Itinerary
Departure from Port du Béal towards the Calanques de l'Estérel for a 2.5-hour exploration of secret coves and turquoise waters.
To reach the magnificent coves of the Estérel, your route will take you across Mandelieu Bay, dominated by the iconic Château de la Napoule, a true architectural jewel.
As you sail along Théoule-sur-Mer, admire the spectacular cliffs of Pointe de l'Aiguille and their secret coves, then discover two iconic sites: the Maison Bulle and the Palais Bulle, perched on the cliff. From our Black Tenders, you will also enjoy a privileged view of Port la Galère, a private and exclusive seaside resort that is usually inaccessible and can only be seen up close from the sea. The red rocks typical of the Estérel and its Mediterranean vegetation complete this unique natural setting.
As you arrive in the Estérel, the Corniche d'Or reveals its red rocks plunging into turquoise waters. Enjoy a refreshing break in a secluded cove, then let yourself be surprised by a secret cave accessible only from the sea, in the heart of this spectacular natural setting.
Cap Roux is a cape located on the French Riviera, in the Estérel massif, between Agay and Théoule-sur-Mer, near the Anthéor district of Saint-Raphaël, in the Var department. It is one of the most beautiful sites in the massif.
On your return to port, enjoy one last glimpse of the turquoise waters and unspoiled coves of the Estérel. Savor the calm of the sea and the exceptional panoramic views of the coastline before returning to port, your eyes filled with memories.

So exciting to see the coast line - dramatic and beautiful. We had a rough day so if the rock of the boat doesn’t suit you this trip would not be for you - but if you love boats then this trip is unbeatable

About Cannes
Cannes is a Riviera resort on the Mediterranean, with a palm-lined seafront, a film festival, an old hilltop quarter and ferries to the Lérins islands.
Cannes curves around a sandy bay on the French Riviera, with a wide seafront boulevard, La Croisette, lined with palm trees and grand hotels. The Palais des Festivals, near its western end, hosts the international film festival each May, and film stars' handprints are set in the pavement outside. The old quarter of Le Suquet climbs a hill above the old port, with narrow lanes, a church and a museum in a medieval castle.
Top-ranked sights in Cannes: Palais des Festivals et des Congrès, Gourdon, Île Sainte-Marguerite.
