Description
Board from the Mucem for a morning catamaran cruise tour to Château d'If and the Frioul Islands.
After being welcomed by the crew, leave the Mucem basin and admire Marseille from the sea. Enjoy privileged views of Fort Saint-Jean, the Cathedrale de la Major, the Pharo Palace and Notre-Dame de la Garde.
Continue sailing toward the famous Château d'If, a fortress made world-famous by Alexandre Dumas's The Count of Monte Cristo. The crew will share some anecdotes with you about the history of Marseille, its harbor and the sites you see during the crossing.
The catamaran will then head to the Frioul Islands, which include Pomègues and Ratonneau. Marvel at their limestone cliffs, wild coves and amazingly clear waters.
The captain will drop anchor in a sheltered cove, chosen according to the wind, sea conditions and how busy it is.
During the anchorage, enjoy a swimming stop to swim and relax in the waters of the Frioul Islands. Two stand-up paddleboards, as well as masks and snorkels, are available on board to explore the area and observe the seabed.
You can also relax on the sun loungers or in the shaded areas of the catamaran. The boat has benches, toilets, a shower, and a ladder for easy access to the sea.
You will also enjoy a snack on board.
Then sail back to Marseille and enjoy one last view of the city from the sea before returning to Mucem.
The entire experience takes place onboard the catamaran. No disembarkation or stopover in a harbor is planned.
The route and anchorage location may be adjusted by the captain depending on weather and sea conditions.
