Lionel was professional and friendly as he guided our full-day boat tour for three friends. He communicated thoughtfully before the trip and spoke English, ensuring we always felt comfortable and safe. He tailored the day to our interests, making the experience seamless and memorable. Highly recommend!

I could not rate this rental high enough - A beautiful boat, in an easy to reach location (with easy nearby parking), with amazing coast to explore nearby and a very friendly and helpful host/owner. Even with a weather related disruption to our initial date, Christophe was extremely communicative and flexible with agreeing a rescheduled date. He met us at the boat's berth, explained everything, provided and talked-through some navigation maps, piloted the boat out of it's mooring and into the main harbour channel (extremely helpful for those nervous manoeuvring around tight Mediterranean marinas) and then upon return, met us again on the main harbour channel and piloted the boat to have the boat's fuel topped-up and returned to it's marina berth. The boat was practically brand new, with lots of room for 4, more than ample power, a depth sounder and chart plotter, bimini cover and bathing ladder. Again, I could not rate both Christophe and this boat (Salpa Soleil 20) highly enough!

The whole process was very smooth and easy. Jocelyne's daughter was great at sorting out our paper work and making sure we knew where we were going. We had a great morning out on the boat - would definitely recommend getting the morning slot if you can, as when we arrived back in the afternoon there was a huge queue for people picking up their boats.

If you plan multiple stops and visiting le Iles Lerins, I recommend to go there first thing in the morning to have plenty of space and a good ankering spot. It gets very crowded around midday, especially on the weekends. the other stops like Baie de billionere, etc are good all day long. Bring snorkling gear, plenty of water, sunscreen and a long sleeve shirt. Be sure to know the speed limits around cap d'antibes, Iles Lerins and Cannes which a regularly enforced and heavily fined. Additionally there is a general speed limit of 5 knots on the 300m to shore zone, and 3 (!) knots in harbours. Have fun :-)
