Explore the legendary Lérins Islands on an immersive expedition combining kayaking, history, wilderness, and snorkelling, just a stone's throw from Cannes.
You'll meet your guide on the golden sands of Palm Beach, where you'll embark on a gentle and safe kayak crossing to Sainte-Marguerite Island, one of the pearls of the French Riviera.
Once on the island, it's time to explore on foot: a walk through the eucalyptus and maritime pine forests leads you to Fort Royal, the former prison of the Man in the Iron Mask. Your live guide will tell you about the mysteries of this place steeped in history.
Afterwards, you will have free time to:
• Swim in protected and uncrowded coves,
• Snorkel around the Cannes Underwater Ecomuseum, which is accessible even to beginners,
• Observe the local wildlife (peacocks, seabirds, fish) in an unspoiled environment.
A gourmet, artisanal picnic is served on a hidden beach (if you choose the option at an additional cost). The place is perfect for resting, enjoying the moment, laughing together, and sunbathing, lulled by the lapping of the waves (morning option 10 am - 2 pm), with a view of the turquoise waters and the red peaks of the Estérel.
Around 7 pm (afternoon option), a festive aperitif (cured meats, French cheeses, homemade hummus, fresh vegetables, etc.) awaits you to conclude this magical moment (if you choose the additional option) before slowly returning to the sea, following the golden light of the afternoon to return to Cannes
Every metre travelled offers a new vantage point. Each group creates its own adventure. Whether you are a couple, with friends, or with family, it is an unforgettable sensory experience, where gentle sport, magnificent landscapes, paradisiacal swimming, and marine discoveries blend perfectly.
Please note: This tour is physically demanding. It takes place on the open sea, under the sun with glare, and requires a good level of fitness. It is a pre-requisite that you know how to swim and be comfortable in a kayak. Bring sun cream, a hat, sunglasses, and enough water to stay hydrated throughout the tour. Make sure you are rested and ready to face the heat and exertion to get the most out of this experience.
