Presentation
Follow Caroline through the winding streets of the L'Île district and immerse yourself in the sunny soul of Martigues. As you stroll along the cobbled streets, you'll be enchanted by the charm of the pastel-coloured facades reflected in the peaceful waters of the canals.
Round off your trip with a tasting of local specialities to delight your taste buds!
Young and old alike will love the friendly atmosphere of this walk:
- Relive the magic of the cinema with the emblematic statues of Fernandel and Bourvil, perfect for a souvenir photo.
- Marvel at the vibrant colours of Place Mirabeau, bathed in the golden light of the South.
- Stroll along the picturesque Miroir aux oiseaux, a tourist mecca full of charm: the flamboyant paintings on the boats were said to have come from the leftover paint on the façades of the fishermen's houses.
- Marvel at the majesty of the church of Sainte Marie-Madeleine.
- Travel back in time in front of the archaeological showcase revealing the remains of the Gallic village.
- Treat yourself to a moment of suspension at Pointe San Crist, where the lapping of the water and the sea breeze invite you to contemplate.
- To finish on a high note, let yourself be tempted by a tasting of local specialities at the Tourist Office. So many flavours to prolong the memory of this escapade.
