Another very good app if you intend to go for walks in Parc National des Calanques. It is packed with very useful informations about history, fauna, flora of the park. It also let you know when the park is closed (in summer time, the park is often forbidden due to high fire risk when the wind blows. On the app, you can also download the map of the pedestrian paths of the park, which is very useful as you will have no network in many areas in the park and you can easily get lost.
