REVIEWS · FRANCE
Every trip has one spare day and too many boats competing for it. These 4 catamaran cruises with lunch and bbq in France justify the slot, priced and timed so the decision takes minutes.
Board a spacious catamaran in Cannes’ old port for a four-hour sail to the Lérins Islands. Swim, snorkel, kayak, or paddleboard when conditions allow, then enjoy a cold buffet, rosé, and a ferry ride back from Saint-Marguerite Island.
“Such a great trip! Was the best thing we did all weekend! Would recommend getting there early to get a good spot on the boat.”
Spend four hours aboard Le Feng Shui from the Mucem, sailing toward the Frioul Archipelago and its calanques. You’ll enjoy a seasonal bio-sourced buffet, background music, one glass of wine or beer, and open-air seating on the rooftop, deck, or nets. English and French service is available.
“Sortie sympathique Repas correct Peut-être un peu trop de monde…”
Spend 8.5 hours aboard Véla, a spacious catamaran limited to 30 people, with skippers such as César and Alex. Cruise past Marseille’s limestone cliffs, swim near Riou Island, Sormiou, Morgiou, and Sugiton, and enjoy plancha lunch, rosé, snorkeling gear, wetsuits, and GoPro cameras.
