Come aboard our flagship SIMONE and set out to explore the red-rock calanques of the Estérel.
With attentive service from our crew (Captain & Hostess), you’ll discover (almost) all of its secrets.

Our tours are structured as follows:

  • A 20-minute cruise at cruising speed to reach Cap Dramont, the starting point of the Estérel massif.
  • About an hour of exploration at a very slow pace, hugging the coastline to discover coves, rocky inlets, islets, and (almost) all the secrets of the massif.
  • A 30- to 45-minute stop at anchor in the calanques to enjoy the turquoise waters and a complimentary aperitif.
  • Return to the port of Saint-Raphaël, hair blowing in the wind, savoring the sensations this type of boat provides.

You’re on vacation, so we’ve taken care of everything so you can just sit back and enjoy the moment.

However, we recommend that you bring the following:

  • Sunglasses
  • Sunscreen
  • Hat or cap (especially for your children)
  • Swimsuits and towels are also welcome on board

 

A camera and/or phone to capture the stunning lights of the mountains are recommended on board and will be safe on the boat.
Simone is a very comfortable and safe vessel—there’s hardly any spray on board!

Safety

We welcome you aboard a French commercial vessel, offering all the assurances that comes with it.
Robust design, annual safety inspection by the French Maritime Authority, and all necessary safety equipment (life jackets for adults and children, etc.).
Our professional crew is also subject to French law, ensuring competence, reliability, and safety for your family and friends.

 

Comfort

  • 32 seats on board
  • Tables + sun loungers – Bar area for 8 people on the ship’s aft deck.
  • Drinks included throughout the trip (cold water and fruit juice), and if you’re on your best behavior, the captain will likely bring out a nice bottle of rosé from his galley (Château
  • Rasque, one of our best Côtes de Provence wines)
  • Swimming ladder, outdoor shower, Bluetooth sound system
  • Bimini top to provide shade

It was amazing! The beauty of the calanques, the colors of the water and the rocks, a stop for a swim, and thrills guaranteed on the way back. We were guided by Christophe, who was very friendly and passionate. A fantastic experience—I highly recommend it!
