Created by natural phenomena and shaped by wind, sea, and rain over the past 120 million years, the Cassis calanques are an incredible work of art. Take a small boat cruise around the world-famous Calanca Massif, made up of limestone cliffs that plunge into the Mediterranean Sea. It is a magical and enchanting place.
