Sail from Marseille to the Frioul Calanques, learn the ropes, swim, snorkel, and enjoy a small-group Mediterranean afternoon.

“This was by far the highlight of our trip! Julian was the best! He not only took great care of us during a windy day (which made this mom nervous!) but he did it with compassion and humor! The kids were able to help raise the sails and drive the boat, plus have fun swimming and snorkeling in the cove. Bring cash in case the ice cream boat is out in the cove! Julian was full of knowledge about the Marseille area and answered all of our questions about the islands and buildings that surrounded us. Also gave great local recommendations which we will need to come back and try…”
