We parked at Col de la Gardiole and made the 1.5hr hike down to the Calanque. The path has paved and loose rocky sections so wear appropriate footwear! We followed the red marked path all the way down, but it is best to bring your own map as the path splits and both paths have red markings... The hike is absolutely worth it when you reach the end. Picture perfect pebbly beach with crystal clear water! Just stunning and so peaceful :)

Amazing place! You arrive at the pebble beach after a beautiful hike through the canyons. The rock walls surrounding the beach are a perfect spot for climbers. In vacations period is very busy, full of people, kayaks and boats.

I highly recommend a boat trip to the calanques. Hiking will take a long time and it is very hot during the summer. The water is very clear and cold in the calanques. Great for snorkeling.

Tough to get there, but worth the effort. Nice trekking route even though a bit scary if you come straight down from the hills. Better bring with you bottles of water (we had 3 with us and we were 2 people). You sweat a lot, get thirsty and there is no place near by where they can sell you tap water. Apart from that, the place is amazing and there aren't that many people around. You can even get there by kayaking which is even nicer

Terrific place, one of the best natural reserves I've seen so far. The walk is rather tough in places, when the path gets rocky. Be sure to wear close toed shoes & have a lot of water. You'll be rewarded with splendid views and a beach. That's a shingle beach, so better take your water shoes with you. It also makes sense to sail on a kayak there (this will take about 1 hour from Port Miou), as you can easily land on the beach, and sailing there seems easier compared to walking.

The long walk is worthy it! I highly recommend to go early in the morning just to enjoy the sun in the beach. Great atmosphere.

It's really worth a visit. Not so easy to reach. Unfortunately we had jelly fish in the water the time we were there. It was not possible to swim.

Definitely a scramble to reach but so worth the hike. Beautiful cove with unbelievably clear water. A magical place to arrive after a difficult descent. Watch the time you arrive as the steep cliffs means the sun disappears quickly.

It’s a good 2-3 hour walk if you go the longest route (red/white then blue then red/white markings) but well worth it for the scenery and rewarding, chilly dip when you reach d’en Vau. We parked for free on Avenue Notre Dame. I’d recommend arriving early both for the parking and to get down to the beach by midday so that the sun is still shining down past the cliffs. Wear trainers/boots and take all the food & drink you need for the day. Regardless, go here - it’s beautiful

The place is amazing, the beach is rocky and the water is cool and incredibly blue! The 1.5hr trek is completely worth it although make sure to wear closed shoes for it and carry enough water. Beautiful!

Great beach, nice clear water and solid 2 hour hike to get there. Makes for a memorable day. We saw people hiking ranging from teens to seventies, even with the challenging elevation changes you can pace it to your speed and take breaks in the shade.
