R2 Le Rooftop des Terrasses, Rooftop restaurant and terrace at Les Terrasses du Port, Marseille, France
R2 Le Rooftop des Terrasses is a nightclub with restaurant and lounge areas located on top of a shopping complex at the waterfront. The space features dining stations, drink counters, and dance areas, with open sides and windows showing views toward the Mediterranean and the harbor.
The venue grew from the waterfront shopping center and gradually expanded into a popular nightlife destination over time. Its development followed Marseille's broader pattern of converting rooftops into entertainment spaces.
The name references the terrace setting that defines the rooftop layout and shapes how visitors experience the sea view. This design reflects how locals appreciate open-air spaces combined with views of the coast.
Access is through the shopping center, and the terrace is visible from street level. Visitors should prepare for changing weather, though portions of the space have roofing for shelter.
A heated and covered section of the terrace allows guests to stay comfortable during poor weather and extends the usable season. This makes the place appealing throughout the year rather than just during warm months.
