About Pointe de la Cacau
Pointe de Cacau is a rocky point on the coast of Cassis, just west of the Pierres Blanches area and the Bon Voyage chapel, at the start of the Calanques coastline. Its flat limestone slabs are used by a small number of nude sunbathers, an informal practice rather than an official designation. Access is on foot from the coastal path, with no facilities. Take shoes for the sharp rocks and water for the walk; the Calanques massif can be closed on high fire-risk days.
This France naturist beach is a clothing-optional place in a traditionally tolerated setting. Families are welcome.
Legal context
Naturism at Pointe de la Cacau sits under France's rules for traditional tolerance — custom more than statute.
