Sailboat Experience
Along the Riviera
Take family or friends out on a sailboat for the day. Your cruise will depart from various ports on the Riviera.
Your English/French speaking Skipper will look after you and give you plenty of time to snorkel and swim off the boat.
An example of a full day sailing trip would be: pick up Antibes or Cannes (for example) from these ports your skipper would:
take you to the stunning and unforgettable Lerin Islands off the coast of Cannes. Ile St Maguerite and Il St Honorat; both oozing with history and beauty:
... Île Saint-Honorat is a private island and an oasis of silence, it belongs to the monks of the Abbey of Lérins.
You can stroll through this wooded island of Aleppo pines and beautiful umbrella pines, along the paths lined with turquoise waters.
You can visit many monuments for free. Saint-Honorat Island has been a classified site since 1941 and has five historical monuments: the tower-monastery (first classified in 1840 in the Alpes Maritimes); Saint-Sauveur chapel (1886); the Trinity Chapel (1886); two Napoleonic ball ovens (1908).
The gorgeous island of Saint Marguerite is the largest of the islands off the coast of Cannes.
Covered with pine and eucalyptus forest and edged with beautiful coves, this is an island to enjoy nature. The waters are crystal clear, with stunning views back to the Riviera coastline. There are only about 20 houses on the island in a small village near the ferry dock; the rest of the island is covered in forest.
The 17th century fort on Ile St Marguerite gained notoriety for housing the 'Man in the Iron Mask' - a prisoner during the time of Louis XIV and immortalised by the writers Voltaire & Alexander Dumas (and by Leonardo di Caprio in the 1998 film of the same name).
Between the 2 islands is something quite remarkable – 6 foot sculptures of faces, sitting on the bed of the ocean ready for you to snorkel and swim around; an enchanting range of sculptures in an equally enchanting area of the French Riviera.
Your day Sail will also take you around Cap d’Antibes, where you will can wonder at the huge exquisite villas and the exceptional beauty of this part of Antibes.
You can have lunch on board or we can organise lunch at a restaurant
