Passenger Terminals and Experiences

Considered nowadays as a preferred stopover, off the beaten track and away from the hordes of tourists, the Harbours of Toulon and their Terminals at Toulon and La Seyne-sur-Mer are popular among Premium and Luxury passengers, while having the capacity to accommodate and handle vessels which are among the largest currently deployed in the Mediterranean.

A stopover right in the middle of the city ! 

The TPM Metropolitan Authority, with the support of the Southern Region, French Government and Europe, is improving air quality by installing in the Toulon Côte d’Azur Passenger Terminal infrastructures supporting Onshore Power Supply (OPS), allowing the ship’s engines to be shut down during stopovers. Thanks to an innovative energy mix combining the electricity and photovoltaic grid, the aim of these installations is to cut quay emissions by 80%.

Our teams are always ready to share their passion for this destination. They are multilingual and are available all day to provide customers with assistance and information.

A Cruise Friendly© destination - What else ?

As part of continuing to offer a warm welcome within the Terminal, since 2013, Toulon has pioneered the use of the Cruise Friendly scheme, which has now been copied in numerous cruise destinations around the world.

Haven’t you heard about the Cruise Friendly scheme before?

This is a quality welcome charter aimed at local partners and service providers. Whether they are restaurateurs, shopkeepers, leisure, cultural or transport providers, by joining the scheme, all of them, when they come into contact with cruise visitors, undertake to offer our day visitors an unforgettable welcome.

The members of the scheme undertake in particular to be open on stopover days, to use foreign languages (at least the most common expressions) and provide a discount specifically for cruise customers.

In addition, with a view to ensuring maximum convenience for cruise visitors, services are also offered within the terminals at Toulon and La Seyne-sur-Mer.
