Plages du Prado, Public beach complex in Marseille, France
The Prado beaches extend along 3.5 kilometers of Mediterranean coastline, featuring a series of connected sandy and pebbled areas for swimming and recreation.
The Prado beaches were created in the 1970s using earth from metro construction works, transforming an undeveloped coastline into 22 hectares of recreational space.
The Prado Beach Park draws over 3.5 million visitors annually, serving as a central gathering point for local residents and international visitors.
Multiple paid parking areas line the beach complex, while bus lines 19 and 83 provide direct access from central Marseille and the Old Port.
The beach complex includes a globally recognized skatepark where international extreme sports enthusiasts gather throughout the year.
