A “visiting permit” will soon be tested for the first time in the Calanque de Sugiton in Marseille, a very busy site that has been threatened for several years by erosion. From July 15 to August 15, “at a minimum”, visitors will now have to reserve their place online, free of charge, on a dedicated platform.
For the first time in France in a national park, a “visiting permit” will be tried out to access a small Mediterranean cove overcrowded and threatened with erosion, in the heart of the Calanques national park in Marseille, we learned , Monday, January 31, at the park.
The Calanque de Sugiton and its turquoise waters, formed by two small steep-sided pebble beaches, is very popular in summer, when its attendance can reach 1,500 people per day depending on the national park.
“There is a real problem of erosion on this site which has a bit of earth, not just rock, and the pines in particular are in danger of heaving,” a spokesperson for the park told AFP. by confirming the initial information from the daily newspaper La Provence.
“If we did nothing, we risked losing this landscape completely,” he said. Especially since Sugiton has been threatened for several years: in summer, due to the lack of visibility of the path, “hikers have taken other passages in the pine forest, which has had a disastrous effect on the vegetation”.
To remedy this, the park has redefined the trail and created “no go zones” using posts, “but that’s not enough in the summer”.
Other reasons have led the park to regulate access to Sugiton: the high risk of fire in this area and the character “of healing and appeasement” of the place, “which was no longer guaranteed at all”.
online booking
From July 15 to August 15, “at a minimum”, visitors will now have to reserve their place online, free of charge, on a dedicated platform. Objective: limit the number of visitors to “200 to 300 people maximum per day”, depending on the park.
The measure should be “tested” from the weekends of May or June, with terms “being finalized and on which we plan to communicate in March”.
Controls of “permits” will be made at two entry points to the creek “and even at the bottom of the creek” according to the park, which underlined that this “experimental measure is very followed and is of interest to other protected areas such as the Ocres of Roussillon”.
According to the French Office for Biodiversity, questioned by AFP, this “reservation” is a first in France for a national park.
Since the deconfinement of spring 2020, the Calanques National Park has been fighting against overcrowding: banning ships without authorization, “demarketing” by publishing photos of crowded beaches to discourage visitors, or even banning access by car.
