Hello,
We are looking to go for a weekend by the sea - so I assume south France (Marseilles / Nice) is the closest coastal town from Geneva?
Can anyone advise us regarding the cheapest / easiest / fastest ways to get there?
Thanks!

Thanks! Is flying the quickest way then (even when you factor in the checking in, waiting etc)?

if you check in online, you can go directly to pass control with your printed boarding pass
if you need to check-in, it ends 40min before the flight if i'm not mistaken
i always come 1h beforehand and it's more than enought coz they always delay ;)

Marseilles is closer to Geneva. 4 hours by car. But I would prefer Nice in this case even if it will take 5 or 6 hours to get there. I prefer to drive at night or get there by EasyJet.

Personally I prefer the Var with its Calanques to The Côte d'Azur.
