There is only one airport in Marseille.

There is a shuttle bus from the airport to the new station called Vitrolles Aeroport Marseille Provence, from where a train will take you to into the city and Gare St Charles.

Timetable for those trains is here

http://www.mp.aeroport.fr/img/commun/acces-train/horairesvamp.pdf

If the timetable doesn't work for you (there are some long gaps between trains) there is a bus from the airport to St Charles every 20 minutes.

From there it is another train to Toulon.

There may be some through trains but there is nothing indicated as so in the two timetables.

Hope that helps.

in english

from airport to train station on the bus is about 25 minutes;you can buy the ticket ahead but not necessary ,again in english
http://www.navettemarseilleaeroport.com/achatAng.php

once in train station ,you can buy your ticket to Toulon on the regional Provence TER trains ,takes about an hour to Toulon. here is the site
this time in French, sorry ::)
http://www.ter-sncf.com/Paca/carte_horaires/index.asp#
you should be able to copy and paste, if not, take the basic WWW.TER-SNCF.COM and choose PACA, then on the right side choose FICHE HORAIRE destination 01 Marseille-Toulon-Hyéres. you would see the schedule of trains hours. Buy your ticket upon arrival at the station;no need to buy in advance.
Have a great trip, hpe it helps
