Calanques - natural wonders

If you’re feeling energetic and want to explore off-the-beaten-path, you can rent a kayak from Port Pin in Cassis. This way you’ll really appreciate the beauty of one of France’s most breath-taking landscapes - Les Calanques. These limestones creeks are sometimes referred to as the French Fjords.

If you prefer to stay on land, a trek from Port Pin to the En-Vau Calanque is easily accessible for the adventurous hiker and reveals dreamy turquoise waters in a hidden cove - paradise guaranteed. You can also opt for a classic boat ride from the port of Cassis that offers views of 3, 5 or 7 Calanques.

Should you be traveling with a small group, opt for a private boat excursion which will get you up closer to the beaches and provide you with scuba gear for some underwater exploration. Don’t leave Provence without a little aqua adventure.
