A day on the water from Cannes
Out on the Côte d’Azur, the day belongs to the sea: swimming stops, open water and lunch somewhere along the coast.
The coast looks better from the water.
Spend the day afloat from Cannes, with the Lérins Islands close by and the freedom to anchor wherever the water looks most inviting. Swim, explore the shoreline or simply let the boat drift for a while, with the Riviera unfolding differently from offshore.
Leave the Croisette behind.
As you pull away from Cannes, the coastline begins to change. The hotels and beach clubs recede into the distance, the water opens up and the day takes on an easier rhythm. With a skipper on board, there is nothing to navigate beyond where you would like to stop next.
Let the sea shape the itinerary.
Cruise between Sainte-Marguerite and Saint-Honorat, stopping for swims in clear coves or stepping ashore to explore the pine-covered paths. From the water, the islands offer a different perspective on the Côte d’Azur, with Cannes and the coast stretching out beyond.
Lunch tastes better after a swim.
Bring a picnic aboard and anchor somewhere quiet, or head to La Guérite on Sainte-Marguerite for a long Mediterranean lunch beside the water. Swim between courses, linger over another glass and stay out until the afternoon light begins to soften across the coast.
