Overview

Check-out from the Old Port of Cannes, I suggest you discover the coastline by sailing to Sainte-Marguerite Island in the Lérins archipelago.

I would share my passion for sailing, with my restored vintage sailboat, an 8 m Jeanneau Sangria.

Lunchtime will include a picnic at anchor or at the dock, with anchovy and tzatziki (homemade), with a cart of vegetables and rosé wine.

Then you will have the opportunity to sail in the Bay of Cannes. I will share my sailing experience and you can participate in the boat maneuvers for adventure lovers.
You can also swim in the crystal clear waters, discover the seabed with diving masks and enjoy this friendly sailboat.

Swimming towels and diving masks will be included.

From 1st to 20th September, the Check-out will be from the port of Théoule-sur-mer.

What's Included

  • Lunch Vegetables served with anchovy and tzaziki sauce
  • Alcoholic beverages A bottle of Rosé will only be offered to people over 18 years of age.
  • Diving mask.
  • Sunscreen

Frequently Asked Questions (9)

Q: Will I get seasick on Private sailing excursion & Provencal picnic?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
