Cassis

Cassis sits on France’s Mediterranean coast, between Cap Canaille and the limestone inlets of the Calanques. Its sheltered harbour faces a shoreline carved into narrow calanques, including Port-Miou, while vine-covered slopes behind town belong to the Cassis wine appellation. Established in 1936, this AOC is especially known for dry white wines, a local tradition alongside fishing and boating. Cap Canaille rises immediately east of Cassis, and paths from town lead towards Calanques National Park. The old centre gathers around the harbour, where cafés and small boats set the daily rhythm.
