Calanque de la Vesse, Mediterranean calanque in Le Rove, France

The Vesse calanque features limestone cliffs extending into turquoise waters, with a small pebble beach nestled beneath a railway viaduct constructed of white stones.

The white stone railway viaduct of the Blue Train of Calanques, constructed in 1915, crosses the landscape and connects Marseille to Miramas through coastal routes.

Local fishermen maintain their traditional practices at the small port, while the secluded beach attracts visitors seeking Mediterranean swimming and diving experiences.

Visitors must park at the village entrance from May to August and walk fifteen minutes to reach the calanque, as coastal parking becomes restricted.

The calanque opens wider to the sea than typical calanques between Cassis and Marseille, offering clear views of the Frioul islands and Estaque port.
