Luminy

I had a g-2 / LFV workshop at the Aix-Marseille University in Luminy. It is wonderfully near the Mediterranean coast. There is a hiking path in the area that brings you to many different places where one could see students and local French residents sunbathing and playing the the water. It is at the very last stop of bus 21 in downtown Marseille.

A view of the calanque in Luminy. You have to be there to be amazed.



We are actually quite high up. We would finally end up at the area near the boats below.


The calanque. So beautiful.

This is the place great for retirement. I could imagine myself waking up and taking a small boat to sea every weekend.
It totally worth spending a whole day here to chill and soak in the sun. The sea also provided a spectacular view. Azure blue totally. Just remember to bring your own food and water since everything there is either non-existent or very expensive. Its also a good alternative to downtown Marseille if you want to get away from the busy-ness of a city.

Very high cliffs we went down from.

Finally, the first thing you will see when you enter the national park is this.
