Above the Corniche Kennedy, parc Valmer offers a green retreat with views over the bay and the islands of Marseille. A winding path passes through Mediterranean planting and palm trees around the villa. The terrain and rock gardens give this seaside garden its character. Visits cover the park’s public areas; access inside the villa is not included.
