Your cruise
Enjoy a day of sailing initiation and improvement in the Golden Islands with Alexandre, your professional skipper, and his cat Léon, departing from the port of Hyères.
Your possible stops during this cruise
the itinerary depends on weather conditions, your wishes and those of the skipper.
Your skipper will be waiting for you at 9 a.m. in the port of Hyères to start your day of sailing initiation and improvement in the Golden Islands.
During the day, you'll have the opportunity to sail towards Port-Cros or Porquerolles.
Port-Cros: This is the wildest and most unspoiled of the Golden Isles. Considered a national park since 1963, it boasts a rich flora and fauna. The island's crystal-clear waters are home to many species of magnificent multicolored fish, as well as rare birds that can be seen on the cliffs.
Porquerolles: Here you can discover a number of magnificent calanques sheltered by the island's cliffs. There are beaches of fine sand and turquoise waters, as well as magnificent coastal walks. In the center of the island, you'll discover cultivated plains and the island's botanical conservatory with its plant collections.
After an unforgettable day, you'll be back at the port of Hyères at around 6pm.

An unforgettable day! A REAL initiation course on a sailboat. Learning and discovery of place guaranteed. We stopped on the island of Port Cros after having made the crossing then we returned under a magnificent sun! We had an optimal weather which allowed us to maneuver together by taking the time to explain me a maximum of things. I was like a kid! The meal was done on board, without pressure, always in a good mood. I will surely do a day like this again to perfect what I learned! I highly recommend it.
Alexandre is very pedagogical, patient and likes to share his passion for sailing. He has a lot of experience and you can feel it when he talks about it and directs the operations on board. A great person to spend a good time with.
