Exciting discoveries and adventures in Calanques

April 22th - 2024

Ahoy there, sailors! Captain Rémi here, your guide to the breathtaking Calanques National Park. Forget crowded ferries and landlocked views. Picture this: the salty breeze whips through your hair, the sun warms your skin, and the turquoise waters of the Calanques lap gently against our traditional sailboat.  That's the magic of a Cassis Calanques sailboat tour!

Our journey begins in Cassis, a charming fishing village nestled between the rocky inlets. As we set sail, we'll weave through a kaleidoscope of hidden coves, each one more stunning than the last.  Picture dramatic cliffs plunging into crystal-clear waters, secluded beaches begging for exploration, and underwater worlds teeming with colorful fish.

This isn't just a sightseeing trip, ladies and gentlemen. We'll drop anchor in secluded coves, allowing you to dive into the cool, refreshing Mediterranean. Imagine the thrill of snorkeling amongst vibrant coral reefs or the serenity of paddling in a secluded cove.

But the adventure doesn't stop there. Throughout the sail, I'll share stories and secrets of the Calanques, passed down through generations of local sailors.  You'll learn about the unique ecosystem, the fascinating history of these ancient inlets, and even spot some hidden grottoes only accessible by boat.

As a seasoned sommelier, I've carefully curated a selection of regional wines to perfectly complement our Calanques adventure.  Imagine sipping on a chilled glass of Cassis rosé, its delicate floral notes and crisp acidity refreshing your palate after a swim in a hidden cove.  Perhaps you prefer a bolder Bandol red, its earthy character echoing the rugged beauty of the cliffs.

As we sail along the coast, we'll get a glimpse of the vibrant city of Marseille from a whole new perspective.  See the iconic Notre-Dame de la Garde basilica perched on a hilltop, and marvel at the bustling port from the serenity of the sea.

Remi will have you feeling less like a client and more like your favourite cousin you haven’t seen for years. They go out of their way to ensure you have the best trip and experience things that you could only do or see with genuinely passionate local knowledge.

By the end of the day, you'll return to Cassis with a heart full of memories and a camera brimming with photos that will make your friends back home jealous. So, ditch the crowds and ordinary tours.  Join me on a sailboat adventure you won't forget - explore the hidden coves, turquoise waters, and captivating history of the Calanques National Park in style!  Set sail with me today !
