Continue your adventure to Calanque des Pierres Tombées, where you'll encounter a fascinating geological formation sculpted between sand and rock. Nearby, the enchanting Sugiton creek awaits, known for its natural diving board and crystal-clear waters, beloved by locals.

Explore the authentic village of Calanque de Morgiou, a quaint fishing cove steeped in tradition and inhabited by generations of fishermen. Then, venture to Calanque de Sormiou, admired for its rugged landscapes and popularity among locals.

As you return to Cassis, experience a thrilling ride with exhilarating speeds, offering a fresh perspective of the majestic massif you've just explored. Witness the awe-inspiring beauty of Cap Canaille, the third-highest maritime cliff in Europe, as you enter the bay of Cassis.

Conclude your journey in the charming fishing port of Cassis, where you can reflect on your unforgettable adventure amidst picturesque surroundings.

Arriving at Calanque des Pierres Tombées, you'll encounter an intriguing geological formation, seemingly sculpted between sand and rock. Next up is Sugiton, one of Marseille's most beautiful creeks, renowned for its clear water and natural diving board.

Continuing the journey, you'll arrive at Morgiou Creek, home to one of Marseille's most authentic villages, steeped in fishing tradition passed down through generations.

After Morgiou's crest, you'll reach the popular Calanque de Sormiou, offering breathtaking landscapes to admire.

As the boat ride nears its end, you'll cruise along the edge of Riou Island, known for its underwater treasures and diverse wildlife.

During the return trip, enjoy a different perspective, revealing equally magnificent landscapes. Upon reaching Cassis Bay, you'll be greeted by the majestic Cap Canaille, Europe's third-highest sea cliff, standing tall in its ochre splendor.
