The Mediterranean · MARSEILLE BOAT TRIPS
Good boat trips in Marseille fill up weeks ahead in high season and the great ones go first. Below: the 5 to book early, what each fare covers and how they differ.
Review of Marseille’s small-group Calanques boat tour, with swimming, snorkeling, Riou Island, coastal caves, local guides, and practical tips.
“Amazing experience in the Calanques: the site is beautiful, the water extremely clean and even though the weather wasn’t at its best today the boat trip was funny and the sites still amazing. Absolutely recommended!”
Review of Marseille’s sunset cruise to Frioul, with a vegetarian buffet, Provençal wine, swimming, and a quiet electric boat.
“We loved Captain Eric! He was fabulous! The dinner was pretty tasty (vegetarian menu) and the drinks were good. The cruise is relaxing around the Friol Archipelago and then anchors for dinner and the sunset, which was pretty. Highly recommend!”
Spend seven hours aboard Le Don du Vent with Calanques views, swimming, snorkeling, a chef-made buffet, and organic wine from Marseille.
“Excellent day on the boat. The crew was extremely professional, kind, and funny! Delicious food and wine, great swimming and views. Nice balance of shade and sun on the boat, with comfy bean bags for lounging. We cut the engine and sailed when the wind cooperated, which was really special. It’s a spectacular and historic boat, too. Overall, super!”
