Cassis from Saint-Charles: skip the hilltop station
Cassis station is more than three kilometres from the harbour, at the top of the town, and the shuttle bus is infrequent. With luggage, a driver from Saint-Charles drops you as close as possible to your hotel, on the harbour or along the Route des Crêtes.
The driver takes the A50 towards Aubagne, then the Carnoux exit and the road down to Cassis, tolls included. In season the centre is closed to cars, so the drop-off is at the nearest permitted point.
Can we go as far as the Port-Miou peninsula?
Yes, to the peninsula car park. From there the path to the calanques is on foot.
For a day in the calanques, leave early: shuttles and boats to En-Vau and Port-Pin leave the harbour from the morning, and the road down to Cassis is saturated before noon in summer.
Cassis by road or by train
Cassis station is more than three kilometres from the harbour, at the top of the commune, and the shuttle bus to the centre does not always connect. With luggage, a private driver from Saint-Charles takes you straight to the harbour or your hotel in about forty minutes, via the A50 and the descent from Carnoux.
