Overview

Let yourself be carried... It’s time for relaxation.

Board our maxi-catamarans for an afternoon at sea under the sign of relaxation, between grandiose landscapes and idyllic anchorage in the heart of the red rocks of the Esterel.

Along the coast, the landscapes pass in front of you: Cap Dramont, Bay of Agay, wild coves, to a preserved creek between Cap Roux and the viaduct of Anthéor where the catamaran anchors. Here, no imposed program: you choose. Paddle, snorkel... or just lazing. An aperitif (punch planter) is served on board.

Sailing then continues quietly, with a passage through the smugglers’ cove and the emblematic Golden Island, this rock that inspired Hergé for “The Black Island” in the adventures of Tintin.

Everything is included: sailing, crew, anchorage, paddles, snorkeling, soft drinks and aperitif (punch planter). Nothing to add on board: just enjoy the moment.

Beautiful tour along the coast from Saint Raphaël to the viaduct in Agay. Beautiful bay and you have enough time to bathe and snorkel. Nice chilled music on board, very nice crew and a great atmosphere. Recommended!

Beautiful scenery, Disappointing service

bteissier, Aug 2025

We booked this excursion on the recommendation of the Saint-Raphaël tourist office, as it was presented as suitable for young children. The outing began well with beautiful scenery, but unfortunately ended very poorly. On the return journey (about an hour), the crew played music at an extremely high volume, more like a nightclub than a family outing. It was unbearable and clearly harmful for children; several parents were covering their kids’ and babies’ ears. Despite politely asking two different crew members to lower the volume, both said it was “not possible” because a party atmosphere was “part of the package.” Nowhere was this excursion described as a “boat party,” and it would have been entirely possible to create a lively atmosphere at a reasonable volume. This was a huge disappointment, and I cannot recommend it for families with young children. To make matters worse, when I later posted my feedback on their social media (taking the time to write in French), they simply deleted it rather than respond, further showing a lack of respect toward customers. The scenery itself was stunning, and I do recommend taking a boat excursion in the area — but with a different company if traveling with small children.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We are truly sorry to read that your experience did not meet your expectations. While we are delighted you enjoyed the beauty of the scenery, we regret that the atmosphere on the return journey was not suitable for you and your family. Please be assured that the vast majority of our passengers are families with children, and our excursions are not sold nor intended as “boat parties.” Your feedback is important, and we will of course pass this on to our team in order to make the necessary adjustments and ensure the atmosphere on board remains enjoyable for everyone. We sincerely hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again in the future, under conditions that will fully meet your expectations.

The boat is great,...

ANNESOPHIE_P, Aug 2025

The boat is great, the crew very friendly. It's honest in terms of price/presta... sweet afternoon. The other passengers not really regular about turning the spaces to land, as often each for his apple which mitigates a bit the very pleasant side! But not disappointed!
