Malmousque, Administrative quarter in 7th arrondissement of Marseille, France.
Malmousque extends along the Mediterranean coastline, featuring small fishing shelters and traditional houses built around a natural harbor inlet.
The name first appeared in historical records as Lumena Moscas in 1286, deriving from Provençal Occitan Malamosca, meaning bad fly.
Local fishermen maintain their maritime traditions in this coastal neighborhood, where small boats line the protected coves near residential areas.
The district connects to central Marseille through regular bus services, with the Endoume bus stop located within five minutes walking distance.
Natural swimming pools form in the limestone rocks along the shoreline, creating secluded spots between the traditional fishing cabins.
