Port de Sormiou

Tucked into one of Marseille's most jaw-dropping calanques, Port de Sormiou sits at the foot of towering white limestone cliffs in the Parc National des Calanques. You're mooring inside a sheltered creek that feels worlds away from the city, despite being just a short distance from central Marseille. The setting is raw and dramatic, with turquoise water enclosed by steep rock faces that glow in the afternoon sun. From the marina, the famous Calanque de Sormiou is right on your doorstep, making it a rare spot where nature is the entire point.
