Cassis Old Town is the heart of this picturesque fishing village, a maze of narrow pedestrian streets lined with pastel-colored houses, boutique shops, and cozy cafés. The main square, Place Baragnon, buzzes with activity under the shade of plane trees, while the nearby harbor is filled with fishing boats and yachts. Strolling through the old town, you'll discover hidden courtyards, a small 18th-century church, and local artisans selling pottery and lavender products. The atmosphere is relaxed and quintessentially Provençal, making it a perfect place to wander, enjoy a coffee, or sample fresh seafood.
