Plage de la calanque des Eaux Salées

The Plage de la calanque des Eaux Salées is a Mediterranean beach nestled in a narrow cove framed by tall limestone cliffs. The shore is covered with smooth pebbles and overlooks clear water that stretches toward the open sea.

This cove is part of the Côte Bleue, a stretch of coast used as a natural harbor for maritime and trade activities since ancient times. For centuries, people sought shelter here for sailing, fishing, and commerce.

The cove draws people seeking a quieter alternative to busier Mediterranean beaches in the region. Locals value this spot for its connection to the sea and everyday coastal life.

Reaching this beach requires walking along railway tracks and descending a flight of steps, so sturdy shoes are important. Plan for a short walk and watch your footing on the uneven path to stay safe.

A commuter train crosses a viaduct directly above the beach, creating an unexpected moment where visitors witness modern infrastructure and nature side by side. This unexpected presence adds an interesting layer to the experience of being here.
