A canal-laced fishing and ferry port on France's Mediterranean coast in the Occitanie region, set below Mont Saint-Clair. Its quays of seafood restaurants and the nearby Thau lagoon's oyster beds give it a working maritime character, with Montpellier a short drive inland.

France's oldest city and biggest Mediterranean port, set around the old harbour of the Vieux-Port. The hilltop basilica of Notre-Dame de la Garde watches over the bay, with the Calanques inlets and bouillabaisse stalls a short way off.

Genoa
Arrive 07:00
Italy's great maritime city, stacked up the Ligurian hills above one of the Mediterranean's busiest harbours. Its old town is a maze of tall, narrow caruggi, and it claims pesto and focaccia as local inventions; the Aquarium and Renaissance palaces of Via Garibaldi sit close to the port.
