Marseille is a seaside town, but many of its central beaches leave
something to be desired. Changes in currents and wind directions can
draw polluted water into the city’s sandy stretches, making for an
unpleasant swimming experience. That said, the seaside scene at
out-of-the-way beaches is very attractive. Plage de la Pointe Rouge (Red
Point Beach) features a collection of basic seafood shacks and a
seaside swimming pool, while Les Goudes, a somewhat isolated fishing
village in metro Marseille, boasts a no-frills beach that is decidedly
non-touristy and reasonably clean.
