A wake of salt and sunlight parts behind the hull as you push off Cannes' harbour. The Mediterranean nudges the boat gently; wind fills the sails if Aeolus agrees, and the Lérins Islands grow from a blue smear to stone and green—chalk cliffs, low pine stands, and a medieval silhouette on Saint-Honorat.

A wake of salt and sunlight parts behind the hull as you push off Cannes' harbour. The Mediterranean nudges the boat gently; wind fills the sails if Aeolus agrees, and the Lérins Islands grow from a blue smear to stone and green—chalk cliffs, low pine stands, and a medieval silhouette on Saint-Honorat.
These two islands have worn many faces: Roman-era waypoints, a monastic refuge from the 5th century on Saint-Honorat, and a fortified prison on Sainte-Marguerite that once held captives known across Europe. Beneath the surface, Posidonia meadows nurse small fish and draw clear water that invites mask-and-snorkel exploration near shallow reefs.
Expect a relaxed, family-friendly pace. Your skipper, a former merchant-marine officer, handles navigation and safety while sharing local seamanship tips and the micro-history of coves and chapels. You can try steering under guidance, paddle to a hidden cove, or slip into the sea where the underwater topography changes from sandy shallows to rocky reefs.
Practical guidance: meet at the Port de Cannes early to avoid midday crowds; bring reef-safe sunscreen and a light windbreaker for the open sea. Snorkel masks and paddleboards are supplied; bring a swimsuit and quick-dry towel. If you’re prone to seasickness, time your trip for calmer morning hours and moderate your meals beforehand.
The outing is ideal for casual sailors and first-time snorkelers—it's short enough for a half-day escape but rich in coastal geology, maritime history, and simple, seaworthy pleasures.
