Plage de la Pointe Rouge, Sandy beach in Marseille 8th district, France
The beach stretches along the Mediterranean coast with fine sand and offers views of the adjacent marina and small fishing boats.
The Pointe Rouge port and beach area developed in the early 20th century as Marseille expanded its maritime facilities for local fishermen.
Local residents gather at the beach restaurants and cafes, creating a meeting point where Mediterranean food and coastal traditions merge.
The beach includes first-aid facilities, lockers, restrooms for people with reduced mobility, and regular lifeguard supervision during summer months.
The beach serves as a departure point for maritime shuttles heading to Les Goudes, connecting visitors to other coastal destinations.
