I suggest you get on your canoe and discover one of the seven wonders of Provence in the national park: the Eissadon Calanque. Located between the Calanque de l'Oule and the Devenson, it is the only creek in Cassis accessible only by sea.
If you have your inflatable canoe, I advise you to park at car park of the cove of Port-Miou in Cassis. You can go down to the port of the calanque and inflate the canoe at these GPS coordinates, on the hold. Count 1h15 to reach the creek of Eissadon.
If you don't have a canoe, you can rent one from Cassis beach near the old port, like at CSLN. All the same, count 45 minutes to 1 hour more than starting from the creek of Port Miou.
The Eissadon calanque is characterized by a particular relief called "karstic", made up of numerous rock fractures. It has very steep walls and seems quite wild. The calanque is known for its needle with a very pretty fault in the middle of a rocky drop-off. This fault can be easily crossed by swimming, canoeing or paddleboarding if the weather conditions are good.
