Nightlife
Thanks to its history as a cultural melting pot, Marseilles pulsates at night, particularly its live music and night club scene. The best after dark hot spots in Marseille include the Vieux Port and Place Thiars, and the Escale Borély, a waterfront development south of the town centre (a 20-minute ride on the bus 83), right by the sea. For more exact listings read Sortir, the daily paper, or l'Officiel des Loisirs. Also worth checking out is le Cours Julien, a square lined with cafes and restaurants in the La Plaine area.

Shopping
There are several markets in Marseille. One not to miss is the fish market on the Quai des Belges, at the Vieux Porta, which becomes a real spectacle as local fishermen compete with one another to sell the catch of the day to passers-by.
