Set sail aboard "La Flâneuse", a traditional tartane (a local historic sailing vessel). Accompanied by experienced captains, discover Marseille from the sea as you sail toward the gems of the Marseille coastline and the Frioul Islands (part of the Calanques National Park).
You will sail around the Château d'If—made famous by the novel *The Count of Monte Cristo*—and explore the coves of the Frioul Islands. On board, you can relax in comfort, enjoying the many beanbags and cushions crafted from the boat's old sails.
During the voyage, the boat will anchor in a cove, giving you time to enjoy a coffee or a cold drink. You can even taste the traditional Provençal lemon syrup known as "PAC."
Swimming is possible during the stop. Masks and snorkels are available aboard to explore the area around the boat while snorkeling.
