Baby friendly location near Marseille

Hi!

We’ve just booked Eurostar summer train tickets down to Marseille at the end of June. I was wondering if anyone could recommend any good locations within an hour - 90 mins drive of Marseille?

We chose the Eurostar summer train as we have a baby (who will be 9 months at the time of our trip) and the Paris Metro is not particularly buggy friendly for changing from Eurostar to SNCF and we wanted to chase the sun a little bit with the least travelling hassle.

Not fussed whether we’re near beach or countryside but would like to be based somewhere that is a good base for day trips, etc.

Have never been to the south of France before - we normally holiday in North West or in the Pyrennees-Atlantique region. The research I’ve done so far has not helped me narrow down any options!

Thank you!

My favourite place is the Frioul Archipelago. The ferry runs every 20 minutes from the old port and you can book an Airbnb on the island and stay there, I believe. There's only one shop and a few restaurants, but I think it's a great place to stay for a couple of nights.
