Boat tour of Cassis tomorrow...

I am taking a train from Marseille tomorrow morning to Cassis. I plan to try and find a good boat tour that launches from Cassis. Does anyone know how far the port of Cassis is from where the train stops? I am entirely on foot. I'd like any recommendations on what boat tour to take if anyone knows. My train leaves at 6:30 or so from Marseille. I found one boat tour that leaves from Marseille but since I am taking a train to Cassis I'd like to be able to get a tour ticket from the port if possible.

The station is fife minutes far from the harbour in Cassis. http://www.ot-cassis.com/fr/les-calanques-en-bateau.html

It's a long walk from the train station down to the harbour (all boats leave from the main quay, by the beach), several km.
The good news is: there is a bus connecting with many trains from Marseille: http://www.ot-cassis.com/fr/bus-intra-urbain-la-marcouline.html easy on the way down, but you will need to ask the driver where exactly the bus stop is on the way back, as it"s along one way streets.
You buy your ticket directly from the boats' captain, or the small kiosk on the port, by the bowl game ground (if it's open). No need to book, normally. IMHO the longer cruises are worth the money (8 or 9 calanques).
The bad news is: check the weather...it may be raining and windy, most of the day.

Hello, I'll be flying into Marseille airport and would like to go to Cassis from the airport. I understand the bus from Marseille at Castellane-Prado drops you off in the town center of Cassis, and so it's the better option than the train. How does one get from the Marseille airport to the bus stop at Castellane-Prado? Thanks in advance.
