Marseille is France's oldest port (founded by the Phocaeans in 600 BC) and was European Capital of Culture in 2013. The Vieux Port with its fish stalls, MuCEM and the towering Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde above the city give Marseille its Mediterranean character.

Sète lies on France's Mediterranean coast in the Hérault department, between open sea and the Étang de Thau lagoon. The canal town is France's second-largest fishing port and the birthplace of Paul Valéry and Georges Brassens.

Collioure is a Catalan coastal town on the Mediterranean in French Roussillon, right at the foot of the Pyrenees. The colours of its light inspired Matisse and Derain in 1905 to launch the Fauvist movement, and the harbour is famous for its salt-cured anchovies, a tradition stretching back 600 years.
