  • Because of their geographical location and unique climate, the Frioul Islands are home to habitats that are often poorly represented at national level, with high heritage value and in a remarkable state of conservation compared with the mainland.

Aboard our comfortable motorboats, depart Marseille's Old Port for the Frioul archipelago.

Stop off at various characteristic coves to discover the flora and fauna.

Back to the Old Port.

Depending on weather conditions, the captain reserves the right to cancel the outing for safety reasons.

 

During our sea trip, we'll be visiting some remarkable natural sites. These sites are home to a significant biodiversity of flora and fauna that is still preserved and that it is essential to protect. We will be taking care to adapt our sailing and our behaviour to preserve this environment.
