How can I hire a boat in the Calanques?
Skippered boat hired
If you don’t have a boating licence, or if you simply want to enjoy a trip out to sea in Marseille without having to worry about a thing, book your boat hire in the calanques with an experienced skipper who is passionate about sailing! He’ll be able to take you to some magnificent and sometimes secret spots, and tell you all sorts of anecdotes about the city of Marseille. If you hire a boat for a day or half-day, this is the best way to visit Marseille’s coastline.
Have you booked dinner at a restaurant nestling in the heart of the calanques? We can take you there too, thanks to our boat hire in the calanques!
Boat hire without a skipper
Do you prefer to sail on your own and have a boating licence? Enjoy a day on a boat in the calanques with friends or family, at your own pace. As Marseille’s calanques are part of a highly protected National Park, you will be given instructions on how to respect the environment in which you will be sailing.
