Martigues

According to Alexandre Dumas, Martigues is a city built not by the sea but in the sea. In the footsteps of the famous writer, I discovered Martigues. A city labeled 'Classified Tourist Station' and 'City of Art and History'. Located near Marseille, on the blue coast which runs along the Mediterranean coast, Martigues has the particularity of having several hiking trails. Some examples of sites and heritage to discover: La Chapelle Saint Pierre and its archaeological site dating from the Gaulish era. The small museum of Caro with its collections of old photographs, its fishing objects and its documentation on the history of the village. The port of Tamaris, where diving and water sports are practiced, is juxtaposed to an archaeological site dating from the 6th century BC.
