FRANCE - Provence
Cassis - Calanques
Cassis is a attractive town in Provence in southern France on the Mediterranean coast. Celebrated for its cliffs and calanques, it is also known for the Cassis wines (white, but also rosé) produced in the region. The little fishing port, tucked between two exceptional natural sites (the celebrated Calanques and the majestic Cap Canaille) offers a concentrated version of Provence and the Mediterranean. The "Calanques" are located between Cassis and Marseilles along the Mediterranean coast.
