21st Congress of the World Society for Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery (WSSFN)

In late September, Marseille's Mediterranean warmth lingers, making it ideal to stroll the Vieux-Port and climb to Notre-Dame de la Garde for sweeping coastal views between sessions. The Palais du Pharo's seaside setting pairs perfectly with a bouillabaisse lunch at a nearby harbor restaurant, a taste of the city's maritime soul. As the summer crowds thin, you'll find the city's famed Calanques and its vibrant street markets more peacefully yours to explore.
