LUXURY VACATION RENTALS IN Cassis, France

The French Riviera is well known for its opulence and slow, sultry pace. The village of Cassis meets all of these expectations but with small town charm. What was once a tiny fishing village east of Marseille is now a haven for those looking for a relaxing getaway full of sun, outdoor beauty, and great food.

Cassis Beach features the clean, clear waters you expect from the French Riviera. The sparkling water is framed by limestone cliffs jutting dramatically from of the sea and dotted with stunning inlets called calanques. Sunbathers can stay onshore or take tours of the calanques by boat. For a different perspective of the calanques, take a hike on one of the many trails with a picnic in tow and enjoy breathtaking views from atop the cliffs. Port-Miou is a quick walk from the center of Cassis and you could easily spend the rest of your day basking in the warm Riviera sun, but if adventure still calls to you, the further calanques, Port-Pin and Calanque d’En-vau, can fill the rest of your day.

After your day of soaking in the gorgeous sun and pristine waters of the Mediterranean, your appetite will be met with abundant offerings of fresh seafood from local restaurants. From traditional cafes that serve bouillabaisse with fresh bread and a glass of rose to more distinguished establishments, there is no question that seafood caught just off the coast is on the menu. If staying in sounds more appealing, visit the open air market at Place Baragnon. It’s perfect for perusing the bounty of the region which is evident in the olives, figs, seafood, and cheeses on display. Take a basket of these divine treasures home for a simple and delicious meal.
