Can you swim in the Calanques?
Swimming spots in the Calanques are difficult to reach, and there are no amenities such as toilets, showers, refreshment stands, and waste bins. They are also often crowded. If your preferred activity is swimming, try the urban beaches in Marseille, Cassis, and La Ciotat. They are much more accessible.
