2-hour ecological tour: the biodiversity of Marseille's islands

Knowing and sharing the diversity of Marseille's coastline is already a first step towards protecting ...

Head for the Frioul islands, classified as sustainable islands and part of the Parc des Calanques, for a 2-hour eco-tour by boat.

Duration : 2 h

  • WHAT ARE WE DOING? To make you, young and old, aware of the many PROTECTION and PRESERVATION issues at stake.
  • The ROLE OF HUMAIN ACTIVITY in the degradation of biodiversity: the importance of adopting eco-citizen actions on a daily basis and minimising water, soil and air pollution;
  • TAKE ACTION to ensure that water-based activities have as LITTLE IMPACT AS POSSIBLE on the marine and terrestrial environments: protect the Posidonia meadow by limiting the impact of moorings, respect marked paths, avoid noise pollution …
  • The consequences of CLIMATE CHANGE, which is changing the living conditions of species;
  • COMBATING the introduction of invasive alien species;
    The SUCCESS of the artificial reefs in Prado Bay
  • Because of their geographical location and unique climate, the Frioul Islands are home to habitats that are often poorly represented at national level, with high heritage value and in a remarkable state of conservation compared with the mainland.

On the programme

Aboard our comfortable motorboats, depart Marseille's Old Port for the Frioul archipelago.

Stop off at various characteristic coves to discover the flora and fauna.

Back to the Old Port.

Depending on weather conditions, the captain reserves the right to cancel the outing for safety reasons.

 

During our sea trip, we'll be visiting some remarkable natural sites. These sites are home to a significant biodiversity of flora and fauna that is still preserved and that it is essential to protect. We will be taking care to adapt our sailing and our behaviour to preserve this environment.

LYNDA

An enjoyable time on the ocean

Commenté le 18/07/2024

Really enjoyed this tour. From booking to the trip all went smoothly. We were very lucky to see the Olympic sailing teams practising, such an added bonus. Would recommend and as only a small boat more personal.
