At Marseille Secrète, we believe that the most important thing is to experience beautiful things together, so we’ve listed the best things to do to celebrate love with your lover!
A candlelight concert
It’s a well-known fact that music softens the soul. Thanks to its candlelit concerts, the Candlelight experience promises to be an emotional experience for both of you! Always in exceptional venues, vibrate to the sounds of music by the greatest classical and contemporary composers. Whether you’re into jazz, disco, film music, classical or pop, give your other half a ticket to the Candlelight concert of your choice and enjoy an evening of romance together.
Valentine’s Day can be fun too
You’re that couple who embodies complicity and you love to challenge them? Then look no further than Expedition Marseille, a highly entertaining experience you can enjoy together. In a setting worthy of a funfair, complete a number of challenges. A total of 20 booths will be on offer. Chamboule tout, Mastermind, Jungle, Crocodile or Cluedo… Enough to challenge you and spend an original Valentine’s Day.
Relax for two with a massage
Sometimes, the hustle and bustle of everyday life just makes you want to RELAX! And we understand! In the end, the best gift you can give your loved one is a moment of calm and serenity for two, and you’ll see, there’s nothing better for reconnecting! And let’s not forget that silence and calm prevent disagreements! So instead of a Netflix & Chill evening, let yourself be pampered by massage professionals! Discover our list of the best places to get a massage in Marseille!
Treat yourself to a romantic outdoor getaway
This year, 2025, February 14 falls on a Friday, so you can even organize a Valentine’s weekend! If you want to surprise and please, take your Valentine on a romantic getaway! And good news: there’s no need to go to the other side of the world, because there are some wonderful villages just outside Marseille! And believe us, they’ll blow your mind with their breathtaking sc enery!
A romantic dinner in one of Marseille’s finest restaurants
Valentine’s Day dinner for two is a must on February 14th! We look into each other’s eyes, we smile, we talk for hours – there’s no better way to reconnect! (For early relationships, we’d advise you to avoid anything garlic- or onion-based). If you’re looking for a breathtaking setting, we recommend a seaside restaurant like Tuba Club or Les Bords de Mer. Or, if you’re more interested in giving your guest a starry-eyed look, you can opt for a Michelin-starred restaurant like Saisons or Signature. One thing’s for sure, you’ve got plenty of choice! Marseille has a wealth of fine restaurants.
Offer your guest a made-to-measure perfume workshop
Your partner’s scent is bound to be one of the things that makes you fall in love with him or her! So if your loved one wears perfume, it’s certain that you’ve already turned around and smelled someone else wearing it near you! How about making your lover’s scent truly unique? How about sharing a moment of complicity around perfume? The Maison Laugier boutique offers workshops where you can create a perfume that’s just like you. Ultra-romantic for Valentine’s Day, isn’t it?
Organize a romantic picnic on Frioul Island
If you want to enjoy the blue horizon and a little peace and quiet in an idyllic setting, the Frioul islands are the place to be! Especially since, although they’re right in front of our eyes, we don’t go there every morning – and what a pity! Admire the deserted beaches and go exploring with the person who will enjoy this timeless moment with you. There are shuttle buses that take you there and back, so all you have to do is prepare a picnic that’s sure to impress (don’t forget the chocolates!).
Happy Valentine’s Day to all! 💕
