Hike in Les Calanques

Explore the stunning nature of this coastal region in France by hiking in the Calanques. We took the 'Sentier Panoramique' route. This trail takes you along the most beautiful panoramic views of the rugged cliffs, crystal-clear Mediterranean waters and the breathtaking landscape. To make the most out of this experience, it's best to start your hike at 9 o'clock in the morning, for cooler temperatures and a lot less people around. You can park your car at the "Presqu'île" parking area. From there, you can start your hike and visit three different calanques.

Lunch with a view

Get yourself some lunch from L’Amour du Pain, a French bakery and pastry shop in Cassis. It’s located on your way to the scenic Route des Crêtes. With a baguette in hand and a pastry to satisfy your sweet tooth, start the breathtaking 35km drive. As you wind along the Parc National des Calanques, you'll be treated to panoramic views rising above the coastal towns of Marseille, Cassis, and La Ciotat.

Sunset dinner on the rocks of Tuba Club

Tuba Club has our heart. Having dinner on the cliffs when the sun is setting is truly unforgettable. The vibrant atmosphere, seaside charm, the sound of the waves crashing into the cliffs brings the experience to a whole other level. The fact that the food is excellent and you can share all the dishes on the menu makes it perfect. Above the restaurant you also have "Le Bikinis," a new terrace where you can have drinks and share bites. Drink a cocktail while overlooking the sea and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Besides the stylisch restaurant and bar, Tuba also has chic cliffside rooms with a view. The rooms are characterized by the minimalist design, where simplicity meets nature. A must-visit!
