Anse de Maldormé, Protected cove in 7th arrondissement of Marseille, France
The natural inlet features clear waters surrounded by rocky shores, with stairs leading down to a small beach area suitable for swimming.
The cove has maintained its original character since the early development of Marseille's coastal infrastructure, serving local fishermen through generations.
Local residents have established specific social patterns and traditions at the cove, creating a distinct community atmosphere among regular visitors.
The beach offers limited space and tends to fill quickly during summer months, making early morning visits the best time for access.
Behind the main beach area, a hidden creek accessible via stone steps provides an additional secluded space for visitors seeking privacy.
