★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 266 reviews · 3 hours · from $76

Sail the Côte d’Azur by catamaran, swim in clear Mediterranean water, and use kayaks and paddles during this relaxed three-hour cruise.

“We had an amazing time! Ryan and Clemen made sure we had a great trip, they answered all our questions, helped wherever they could and were super accommodating. There was free fruit and two whole pitchers of punch (which meant many refills haha). The only problem we had was at the very beginning, where we weren’t sure where our starting point was. The message we got (which was only in french, so we used a translator) said to go to the office, which we couldn’t find. Maybe something was lost in translation. The pink catamaran in the port was impossible to miss though, so we went there and some staff…”

Nice : Sunset at sea on a Maxi Catamaran – Villefranche Bay

8.Sunset at sea on a Maxi Catamaran – Villefranche Bay

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 235 reviews · 2 hours · from $81

Review of Nice’s two-hour sunset catamaran to Villefranche Bay, with swimming, paddleboarding, music, drinks, and practical booking tips.

“Pretty good experience overall, the team’s hospitality was great, was nice to have some free snacks and drinks and the opportunity for a swim stop. However I think the capacity of the group needs to be reduced a bit as there was literally nowhere to sit for the whole 2hr duration. Sadly we got heavily overcast weather which obviously wasn’t the activity provider’s fault, but even if it had been under a clear sky, there wouldn’t have been any sight of a sunset as we were in Villefranche bay at the time surrounded by hills. But overall it was pretty good, just wish it wasn’t so packed onboard!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 214 reviews · 4 hours · from $135

Review of Cannes’ half-day catamaran cruise, with swimming, snorkeling, lunch, rosé, practical tips, costs, and ferry details.

“Wow, I can't say enough great things about this excursion. We booked this not knowing how we would like it. Luckily, we went out on a week day and there were only a few other people on board. Everyone went to the front, so we had the whole back of the boat to ourselves. It was so nice! They had a gorgeous lunch on board for us. We sipped rose and swam behind the boat. They even had kayaks and paddle boards to try. Overall, it was a first class experience. We could not have been happier. The captain and his crew were a perfect 10.”

Spend eight hours aboard an eco-friendly catamaran from Marseille’s Old Port, with Calanques views, swimming, paddling, lunch, and drinks included.

“Great day trip out of Marseille of sun, sea, food and sites around the Calanques national park coastline. Couldn't have asked for a better way to relax and be looked after by the crew on the luxurious catamaran Samba and take in the sites. Take a swim in the beautiful clear waters, paddle board at one the picturesque anchorages, and soak up the sun on the yacht's bow cargo net, sunbeds on the top deck, or under shade on the main deck! Great way to prepare for dinner and a night out in Marseille. We will be back for more please!!”
