It’s not everyday that one gets to explore a National Park from the water, especially in Europe. However this isn’t the case for Calanques National Park.
As one was unsure of whether steps led onto the boat, we decided to take the manual wheelchair down to Vieux Port just in case. However, there was no need to worry as there was a level platform at the rear of the boat which didn’t involve any steps….

As the boat twisted and turned it’s way around the coastal terrain, it provided a great vantage point to admire the National Park…


The strategy for tomorrow is to visit Notre Dam in the morning before hopping onto the Marseille Metro
to visit the Museum of European and Mediterranean Civilisations, or rather the bridge which you need to walk across to access it. In the meantime, doesn’t Marseille look pretty at night…
