Maritime shuttles in Marseille

Every year, from April to the end of September, you can take advantage of the maritime shuttle crossings. Whether they take you north or in the south, it is at the end of the world (from Marseille) that they will drop you off!

Towards the Goudes and the Pointe Rouge

The departure of the maritime shuttles takes place at the Old Port, from Monday to Sunday. The Goudes district is a small village located at the gateway to the Calanques. Very popular, it becomes impossible to get around in summer. The best way to get there is by boat.
To reach it, two boats are needed. The first one stops at the Port de la Pointe Rouge and the journey lasts about 30 minutes. The second boat leaves from the Port de la Pointe Rouge and arrives 20 minutes later at Les Goudes.
