When to take the ferry to Marseille?
If you're looking for sunny beaches and blue skies, the summer months (July and August) are ideal for visiting the Mediterranean coast and enjoying high temperatures ranging from 25 to 35 degrees Celsius. However, this time of year is also the busiest for tourists, which can mean that the most popular seaside resorts and tourist attractions are very crowded.
If you prefer to avoid the crowds and scorching temperatures, spring (April and May) and autumn (September and October) are ideal times to visit France. Temperatures are mild and pleasant, fluctuating between 15 and 25 degrees Celsius, and the weather is generally sunny with a few showers possible. It's also an ideal time to explore the wine regions, the châteaux of the Loire or enjoy the local festivals.
