Marseille Escorts and Sex Guide

Once a bustling hive of activity for sex including several strip clubs, massage parlours and sex salons, Marseille’s adult industry is in decline. Whether a result of the change in prostitution laws in 2016 or simply a case of reduced demand and a shift of focus to internet advertising, there are only a handful of places to get your rocks off on this port city.

Located on the southern coast of France, Marseille has a reputation for being a party town and has always had an active night life.

In this guide, we take a look at the options available for adult entertainment in Marseille including libertine clubs, strip joints and the prevailing laws.



Marseille Escorts Guide

The laws on prostitution in France changed in April 2016 making it illegal to buy the services of a sex worker but not for these same services to be made available. Whilst street prostitution is still rife, fines of up to €1500 are charged for anyone procuring sex.

Escort services, as ever, get around this technicality in law by offering ‘companion’ services and you can find plenty of escorts advertising online.

Due to the strict advertising laws in place, we cannot link to any Marseille escorts, agencies or related services.

Street Prostitutes

As a port city with a lot of immigration, Marseille has always had a reputation for prostitution and, though there is no official red-light district, there are areas where street prostitutes are known to operate.

Customers can expect to pay around €50 for full sex but don’t expect more than about 15 minutes of their time. Extras can be negotiated including BJ, anal and ‘natural’ services.

Do bear in mind that the law prohibits the purchase of sex.
