Set off at dawn on Saturday to ride under the sunrise over La Gineste. Once in Cassis, take the mythical Route des Crêtes overlooking the Bay of Cassis and Cap Canaille, before arriving in La Ciotat opposite the shipyards under the rising sun.
Stroll through this beautiful little port, stroll through its Provencal market before having a coffee.
What's next? You have the choice, either you go for a swim in one of its numerous creeks and inlets or you go for a walk in the land passing by the vineyards of Bandol...
Do both, take the time to fully enjoy, take two days.
