This is where you have to dare. Ignore the direction Route des Crêtes and take the DFCI!

The crest road which connects the town of La Ciotat to that of Cassis, runs in laces on the edge of the cliffs of Soubeyran (394 m), which are the highest seaside cliffs in France. The view is spectacular both in terms of the landscapes seen at the top of these cliffs and the road itself which evolves in pretty landscapes presenting a remarkable geology. This road is closed on very strong mistral days. This powerful wind can indeed be very intense at this height.

Old Port of La Ciotat

Highlight • Structure

La Ciotat - not as much bustle as in Cassis, but at least as beautiful a harbor and small stretches of beach.
