I stand in front the tram track (I think it is safer and the car regularly stops bcz of it. Also if no tram they can stop on track). It is a nice shade here and over all good stop to get out of a Marsej (Montepellier or Nîmes)―Sova

Single male, no French. Plenty of cars, mostly heading Marseille I believe. But I spent the night here in this Aire, I set up a tent but it was a little terrifying ngl. After 1 am, car thiefs started robbing the place, or it was an alarm triggered automatically to scare of thieves but surely it was an dangerous place to sleep. If you ever need to sleep here, there is a partially hidden and safe spot surrounded by trees and have two big poles, next to the benches when you pass the basketball court. It is also a home to bunch of cats. I set my tent there but still didnt sleep until 4 am just to be sure. Also keep it in mind that thieves come by with a car and get away with a car, so anywhere away from the roads are more safe.―whiterabbit

Fantastic spot just by the petrol station with a speed bump to slow down cars. A minivan pulled into the petrol station within 10mins to go to Marseille.―Anonymous

Good spot to stop someone who goes to Arles or maybe further. With a sign Arles it was easy. There we continued through Nimes, Montpellier and Perpignan.―TwoThumbsTravel

Direct way to Arles, but on national road, not highway. Young guy took us to nearest town, where we continued through Arles, Nimes, Montpellier and Perpignan.―TwoThumbsTravel

Pretty fine place, lot of traffic. Two guys took us a bit further to the end of Marseille, where we continued through Arles, Nimes, Montpellier and Perpignan. Had a sign Arles.―TwoThumbsTravel

Just next to the barrier is very good spot to go south. I was holding sign Marseille and after an hour got a direct ride there. The station is very good - you can refill you water, use toilets for free and buy relatively not expensive coffee. During Sunday all traks are resting, however on working day it is worth to ask truckdrivers for a ride.―estasbien

I waited for 1.5 h until someone stopped. I said just drive right behind the traffic light. There we had enough time to go into the car. Afterwards we drove around the building. I waited in front of the traffic light with a sign (direction Avignion / Salon De Pce)―Anonymous

I came here around 7 pm on a Monday, got a lift to Marseille after less than 10 mins. However, cars go fast here and I feel like it was my luck.. Nice spot 🍀―ikikii

Seems to be a good alternative to the roundabout at L'Arc de Triumph - slow traffic, traffic lights, wide shoulders - but it's horrible. We broke down eventually and took a bus to a better spot outside town (Aix-en-Provance). It's just not very freaquently used, compared to L'Arc (which also sucks as a hitchhiking point, for other reasons). However, when we were there (6.2009) there were road construction that made it difficult, maybe it's better now. Check at your own risk.―Anonymous

We were 3 people, and got a ride to Avignon after 5 seconds. Other hitchhikers were there when we arrived. From the central station (Gare St Charles) walk 3 minutes northwest along the main road (follow the road signs for the A7 north). The spot is on the entry road to the autoroute. There is lots of space for you to stand, and for drivers to stop. Although it's in the city centre, it is a wonderful place.―Anonymous
