Magnificent Calangue de Sugiton, beautiful bathing place

Beautiful swimming area, which can either be reached via adventurous trails, or via a direct, easier hiking trail. But walking is hip either way. You can park at the university, which is also easily accessible to the public

Beautiful view of the cove from the cliffs. The cove is nestled between the capes of Morgiou and Sugiton, and is home to a port and a small village.

October 12, 2025,🇫🇷🌇🍷 Oh la la: Hübsche Wanderung zur Calanque de Sugiton ab Luminy #marseilletours

We really liked the narrow alleys with the colorful murals of Le Panier, but you can't spend the whole day sipping pastis and vin blanc and staring at walls, even if some residents might disagree. So on Sunday, we took the bus out to the Luminy university campus to hike from there to the Calanque de Sugiton. Wikipedia defines these …

An essential hike from Marseille departing from the University of Lumigny, very well served by bus.
(3km of bus recorded pae error at the end).

the trail was harder than the description suggests, more climbing than hiking

A few missteps....
Not recommended in wet weather, very slippery rock.

A really nice hike to the Calanques de Sugiton. In the turquoise blue water you can swim fantastically. The way back was very adventurous and includes a lot of daring climbing. But the hardships are worth it, because you get a picturesque view of the Mediterranean Sea

Very nice hike, a little technical in some places and especially a lot of people. To do outside the end of school holidays.

October 12, 2023,Belvédère de Sugiton – Aiguille de Sugiton Runde von Luminy

At the Sentier de Torpilleur I got off the path because the markings were badly faded. I suddenly found myself at the end of a well-trodden path that ends at a precipice. I climbed around the rockfall, which I wouldn't recommend. It would have made more sense to go back and look for the right climb.
