Glide from Cannes' Old Port to the Lérins Islands on a private evening cruise. Enjoy swims, snorkel gear, sunset views and island history on a relaxed three-hour outing.
A late-afternoon breeze lifts off the Croisette as the private boat slips past the old port's stone piers. Light on the water catches the hull and the skipper trims a course toward the Lérins Islands, where limestone coasts and low pine canopies meet the Mediterranean. The trip runs roughly 18:30–21:30, giving a three-hour window to watch the light shift from gold to dusk.

A late-afternoon breeze lifts off the Croisette as the private boat slips past the old port's stone piers. Light on the water catches the hull and the skipper trims a course toward the Lérins Islands, where limestone coasts and low pine canopies meet the Mediterranean. The trip runs roughly 18:30–21:30, giving a three-hour window to watch the light shift from gold to dusk.
The Lérins ensemble comprises Sainte-Marguerite — known for the 17th‑century Fort Royal and the Man in the Iron Mask legend — and Saint-Honorat, home to a 5th‑century monastery and a working monastic winery. Geologically, both islands are coastal limestone platforms with shallow reefs and patches of Posidonia seagrass that support Mediterranean life. Culturally, evenings here carry a slower rhythm: fishermen's markers, monastery bells and small beaches where locals come to swim after work.
Practical guidance is straightforward. The quay at Esplanade Pantiero is easily reached from central Cannes; parking and public transport are nearby. Masks and snorkels are provided, but bring footwear that grips wet decks, a light jacket for sea breezes and cash for the skipper fee (paid on the day). Expect uneven boarding and short wades if you hop off to swim; this excursion is not suitable for those with significant mobility limits or children under three.
Timing matters: arrive early to load provisions, aim for clear weather to maximize visibility, and respect no‑anchor zones to protect seagrass beds. The evening cruise is simple, social and marine-focused — a relaxed way to see two contrasting islands as the coastline slips into night.
No — an extra €200 skipper fee is charged on the day of the excursion and should be paid directly to the skipper.
Yes — guests are asked to bring their own food and beverages for the evening; the boat provides seating and table space.
Children are permitted but the experience is not suitable for children under 3 years; discuss specifics with the operator when booking.
The operator cancels for severe weather and a full refund is available if the trip is canceled at least 24 hours in advance; confirm policies when booking.
