Departing from l'Estaque, a 3.5-hour sailing trip in Marseille's northern bay. Glide silently above the water on a magnificent, agile and comfortable catamaran. The idea is sailing with friends, and an aperitif-swimming in small group.
After a short safety briefing, we'll leave l'Estaque Maritime Shuttle Terminal under engine. Sails will be hoisted in outer harbor and the engines will be turned off. We will sail for 1 hour and a half in search of a quiet anchorage in the Archipelago of Frioul or Côte Bleue : Morgiret or Baie du Grand Soufre or La Crine, Méjean, calanque de Figuerolles, Niolon,… the captain will decide on the precise itinerary according to the weather conditions of the day and also according to the crew. At anchor : swimming, sometime cliff-jumping, aperitif and a lot of conviviality. Return to port.
Note: this is not a touristic visit to specific places but a time of navigation under sail according to the wind where slow pace, contemplation and listening are privileged. It's a unique experience on a wonderful catamaran, in a warm atmosphere and an extraordinary landscape. Your ability to wonder in the shade of the sails, the beauty of the landscapes and meeting the people on board, will make the difference. The skipper will do everything to ensure these conditions are met.

Super agréable et intéressant
C'était parfait. François était top!
magnifique!
The cruise with François was a highlight of my holidays! It was a relaxing few hours on the sea, with a stop by small islands for a swim and an apero. Everything was perfect, the boat, the captain, group of people, swim in the sea. François allowed these who wanted to learn few things about the boat, was available to answer any questions about the boat, sea, area. It was an amazing experience!
