Cassis is regarded by many as one of the most romantic places on earth. This small fishing village was made famous in the 19th century by the writer, Frédéric Mistral, and became the chosen summer resort for artists such as Derain, Vlaminck, Matisse and Dufy. Don’t miss the chance to explore the tiny streets filled with the aromas of Provence such as herbs, Cassis wines, seafood and warm sea breezes.
Enjoy a short guided stroll, before taking time out to browse the boutiques or relax in one of the many waterfront cafés.
