Presentation

Martigues is beautiful at night... our urban walk takes you to discover the illuminations of the town centre and from the chapel
Notre-Dame-des-Marins chapel on the heights to discover an exceptional panorama.
The associations Randonnée et Ski de Découverte (RSD) and Sport - Loisir - Nature (SLN) invite you to the party!

The fairytale atmosphere of the end of the year settles over the Venice of Provence.
When the town is highlighted by the magic of the Christmas lights, there's definitely something to marvel at. An unforgettable night-time experience!
