On of the most memorable nature trips of my life. We took a boat tour from the port of Marseille and we could not believe our eyes, every corner was filled with the most amazing views. A must do when in Marseille.

Beautiful national park on the Mediterranean coast. We were here rock climbing for a week. You could stay here a year and never do the same 2 climbs. So much to explore and climb. Incredible rock and views. Definitely do the 6 pitch 5.10a Arete de Marseille. Some of the more popular climbing areas are a little slick from wear. Still, worth it and highly recommend for a climbing trip!!

Did the La traversée des Calanques (1/3): Marseille - Luminy and what fantastic views, it was challenging but the perfect way to relax and unwind, especially woth no cell reception. I used Mes Calanques app to find a trail and the map worked perfectly.

Stunning place, rugged mountain cliffs perched above the mediteranean. Hiked the red-white trail from les Baumettes to Cassis, aprox 25km. Tough terrain, sometimes became quite exposed, not your average walk in the park, attention to the path and markings is key. Losing or missing a sign can lead you to the middle of nowhere. Bring plenty of water.

Visiting the Calanques National Park was an absolutely sublime experience. The turquoise waters are breathtaking, and the way the sea crashes against the mountains creates a powerful, almost overwhelming sensation. I had the chance to discover it on a yacht, which made the experience even more unique and luxurious, allowing me to fully enjoy the hidden coves and majestic cliffs. The contrast between the crystal-clear sea, the bright limestone rocks, and the calm Mediterranean atmosphere is unforgettable. A true natural wonder that I would highly recommend to anyone visiting Marseille.

Great place to spend time if you are traveling with kids. Lots of different animals to see. Interesting facts mentioned in attractive way for kids to read.

No fire, no smoking and no litter please ! Gemstone water at the foot of dizzy white cliffs. A good physical condition is better since you may need at minimum about 1h of walking one way from the parking to the beach. Check on the internet if the path is open, it closes on dry and windy times to limit wildfire risks and you need a reservation (free) during summer. You can also choose to dive there, which is a great way to see the Mediterranean fishes near Riou, where fishing is prohibited.

It is a beautiful place, with a very easy trail to walk and a splendid landscape. Easy to access from the city center. I highly recommend this place for anyone who wants to stay closer to nature and away while in Marseille
