Cassis and the Callanques




We were really lucky with our timing to Cassis. Leaving the school bus stop around 8:35, in order to catch the 9:11 train to Marseille, we changed trains and arrived in Cassis a little before noon. The local bus was waiting outside the station, and a good thing, since the port and beach are a couple of miles away, down steep roads. Our four-hour visit was well worth the effort, though. Our first activity was to take the one-hour boat tour of 5 callanques, picnicking on the boat. The rest of our time was free for the beach, and we arrived back at school in plenty of time for the farewell party.
