Spanning the Mediterranean coastline between Marseille, Cassis, and La Ciotat, this national park is famed for its limestone calanques — dramatic fjord-like coastal inlets framed by sheer white cliffs and turquoise waters. Iconic bays such as En-Vau, Sormiou, and Sugiton provide exceptional terrain for coastal hiking, rock climbing, kayaking, and swimming, surrounded by wild Mediterranean scrubland and fragrant Aleppo pines.
