Itinerary
Departure from Port du Béal towards the Calanques de l'Estérel for a 2.5-hour exploration of secret coves and turquoise waters.
To reach the magnificent coves of the Estérel, your route will take you across Mandelieu Bay, dominated by the iconic Château de la Napoule, a true architectural jewel.
As you sail along Théoule-sur-Mer, admire the spectacular cliffs of Pointe de l'Aiguille and their secret coves, then discover two iconic sites: the Maison Bulle and the Palais Bulle, perched on the cliff. From our Black Tenders, you will also enjoy a privileged view of Port la Galère, a private and exclusive seaside resort that is usually inaccessible and can only be seen up close from the sea. The red rocks typical of the Estérel and its Mediterranean vegetation complete this unique natural setting.
As you arrive in the Estérel, the Corniche d'Or reveals its red rocks plunging into turquoise waters. Enjoy a refreshing break in a secluded cove, then let yourself be surprised by a secret cave accessible only from the sea, in the heart of this spectacular natural setting.
Cap Roux is a cape located on the French Riviera, in the Estérel massif, between Agay and Théoule-sur-Mer, near the Anthéor district of Saint-Raphaël, in the Var department. It is one of the most beautiful sites in the massif.
On your return to port, enjoy one last glimpse of the turquoise waters and unspoiled coves of the Estérel. Savor the calm of the sea and the exceptional panoramic views of the coastline before returning to port, your eyes filled with memories.

Fun easy beautiful and just right amount of time and talking It’s a great way to see natural beauty of Cannes
Really enjoyable half day, in beautiful clear water and lovely scenery. Our tour guide was really great!
Superb sea outing with a tour and swimming. The guide Stéphane was top-notch and the young woman at the reception as well. Remember to bring snorkeling masks. Small personal items may be brought on board, ideally in a waterproof bag.
We spent a wonderful day at sea as a family with Antoine as Skipper. We were lucky to have good wind and the sailing was very beautiful. Three swims in beautiful locations! Top-notch
Amazing day amazing guide - perfect weather-great stops to swim - very friendly and informative guide-
We were informed of the cancellation of the excursion half an hour before departure. Really not cool.
So exciting to see the coast line - dramatic and beautiful. We had a rough day so if the rock of the boat doesn’t suit you this trip would not be for you - but if you love boats then this trip is unbeatable
Really a lovely experience and a great way to get another view of Cannes and the fabulous Esterel. Highly recommended!!
What a great, informative experience. It was fun - safe - with a great guide. The Côte d’Azur is beautiful
Great adventure - this trip allows you to see the coast close up. The rocky coves we were able to get into with this type of boat were neat to see. Bring a sweater - the air is cooler when zipping along in the fall - and bring your bathing suit, a towel and bottle of bubbly to enjoy after a dip in the Mediterranean!
