Toulon

The city of Toulon is strongly marked by its connection to the sea, and it has earned its place as a fantastic maritime transport destination. It lies in the heart of a superb natural bay known as the “Rade of Toulon,” and it’s surrounded by wooden hills and mountains topped by fortifications. Toulon is a major military harbor enhanced by 2000 years of naval history, but the bay doesn’t restrict itself to the Arsenal.

Airport

Nice-Côte d’Azur international airport is 6 km (3.5 mi) west of Nice.
Over 40 national and international airlines fly in and out of Nice, and services to Paris are very frequent. Several bus companies link Nice with French and international destinations. If you’d rather travel by rail, there are fast trains running all along the coast and an infrequent TGV (high-speed train) to Paris – you may find it quicker to catch a train to Marseille and change there.
Regular ferries sail from Nice to Corsica.
