Embark on a day of escape to the wildest of the Hyères Islands: Port-Cros, Europe's first marine park. From the charming port of Bormes-les-Mimosas – La Favière, enjoy a guided crossing aboard our new-generation hybrid boat, combining thermal performance and silent electric propulsion, ideal for approaching the coast in complete discretion.
Sail comfortably close to the coves, cliffs, and protected landscapes. During the approximately 45-minute crossing, our passionate crew will share the secrets of this unique island with you. Commentary is provided in French, with written translations available on your smartphone in English, German, Dutch, and Italian.
Upon arrival, let yourself be charmed by the peaceful atmosphere of Port-Cros: here, there are no cars or bicycles, only shaded paths, remarkable flora and fauna, and unspoiled beaches. Depending on the season, you will have between 6:40 a.m. (in summer) and 7:15 a.m. (off-season) to explore the island at your own pace.
Go hiking to discover the ancient forts, relax on the south beach, or grab your flippers, mask, and snorkel to follow the underwater trail at Palud Beach. This marked trail, dotted with underwater signs, reveals a fascinating underwater world: Posidonia seagrass beds, multicoloured fish, and sometimes even the park's iconic groupers.
This excursion is for anyone looking to combine adventure, relaxation and discovery. Whether you're travelling alone, as a couple, with family or friends, enjoy an immersive and responsible experience in the heart of one of the Mediterranean's best-preserved ecosystems.
