You're standing on the Île d'If, the smallest island in the Frioul archipelago, about one and a half kilometres off Marseille. The whole island is one big fortress. Look at the high ramparts on top of the steep cliffs, with platforms for cannons. Apart from the fortress, nobody lives on the island.
