Activity description

Learn to navigate at sea during a sailing cruise in the Calanques du Frioul in Marseille!

Come and sail on one of France's best spots, used by the world's best windsurfers! In the heart of an incredible natural environment, visit Marseille's Parc national des Calanques from a new angle aboard a sailboat during your Marseille sailing experience!

Discover the joys of sailing on a sailing trip from Marseille to the Frioul Islands! You'll benefit from favorable sailing conditions, thanks to the mistral wind characteristic of the city of Marseille. Your skipper will involve you in the ropes and, if you wish, you can even take the helm for a few moments! Feel the force of the wind and learn how to maneuver the sailboat on the waters of the Mediterranean.

Enjoy a unique half-day getaway and explore the local flora and fauna, with spectacular views of the natural landscapes and limestone cliffs typical of the Côte d'Azur.

A state-qualified skipper will be on hand to teach you the basics of sailing, and will accompany you throughout your excursion to provide advice and ensure your safety. Aboard the sailboat, you'll have access to pretty, secluded coves where you can enjoy a relaxing swim in the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean, or admire the seabed during a snorkeling experience in the middle of this Natura 2000 listed natural site.

Explore one of the most wonderful natural sites on the Côte d'Azur and contemplate its impressive panoramas on an introductory sailing tour of Marseille's calanques with Ishua!
