  • for someone who loves to hike it's definitely worth it! the paths are just as pretty as the calanque; bring lots lots of water because there are no fountains

  • Beautiful place Overcrowded during the day Come early morning by 3h loop trail or by kayaking
  • The most picturesque lagoon in France that I have visited. Bring a kayak and enjoy! Visit earlier in the day, it gets shady in the afternoon.
  • Definitely worth the trek. Amazing place, the best of the three main calanques in my opinion (and the hardest to reach). The water is a crystal clear turquoise and warm, perfect for a break after the ~2hr hike from Cassis. It's pretty secluded earlier in the day so I would recommend leaving as early as possible to avoid the crowds and the beaming sun.
  • Beautiful place, crystal clear water. May be worth starting your walk from port miou to get the view from the top on the way but I'm sure the parking is easier if you start from the route gineste. Can still walk up to a higher viewpoint if you wish. There are some jellyfish in the water , so watch out.
  • The place is super nice, I visited it in November and it was very nice, with hardly any people. The low score is due to the fact that they BROKE the window of the car I had rented in an attempt to STEAL it. I had parked it in the car park next to the road and it was in a visible place. It was not the only car, so it is quite common. In my case they didn't steal anything, but they did make my holiday a bitter one. So please try to go by bus to this place, to avoid it. You will never be safe leaving your car parked there
