Calanque de Morgiou

We took a hike about 2km each way. Took our large dog with us, she did walked it all, but some parts are covered with large slippery stones.The signage could be more clear, as so many people were a bit lost there, but once you figure it out, then it all makes sense! Take definitely water with you!! When you get to the village, there is one restaurant and they sell water and drinks.

Great spot to swim, the hike down was not super long, however make sure you have shoes with a grip as the rocks climbing down are very smooth and slippery! There was a part near the beach with a chain/rope to help climb down the steep spot. Water is very salty but not cold. Lovely dock area at the beach,

The view it’s impressive, the hike was difficult but worth it. Unfortunately we were not prepared with water shoes , so was uncomfortable because of the stones on the beach and in the water . The water was freezing but amazingly clear and clean.

Very beautiful!! Can be a long hike depending on your entrance. Going from Les Baumettes is a nicer hike but longer. There is also a part that is quite steep. Luminy entrance is shorter distance but you don’t see as much on the hike. No reservation needed. Overall, no matter your hiking route it is worth the effort. Water is crystal clear and can be a bit cold but it is just what you want after a sweaty hike.

Amazing views! Trekking shoes are strongly recommended because the path is full of slippery stones and quite steep. But the scenery is definitely worth it. The beach is pretty small and there were many jellyfish in the water today so we didn’t try bathing there.

One of the most popular hikes in the calanques links two of the biggest - Sormiou and Morgiou - with the climb over the Crete de Morgiou. Here you can take a pause, enjoy the sun, have a swim or have a lunch or a coffee in the only restaurant - le Bar Nautic. Views are just breathtaking.

The small beaches here are great. One of them is with small pebble-stones, the other beach is just stone with pebble entrance to the sea. You have to come early tho, if you want to swim alone. Because of it is small, it gets full quickly. You have to park 3,5 km (car) away from this calanque, only the locals can get through the gates. So you have to walk on partly-walkingroutes that can take up to 30 min (maybe 2,8 km). You have hiking routes that can take you to great spots to take pictures. Tips: Go early Take (light) shoes you can swim with Big bottle of water Shoes for hiking (if you want to hike) Goggles (you can see small fishes swimming around your legs, we saw even an octopus) A bientot !

A very nice Calanque. Beautiful. If you come with your own sailing boat, you are likely to anchor at 15 m dept. In summer there will be many boats at anchor and it can feel crowded. Also during the day there is a continued stream of day tripper boats, which is very annoying. Thus I only give 4 stars.
