Setting sail from the old port of Saint-Raphaël, come discover the Estérel calanques as you’ve never seen them before.
Cruising along the base of the Estérel massif and its red rocks, you’ll discover:

  • The Golden Island
  • The cliffs of Cap Dramont and its rocky coves
  • The bay of Agay
  • The Îlet des Vieilles and the shores of Anthéor
  • The rocky cove of St Barthélémy
  • Cap Roux and its marine reserve

Suitable for ages 5 and up – Not recommended for women who are more than three months pregnant

Hop aboard our exploration boats in small groups for a relaxed tour of the red rock massif.
With an experienced captain at the helm, escape the crowds and get up close to the rocks—our boats are built for just that!

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, calanques, 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 thrill of sailing in this type of boat.
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!

A wonderful family experience with our amazing captain, Camille! A tour of the Calanques, a fantastic swim surrounded by fish (mask and snorkel provided), and the thrill of riding the waves. Thank you for these wonderful moments!

A superb excursion to see the Esterel calanques.

We went as a couple and loved it from start to finish! Magnificent scenery, very comfortable boat (sit at the front for maximum thrills), a short break for swimming and aperitifs at the edge of a calanque with music on board the boat… A really great atmosphere and a wonderful time!

A fun day on the water with sunshine, fun, and beautiful views.
Such a beautiful trip on the water and in the Calanques region. The boat driver was very accommodating to all questions and requests. He was communicative in French and English and was a very knowledgeable tour guide. It was an enjoyable time, full of interesting things to see and a nice time to swim with friends.

100% recommended!
The crew was amazing and went above and beyond by speaking both French and English so that everyone could learn about the region’s history.
The views were incredible, and they provided snorkeling gear so you could explore the amazing marine life.
The trip back to shore was so much fun—they revved up the engines and let us enjoy the thrill of a speedboat!
An incredible experience!
