What to expect

Come aboard La Flâneuse, a traditional tartane (old local sailing ship), for a sailing trip. Accompanied by experienced captains, discover Marseille from the sea. Let yourself be carried away by the wind to the jewels of the Marseille area and the Frioul Islands (Calanques National Park).

You will sail around the Château d'If (famous from the novel The Count of Monte Cristo) and explore the calanques of the Frioul Islands. On board, you will enjoy the comfort of La Flâneuse with its many pouffes and cushions made from the boat's old sails.

During the trip, there will be a break at anchor in one of the calanques. You will have the opportunity to enjoy a coffee and a tasting of typical lemon syrup from Provence: PAC. Swimming is possible during the trip. Masks and snorkels are available on board to explore the boat's surroundings.

The exact sailing schedule for the day depends on the weather and may be adjusted as necessary.
