    The new Cap Couronne lighthouse is located south of the small village of La Couronne on the Côte bleue.
    He tags the entrance to the Gulf of Fos-sur-Mer from the direction of Marseille.
    In 1960, ignition of a red flash fire, on a cylindrical tower of reinforced concrete on a basement of 33 m height. It is a slightly frustoconical tower made of reinforced concrete painted white with the red top. Automated since 2001, the lighthouse can not be visited.

    Hiking

    Well, otherwise there's not that much to see here in town. But once you're there it's a nice destination for a walk.

    Exceptional website! You have to take the time to walk on the rocks around the lighthouse to enjoy this very beautiful coast! Parking is available but it is of course more beautiful if you get there by hiking!
