With 300 days of sunshine a year, Marseille is an ideal destination to enjoy the Mediterranean Sea and the sun. The city has 21 beaches, including 6 private ones, ranging from small white sandy beaches to the large, well-equipped beaches of the Prado, as well as small, more intimate coves closer to the Calanques National Park. You can also admire the big blue by taking the Corniche Kennedy, a road which overhangs the sea and thus discover the longest bank of the world which extends on 3 km! The Corniche also has a beautiful cycle path from the city centre to the Prado beaches.
