Visits and activities in August

Refresh your summer! We have planned everything to take advantage of the hot days in August. Dive into the heart of the Côte Bleue Marine Park and practice snorkeling with mask and tuba. Unless you prefer to jump off the pontoon of a sailboat during a lazy day on board? Along the creeks of the Côte Bleue, opt for boat trips and enjoy the sea air.

Lovers of boat trips will not be left out since we also invite you to discover the city of Martigues from its most unusual angle: the canals. The Etang de Berre, the largest saltwater pond in Europe, also opens its arms to you during an unusual walk from Martigues to Saint-Chamas, along the hills and lagoons that border the pond. .

Are you eager for anecdotes and little stories? Take part in our cinema-themed city tour. Film shoots in the heart of Martigues will no longer hold any secrets for you! The opportunity also to discover the sets of the TV series "Camping Paradis" shot in Martigues.
