Our opinion on the Morgiret Calanque

Adresse of the Morgiret Calanque : Port 13007 Marseille - Ile de Frioul

Morgiret Cove is located near the port of Frioul and the pier. It is made up of one main beach and two small creeks. Covered in gravel (and very coarse sand), they are easily accessible from the port (no stairs). However, the Mistral blows there. The small creek on the right is nicer but small (only a few places). In the water, there are large stones; it is advisable to wear shoes while swimming.

To get to this cove from the port of Frioul, go to St Esteve Cove. After 200 meters turn left (a sign indicates the creek). It takes about 5 minutes on foot from the port.
