  1. Day 1

    Barcelona, Spain

    Barcelona is a Mediterranean port city built on Roman foundations, with Gothic lanes and striking modernist architecture. La Rambla runs from Plaça de Catalunya towards the waterfront and the old town. Gaudí’s Sagrada Família and Park Güell show the city at its most distinctive. Set aside time for a market lunch and a walk through El Born, where medieval streets meet lively cafés. Barcelona’s beaches offer a welcome pause between visits.

  2. Day 2

    Port-Vendres, France

    Port-Vendres is a working harbour on France’s Côte Vermeille, where the Pyrenees meet the Mediterranean. Fishing boats and cargo vessels share its deep-water port, giving the town a distinctly maritime character. Nearby Collioure offers galleries and a colourful waterfront, just a short drive away. Back in Port-Vendres, look for local anchovies and wines from the surrounding hills.

  3. Day 3

    Sete, France

    Sète is France’s working Mediterranean port, set between the sea and the vast Étang de Thau. Canals cross the centre, alongside fishing boats, cafés and a covered market. Ride or walk up Mont Saint-Clair for broad views across the harbour, lagoons and coast. Sample oysters from nearby Bouzigues or choose the day’s catch at a port-side restaurant. Museums honour poet Paul Valéry and singer Georges Brassens, both born here, adding cultural depth to this lively port.

  4. Day 4

    La Ciotat, France

    La Ciotat rewards visitors who look beyond the beach. This working Mediterranean port, between Marseille and Toulon, pairs a handsome old harbour with a dramatic coastline. Walk the waterfront past historic shipyards, then head for the ochre cliffs of Bec de l’Aigle. Nearby, Figuerolles offers a sheltered cove beneath sculpted rock. In 1895, the Lumière brothers filmed a train arriving at La Ciotat station. Allow time to linger over lunch beside the water.

  5. Day 4

    Sanary-sur-Mer, France

    Sanary-sur-Mer pairs a working Provençal harbor with an easygoing seaside rhythm, just west of Toulon. Colorful pointus—traditional fishing boats—line the quay, where the daily fish market brings the morning catch ashore. On Wednesdays, stalls spread through the town with produce, olives, textiles, and regional specialties. Climb to Notre-Dame-de-Pitié chapel for views over the bay and rooftops. The town also sheltered German-speaking writers in exile during the 1930s, including Thomas Mann and Bertolt Brecht.

  6. Day 6

    Saint-Tropez, France

    Saint-Tropez is more than a name on a yacht’s bow. Its Vieux Port remains active with fishing boats and pleasure craft. Ochre façades and narrow lanes lead into the old town. Climb to the 17th-century citadel for sea views and the Maritime History Museum. At Place des Lices, cafés and plane trees frame local life. Pampelonne’s celebrated beaches lie a short drive away.

  7. Day 7

    Cannes, France

    Arrive in Cannes and the Riviera’s polished glamour is immediately on show. Follow the palm-lined Croisette past Belle Époque hotels, designer boutiques and the Palais des Festivals, home of the film festival. Then climb into Le Suquet, the old quarter, for narrow lanes and views across the harbour. At Marché Forville, local produce and Provençal specialities offer a taste of everyday life. Ferries to the Lérins Islands make an easy escape to pine-scented shores.

  8. Day 8

    Villefranche-sur-Mer, France

    Villefranche-sur-Mer makes an unusually graceful first impression: pastel houses rise above one of the Riviera’s deepest natural harbors. Wander the old town’s narrow lanes, then visit the 16th-century citadel and its museums. Jean Cocteau’s painted Chapel of Saint-Pierre adds a distinctive local detail. Nearby trains connect you with Nice; roads lead to Èze and the wider Côte d’Azur.
