Devenson, Coastal inlet in the 9th arrondissement of Marseille, France

The Devenson calanque features limestone cliffs rising 200 meters above the Mediterranean Sea, creating a natural geological formation along the coast.

The name Devenson originates from Provençal terminology, referring to the southern exposure of the cliffs that characterize this section of the coastline.

The cliffs of Devenson serve as a gathering point for climbers who test their abilities on the numerous vertical routes carved into the limestone walls.

Access to Devenson requires either a boat journey or following the GR98-51 hiking trail from Luminy, with a walking time of approximately two hours.

The calanque sits between Oeil de Verre and Eissadon, with its isolation and limited accessibility maintaining its natural state throughout the seasons.
