Massif de l'Esterel Excursion by Boat

About this experience

Massif de l'Esterel Excursion by Boat This ticket secures your place on a 2.5-hour coastal excursion departing from Cannes marina aboard the operator's comfortable 12-seater semi-rigid boat, fitted with dedicated jockey seats. The route takes small groups out to explore the dramatic red cliffs and hidden coves of the Massif de l'Esterel, a rugged stretch of coastline accessible only by water. Your local captain leads the journey, providing live commentary in English and French as the boat cruises past towering volcanic rock formations, secluded sea caves, and crystal-clear natural pools. The striking contrast between the red Esterel cliffs and the turquoise Mediterranean creates spectacular photo opportunities throughout. Along the route, the captain points out notable architecture including Maison Lacoste and the famous Bubbles' Palace as the excursion heads towards Cap Roux. The outing includes a swimming stop at a calm, scenic location where guests may take a refreshing dip in the Mediterranean or simply relax on board while enjoying the coastal views.
