or at the Marseille restaurant opposite on If Island. Escapism under Massilia's sun.
