With only a couple more days to go in our trip we decided to stay fairly local and do one last hike near Cassis. The plan was to hike from Cassis into three calanques (inlets), have a swim at the third one then hike back. The first calanque, Port Miou, was a mooring place for many boats and a former quarry. The second one, Port Pin, had a small beach area with many sunbathers. The third one, Calanque d'en Vau, which we had seen in our cruise boat into the calanques, had been described to us by several people as their favourite and a good place for swimming. It was a long climb uphill to a great lookout over the calanque, but the downhill scramble to the calanque was pretty steep and high, so we decided not to go down to it, but rather take another loop around the edges of these last two calanques.
