Cassis, located on the Mediterranean Sea, has an authentic french village feel with its local market set up bi weekly to browse provencal food or decor, fisherman in the early morning selling fresh catches, or friendly locals working in the cafes and restaurants along the port where you grab a pain au chocolat,verre du vin, biere or cafe creme.
This spacious, luxury apartment is in beautiful, unspoiled Cassis, France. The apartment is a short walk to the picturesque, small fishing port, the beach, downtown, and restaurants. The apartment is truly less than a 5 minute walk to the port, located just up from the beach, not at the top of the big hill leading to other residences. There is a terrace to enjoy coffee and croissants, as well as private parking.
Easy walk to the port for taking a ride to the Calanques by boat, having a drink at a cafe or eating in one of the many great restaurants in town. The beach is a short walk to either the big main port beach located next to the visitors center and lighthouse promenade or the smaller locals beach on the other side of the port.
