About Marché Forville
The Marché Forville is Cannes' covered market, a stone's throw from the Vieux Port and at the foot of the Suquet. Under the concrete structure, about fifty stalls sell fruit and vegetables from local producers, cheeses, olives, fish and seafood, flowers and Provençal specialties.
City restaurants source their produce there early in the morning, and the bustle of customers and traders gives a sense of everyday Cannes away from the Croisette. Marché, in French, means market or fair. Around it, rue Meynadier and the streets of the Suquet complete the shopping stroll.
The best time is in the morning, when the stalls are fully stocked; by the afternoon many have already closed. Check opening days before you go. From the market exit, the Vieux Port, where boats depart for the Îles de Lérins, and the path up to the Suquet are a few minutes' walk away.
