The crossing

Marseille – Bejaia with Corsica Linea

Marseille – Bejaia is a seasonal Corsica Linea link, rarer than the Algiers route. It is useful for those who want to land directly in Kabylia, aboard a ship such as the Jean Nicoli or the Danielle Casanova, depending on the period.

On board, dining, shops and rest areas fill the day. Passengers travelling with a vehicle leave it in the garage for the whole crossing and take their luggage to the cabin.

As departures are few, it is worth comparing with the Sète – Bejaia link, often more frequent, or with Algérie Ferries sailings. The search engine shows the dates on which the crossing is available.

Departing from

Marseille

Marseille is the oldest city in France: Greek sailors from Phocaea founded Massalia here around 600 BC. The Old Port has kept the city turned towards the sea and the far shore of the Mediterranean ever since. The basilica of Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde, known to locals as the “Bonne Mère”, watches over the harbour from its hill, and the Mucem, which opened in 2013 at the mouth of the port, is devoted to Mediterranean civilisations. The Panier district, with its sloping lanes, and the nearby calanques make up a stay that many travellers extend by a day before boarding.

Arriving in

Bejaia

Bejaia appears at the back of a gulf closed off by Mount Gouraya, whose wooded slopes drop almost into the sea. Former capital of the Hammadids, the town was long a major port of the central Maghreb, and its French name, Bougie, is the origin of the word for a candle. From here you reach Kabylia, Tizi Ouzou and Sétif by mountain roads, and the Aiguades and Tichy beaches are a few kilometres from the port.
