Old Port has been the beating heart and harbor of the city since ancient times. Today, it’s used as a marina and hosts a local fish market. Old Port is largely pedestrianized and lies at the end of the Canebière, the city’s main thoroughfare. On the south side of Old Port is St. Victor’s Abbey, one of the oldest sites of Christian worship in France. © Sergiyn | Dreamstime.com
Just off the coast of Marseille is Château d’If, a 16th-century fortress built under King Francis I. The fortress later became a prison in the 19th century. In fact, the island was the setting of Alexandre Dumas’ The Count of Monte Cristo, where Edmond Dantès was imprisoned. Today, the site is open to the public. © Olgacov | Dreamstime.com
Spanning from Marseille to Cassis, Massif des Calanques is a national park featuring steep cliffs, rocky outcrops and ocean views. The highest point in the park, Mont Puget, is well worth a hike to take in panoramic views of the region. © Sam74100 | Dreamstime.com
Art and entertainment are a dime a dozen in Marseille. Street art and performances are especially popular, including Cours Julien, where murals and bohemian art pieces prevail. At Le Panier, you’ll uncover intricate stencil art and small-scale murals. Performances abound around Cours Julien, Old Port and La Plaine. © Irene Lankin Duffy | Dreamstime.com
