Perfect day out to Iles de Lerins and Theoule / Esterel Coast. One of the most special activities you can do on the French Riviera. The captain Tom had great energy and great vibes. The boat was clean and perfect for 2-4 people. The sunbathing area was large, safe, and fun. Hoa Nam also responded well to messages and told us exactly where to meet. Great host!

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 :-)
