The Calanques cruise, Marseille
Smooth sailing.
A Calanque is basically a steep walled inlet developed in limestone or dolomite. The best formations that exist are the ones we did, that is, the ones along the coast from Marseille to Cassis.
Unfortunately because it was overcast yesterday we didn’t get to see the beautiful crystal aqua colour of the sea, (Google image ‘Calanque’ and you’ll know what I mean) nevertheless the dramatic landscape was still remarkable and we had the added bonus of sailing past Chateau d’If – made famous by Dumas’ novel The Count of Monte Cristo.
