Callelongue, Coastal inlet in Marseille's 9th arrondissement, France

The narrow limestone calanque features white cliffs that plunge into the Mediterranean Sea, forming a natural harbor with fishermen's cabins along its shore.

A chemical processing factory operated in Callelongue from 1849 to 1884, transforming the traditional fishing port before the buildings were later converted for other purposes.

Small fishing boats line the sheltered port while a local restaurant serves fresh seafood, maintaining the maritime traditions of this Mediterranean community.

Visitors can reach Callelongue by taking RTM bus line 19 to Madrague de Montredon, then connecting to line 20 for the final segment.

The surrounding rocky formations include Les Lames and Le pas de la Demi-Lune, with vertical peaks of Le rocher des Goudes reaching 258 meters in height.
