Relaxing day on water! - We had a pleasant time! Maxime is a great guide and customize the experience to your preference. We weren't so lucky with the wind and spent more time swimming and than sailing but it's up to you. Lunch spread with wine and beverages was great! I definitely recommend it and will do it again if in the area!

Exciting - Max was a true captain who guided us into safe and magnificent waters! The day was fantastic, with a visit to the islands and stops for dives in crystal clear waters! The small but very well organized boat is for two, three people plus Max. Lunch was based on local raw vegetables perfect for a light stomach navigation! Incredible the thrill of being able to pilot the sailboat in total safety. Highly recommended experience

Perfect day on the sea - A beautiful day on the sea outside of Cannes. Maxime showed us how to operate and maneuver the sailboat, and with the right wind we could really get some good speed. We also got to spend quite some hours on the Island outside of Cannes, and went diving after the sculptures with towels and diving masks from Maxime. Afterwards his local lunch was offered before we sailed back to the port. We were also allowed to use the harbour showers after diving in the salt water. A very nice experience, would definately recommend!

Beautiful day, highly recommend! - Maxime was a terrific guide, incredibly friendly and a passionate sailor. We absolutely loved this experience and couldn’t recommend it highly enough. We had the opportunity to learn to sail, explore the islands and areas around Cannes, as well as swim and snorkel at numerous spots. Maxime made great recommendations based on our interests to make the day more enjoyable. Lunch was great and the boat was really well equipped with everything we needed for the day.

Superb sailing and snorkeling day - Superb first sailing experience with Maxime. It is a local who knows the islands of Lérins as his pocket. I was able to discover another side of Cannes, close to nature. It always finds secluded corners to anchor and enjoy the seabed without too many people. He was able to make me observe the many fish around, and even an octopus! The picnic he prepares adds a unique touch of authenticity. I recommend with my eyes closed!

A day at the top - An idyllic, relaxing and friendly day. An anchovy at the top and a cart of fresh vegetables with everything you need to delight the taste buds contemplating the sea Maxime is very pleasant and above all he let us do what we wanted, according to our desires. He is passionate, it shows, and we felt safe and well! We loved it!
