MARITIME SHUTTLES : PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Maritime shuttles or boat buses in Marseille are very popular during the summer season! This is not surprising since they connect the Old Port to Pointe Rouge and l’Estaque, as well as offering a crossing from Pointe Rouge to Les Goudes and vice versa.
Please note that depending on the weather (storms, strong mistral wind…), the shuttles may be cancelled. The maritime shuttle service is highly sought after, so we advise you to arrive early for your boarding time to ensure you can get on board (there is a maximum number of passengers allowed on board).
