NIOLON: A LITTLE GEM OF THE BLUE COAST

In the middle of the Blue Coast, the calanque of Niolon is located between l'Estaque and Carry le Rouet.
The small harbor comprises some houses and shops. Renowned for its underwater scenery, Niolon delights diving enthusiasts.
A diving center is housed in a former military fort. The view is also remarkable over the entire bay of Marseille and the Frioul Islands. A small trail accessible from the harbor allows you to climb to the top of the cliff for a better view of the calanque of Niolon.
This picturesque calanque shelters a tranquil little beach. You can also explore the neighboring calanques, which are equally worth a visit: the calanques of La Vesse, des Jonquiers, and de l'Érevine.
For hiking enthusiasts, we recommend the hike between Ensuès-La-Redonne and Niolon. It will lead you to the Fort de Niolon, from where you'll have a breathtaking panorama.
After a well-deserved stroll, the restaurants of Niolon will be perfect for a gourmet break in this magnificent setting.
To reach the calanque of Niolon, we recommend taking the Train de la Côte Bleue, which will take you along the coast, allowing you to discover the calanques of the Blue Coast and magnificent landscapes!
And why not opt for a boat rental and sail along the coast to discover all the calanques of Marseille?
