The Mediterranean, Cassis, La Ciotat, Sanary sur Mer…

La Provence, a day on the mediterranean coast… Cassis one of the most beautiful village on the Mediterranean Cost. Coiled in a natural setting which combines pine forests, ochre or white rocks, plain or terraced vineyards that stretch to the Mediterranean Sea. Cassis is protected by two monuments of nature which are Cape Canaille (highest maritime cliff of Europe) which glows when mistral winds blow and the Calanques made of white limestone.
