Cruise Port Guide
The bucket-list things to do — and the private, expert-led way to do each.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, and the private, small-group, or expert-led way to make it yours — your own pace, real access, none of the crowd.
Slip beneath the turquoise surface of a UNESCO-listed marine park on a 4-hour private boat charter. Snorkel limestone grottos, float above posidonia meadows, and anchor in coves unreachable on foot — pure Provence at its most unspoiled.
Glide past thirteen jaw-dropping limestone inlets from the charming port of Cassis — the definitive Calanques panorama. Turquoise water, soaring white cliffs, and hidden beaches make this the region's most iconic sea journey.
Paddle your own path through the most spectacular sea cliffs in France — only a kayak gets you inside the narrowest calanques where boats cannot enter. A professional guide leads a small group through hidden grottos and onto secret pebble beaches.
Trek with a certified mountain guide along the GR98 coastal path to viewpoints that make every photographer weak at the knees. Stand on the edge of the world above Sugiton or En-Vau and stare down into water you won't believe is real.
Cruise effortlessly through the hills above Marseille on a premium e-bike, arriving at the wild Calanque de Sormiou — one of the park's most breathtaking inlets — without breaking a sweat. An insider's approach that skips the tourist trail entirely.
Descend into one of the Mediterranean's richest marine protected areas — a world of moray eels, octopus, grouper, and posidonia forests under the limestone cliffs of the Calanques. Dive the same waters that inspired Jacques Cousteau.
