This fabulous cruise will take you between Marseille's Old Port and the Calanques National Park in complete tranquillity. Watch the cliffs, pine trees and turquoise water as the captain explains the history of the Phocaean city during the crossing.
The route - From the Old Port to the Parc National des Calanques
Duration: 4h30
Depart from the Old Port and embark on an excursion to discover Marseille's hidden treasures. The captain will introduce you to the history of Marseille and the city's emblematic monuments. You'll then enter the Parc National des Calanques, where you'll learn about the ecology and preservation of this area. You'll visit the Calanques of Callelongue, Marseilleveyre, Podestat, L'Escu, Cortiou, Sormiou and the Riou Archipelago. Then enjoy a swim in a heavenly calanque: snorkels, masks and flippers are at your disposal to discover the magnificent translucent seabed. Then return to the Vieux Port.
By boat
Visit the calanques from Marseille aboard an eco-friendly ship. This low-impact boat is ideal for small groups (maximum 12 people). It is powered by a latest-generation hybrid engine, enabling it to run on electric power as it approaches the calanques. Its roof is covered with 6 solar panels for autonomous navigation in electric mode, and its special hull reduces fuel consumption.
You'll be amazed by the calanques' scenery and biodiversity. Ideal for a ride that's 100% fun and environmentally friendly!

Great! Very well organized. We had a swim and were able to shower and changed. Everything is provided for. We were even able to refresh ourselves with drinks and drinks and cakes. I'd recommend this cruise.

Unfortunately, our cruises were changed twice due to bad luck with the weather. But they offered to adapt the cruise and we had a great time at sea. Greg was a great guide and captain, very pleasant and full of knowledge to help us discover Marseille and its history. What's more, we had a very nice group of people on board. We had a great time. Thanks again to Greg and eco calanques for their availability to meet our needs. We'll be happy to cruise with them again.

Splendid! The trip was beautiful and very comfortable. The boat anchored in 2 different calanques and we bathed in crystal-clear water. Our skipper was very friendly and hospitable. For my last day of vacation, a beauty bath!

Very easy to contact Very friendly staff The boat trip was nice but I must admit I was disappointed not to be able to do the calanques, which was the main purpose of the boat trip. But we received an e-mail telling us that the houlle did not allow us to do the calanques, so it was preferable to do the côte bleue ...much less pretty than what was planned .... I understand the change of course but the disappointment is there....
