The Parc National des Calanques, also known as the Calanques National Park, is a protected area located on the Mediterranean coast of southern France. It was established as a national park in 2012 and covers an area of approximately 5200 hectares.
The park is known for its stunning landscape of rugged cliffs, deep blue sea, and hidden coves or calanques, which are narrow inlets between cliffs that are filled with crystal clear water. The calanques provide habitat for many marine species, including fish, crabs, and mollusks. The park also includes several islands, including the Ile de Riou, which is home to a variety of bird species.
The Calanques National Park is a popular destination for hiking, rock climbing, swimming, and boating. There are several hiking trails that offer stunning views of the calanques and the Mediterranean Sea. Visitors can also take boat tours to explore the calanques from the sea.
