Embark on a 1-hour narrated cruise by hybrid boat to discover a site that is as iconic as it is private: the Fort de Brégançon, the holiday residence of the presidents of the French Republic. From the harbour of Bormes-les-Mimosas – La Favière, set off on a gentle and environmentally friendly exploration aboard a boat that combines thermal and electric propulsion.
Sail in one of the most beautiful bays in the world, between Cap Bénat, secret coves, and pine forests plunging into the sea. From the very first minutes, let yourself be guided by our passionate crew, who will reveal to you in their own voice (in French) the treasures of history, heritage and nature that surround this exceptional place. The commentary is also available via our audio guide on your smartphones in English, German, Dutch, and Italian.
The Fort de Brégançon, perched on its rocky islet a short distance from the shore, reveals itself from a rare angle: that of the sea. You will learn how this ancient lookout post became, over the centuries, a military fortress, a strategic site, and then a presidential resort. Without ever docking or entering the grounds, you'll enjoy a unique vantage point of the ramparts, the surrounding beaches, and the Îles d'Or on the horizon.
Beyond the fort, a whole section of the natural and historical Mediterranean is open to you. This short but intense outing is ideal for heritage lovers, families looking for accessible cultural things to do, or holidaymakers who want to experience an authentic moment at sea, far from the summer hustle and bustle.
