Marseille '10 -'11
Marseille is a city in the South of France, I lived there for a year so I have a lot to tell you about where to stay, sights, clubs, restaurants, bars and travel. Marseille and the South is home to the warmest weather in France. Temperatures are as high as 30 degrees in summer and as low was 15 degrees in winter, the heavy winds in winter make it seem colder. Marseille is a nice city, a bit dirty but there are nicer cities in the South including Cannes, Nice and Aix en Provence. Some of Marseille's best sites are Prado Beach, Calanques, Vieux Port, Palais de Longchamp, Chateau d'If and Notre Dame de le Garde. Sights Prado Beach is located approximately 20-30 minutes by bus from the Vieux Port, there are a few restaurants by the beach. Prado Beach isn't too sandy but more pebbly but there is another beach further down which is more sandy. Skateboarding, rollerskating and jogging is very popular among the beach. A replica statue of Michangelo's David is adjacent...
