Details
Visit the Mediterranean coastline on board our boat trip in the Calanques of Marseille. Starting from Marseille's Vieux Port, you will embark on our eco-friendly boat towards the Calanques National Park. During the whole cruise, our captain will share with you all his knowledge about the iconic places of Marseille and the history of the city! We will also explain why it is necessary to preserve this fragile natural heritage. Once we reached the small passage between Maïre Island and the Croisette Cap, we will be in the Calanques National Park. The word "calanques" describes a valley carved by a river before reaching the sea. This phenomenon makes the Mediterranean coastline unique.
You will visit the Calanques of Marseille. The ship might pass by Sormiou and/or the Rioul archipelago, depending on the weather. We will spend more or less time in each calanque, depending on the weather and your wishes. You will also have the possibility to swim for about half an hour in the crystal clear water of the Mediterranean Sea in one of the calanques. On the way back to the starting point, you will again have the opportunity to admire a unique view of the coastline and its magnificent rock formations.
