Experience the Calanques National Park that stretches from Marseille to Cassis to admire some of the most beautiful coves part of the steep rocky coast. The result is a breathtaking landscape that mixes turquoise waters with impressive limestone cliffs and inlets.

It will also be time for you to taste some of the local delicacies in one of the many restaurants or bistros of the village. Ask your guide for recommendations as there are a number of restaurants that serve fine meals.

The Cassis Vineyard was among the very first Appellations d’Origine Contrôlée in 1936 (with Sauternes and Châteauneuf-du-Pape). It is planted – and this is noteworthy – exclusively in the district of Cassis, sheltered by famous Cap Canaille, the tallest coastal cliff in France, plunging down from a height of 400 metres into the Mediterranean sea. After a short drive, arrive at a carefully selected winery. Upon arrival, taste local wines and find out about the winery and the wine making process of this very popula
