We visited the calanques by a boat the first day, and we hiked the second day. The views are stunning. The beauty is out of this world. You have to be in good physical shape for the hike: the rocks can be very slippery: so pay attention, and use a stick if you have one. More

There are several versions of a calanque-tour. You can go by bigger boats, by canoes or by foot. We chose the boats. Here you can choose from 3-5-8 calanque-tours (30 mins, 1 hr, 1 1/2 hrs accordingly). We took the middle one (cca. 15 EUR). The guide was speaking French during the trip, but he spoke English as well and... More

Loved seeing the inlets and how high the calanques really are from sitting in a boat perspective!!!

Absolutely gorgeous view and wonderful nature. We have a choice of visiting 3, 5 or 8 calanques. I think 5 is sufficient - the boat ride takes approximately 1 hour. More

We only had a day in Cassis. We purposely drove there after Marseilles (we were staying in Vaison La Romaine) and the drive wasnt that bad. We got there faster than expected. The seaside with all the restaurants and the boats docked reminded me a little of Vancouver. The streets were a little on the hilly side (we've had to... More

Actually, I wasn't sure where are we going with friends, but this what Calanques has to offer is definitely more than i could expect! We did approx. 5 hours trip walking and reached 3rd Calanques. This place has everything to offer - beatiful views, fresh air, oportunity to take wonderful pictures, sunbath and swim! But be careful, because some routes... More

Really rough seas the day we went so we only covered two Calanques. Woud reco longer trip that allows for swimming etc providing conditions allow. More

take the 1 1/2 hour tour, unless the wind is blowing 30 knots, then take foul weather gear. This is the thing to do in Cassis when you tire of hiking and people watching. More
