Cruises from and to Marseille (Provence), France

Marseille is where Provence comes crashing into the sea: bustling city and beautiful coastline, Belle Époque facades and bold street art, Provençal and multicultural traditions. France’s oldest city is also its most original, appealing to both first-time and seasoned visitors, as you’ll discover on a Marseille cruise.

Snap photos of wooden boats lining Le Vieux-Port harbour and hop between cafes, restaurants and bars – grab an outside table to watch the world go by and appreciate the gentle hubbub. Marvel at limestone fjords in Calanques National Park, home to Château d’If.  This 16th-century island prison was made famous in The Count of Monte Cristo, and sits one of the Frioul Islands, an archipelago offering coastal walks and quiet beaches. Soak up views from Basilique Notre-Dame de la Garde, before getting lost in Le Panier’s cobblestone streets.

Charming Aix-en-Provence and Avignon are nearby on cruises to Marseille. These picturesque locations are the perfect pairing to Marseille’s cosmopolitan flair. On a Marseille cruise, discover the best of Provence, France and the Mediterranean all at once.
