best food was chez yassine and la mercerie. la friche is super cool too (converted ex-tobacco factory come gig space, canteen, skate spot)

good day trips = calanques, toulon, aix. the inner city beach (plage des catalans) is great but gets crowded. you can find nice little spots to sunbathe and swim all along the city coast

day trip to cassis worth a look too (lovely little beaches there and you can take a boat tour round les calanques)

plage du prado is ok too - very accessible by public transport but very exposed with minimal shade so be prepared to get gouged for a parasol

Thank you all for the recommends. Loved the cold water swims at the calanques after the bit of hiking in hot weather. Also saw my old yoga teacher who teaches there. Her studio is lovely.

https://limmatmarseille.com, was a great restaurant. She is an amazing cook.

Its an amazing place to walk around.

Just loved, loved the bakeries. We have it so much worse here. All the indie bakeries here now really suck.

Only negative was crossing the road. The motorists and motorbikes are a bit crazy idk.
