Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Really worth the stop. A beautiful little port town with that relaxed, chill vibe of the south of France. Lots of restaurants along the port to just sit, have a nice apéro and enjoy.

We stayed at a hotel on the Harbour. A nice place for a stroll with plenty of restaurants. Also boat rentals and trips go from here.

In the morning the fisher men sell fish from the ships. Later on you can visit the cafes or take a boat trip for the port. The atmosphere is really Cosy.

We had been to Cassis about 15 years ago and have be dying to get back ever since. As part of our three week tour of the south of France, we decided to spend a morning back here and catch up....and everything was just as wonderful as I remembered it.

The port is busy, fun, charming, active and exciting. It's fun just walking about, looking that the boats, watching them come in and go out of the harbor. The sun is strong, so make sure to bring a hat as there is not a great deal of shade. There are a ton of quaint shops along the side streets and plenty of restaurants along the harbor itself.

Definitely a great time and a place I would want to go back to...and probably would want to spend a couple of days next time!!

Beyond taking the wonderful boat tour or doing a hike to a nearby calanque or two, here are our ideas of ways to enjoy Cassis:
• Walk to Plage du Bestouan (seven minutes west of the harbour) and take the stairs at the north end to a rocky area where you can sit and watch the entrance to the harbour. It was lovely at sunset (see photo). This rocky area is across from the lighthouse.
• Watch people playing pétanque in the evening in the square at the east end of the harbour.
• Have morning coffee at a café on the harbour. We really enjoyed watching the fishermen selling their catch just 3 meters in front of us.
• Get an ice-cream and sit by the small pebble beach or go for a swim.
• Enjoy a restaurant meal. The better restaurants tend to be tucked in the little streets just beyond the harbour. Our best meal was at D’une rive à l’autre, which specializes in Middle Eastern cuisine.

Very pretty, very clean town by the sea. There is a decent size car park (Les Mimosas) that provides you the perfect walk into town, depositing you at the harbour.
The port itself isn’t too big & in June it wasn’t too crowded, though I can imagine the busy months aren’t the perfect time to go.
There’s plenty of restaurants to choose from, plus a few options for shopping. Time it right to visit on market day, as it’s one of the nicest markets I’ve ever visited.

This is the epitome of the French seaside in the south. Gorgeous restaurants, lovely bay and a great bar scene. Just saunter down the promenade and enjoy the sights and smells.

Cassis should be on everyone's itinerary when visiting the Provence region. We started by viewing the city from the cliffs high above. Then came to town to walk the picturesque harbor and city streets. Gorgeous!
