Naval Museum
Housed in an imperial arsenal building for heightened maritime effect, the Musée de la Marine gives a fascinating insight into Toulon's water-based endeavours. It exhibits some intricate scale models of old ships and historic paintings of the city. You can almost smell the salt and sweaty sailors.

Tourist Train
Tired legs? Blistered feet? Jump on the tourist train and see the sights whilst sitting on your behind. On summer afternoons, this little train is thoroughly enjoyable. It departs from the port to the beaches every half hour - call or check with the tourist office for departure times.

Photography Museum
The compact but high-calibre photographic museum Maison de la Photographie is a great way to spend a few hours if you're all shipped-out by Toulon's naval history. It exhibits contemporary works in a two-tiered, light-filled space.
