Boats, swimming, drinks, and pétanque...that's life in Marseille!

We're Yannick, Philippe and Nicolas. Three Marseillais ... with an accent that wouldn't betray them. Three sailors in love with their harbor and their city.

We specialize in maritime excursions to discover Marseille by sea.

As you may have guessed, we're the captains.

What we love is to take you on a voyage of discovery, summer or winter, to our part of the world in Marseille, aboard our comfortable boats. And what we love is taking the time...

Time to share our favorite places with you, time to tell you the historical stories and legends that have shaped Marseille, time to make you dream and, if you feel like it, time to let you dive into the turquoise waters of our unspoilt coves.

Join us for a 3-hour getaway departing from Marseille’s Old Port: sailing, swimming, aperitifs, and pétanque on a pristine archipelago in the Calanques National Park.

It’s everything we love—and above all, it’s what we love to share!

Climb aboard one of our boats to discover the magnificent landscapes of the Frioul Islands and their calanques with crystal-clear waters. It’s hard to resist taking a dip on sunny days when we’re sheltered in one of the coves. Masks and snorkels are available on board. And during the warmer months, it’s the perfect opportunity to explore this rich historical heritage a little more.

After this swim or rest break, we’ll stop at Port Frioul, a unique, island-like district of Marseille. And, over a Provençal aperitif, it’ll be time to challenge your loved ones or fellow travelers to a game of pétanque, Marseille-style, in a warm and authentically local atmosphere (complete with the accent!).

Then it’ll be time to head back, with an incredible view of Marseille’s harbor. Just like on the way there, we’ll sail along the coast near the famous Château d’If, the prison of the equally famous Count of Monte Cristo.

We’ll also take the opportunity to make a detour so you can discover the Vallon des Auffes, a small traditional fishing port.

Some useful information: the aperitif (drinks and Provençal delicacies) and the rental of pétanque balls are included in the price.

The tour is guaranteed to run with a minimum of 4 participants.
