Calanque of Port-Miou in Cassis - France
Information on the Calanque of Port-Miou in Cassis (France)
Description and location of the Calanque of Port-Miou in Cassis (13260)
Our opinion on the Calanque of Port-Miou
The calanque of Port-Miou of Cassis is the only one in the seaside resort. Even if we find a little beach nearby, it is not easy to swim. It is only a harbor for many boats. It is found just behind the peninsula of Cassis and is the start point to visit the different calanques of Marseille, including the calanque Port-Pin which can be accessed by a 30 minutes walk.
We can get here from the center of Cassis in 30 minutes by foot. It is equally accessible by car if you follow the avenue des Calanques. A small parking lot is found here. You can also park on the peninsula then get to the calanque by foot.

Photos of the Calanque of Port-Miou
The first calanque of Marseille Cassis extends over 1km. Even if we find a tiny beach (gravel – on the right side of the photo), this beach is not a swimming zone but uniquely a harbor.
