The skipper

Come aboard with Olivier - Destination Cote d'Azur - Corsica for a sailboat cruise

What is your motto ?

To make you love the sea.

How did you come to do this job?

Olivier: In 2011, I bought a sailboat in Turkey with a friend and we sailed it to Reunion Island (Turkey - Italy - France - Spain - Canary Islands - Cape Verde - Brazil - South Africa - Reunion Island). It was from this trip that my desire to become a skipper was born. Béatrice: I grew up in Sète and discovered light sailing as a teenager. I then went on to sail pleasure yachts. In 2020, we decided to train to become professional sailors at the maritime colleges in Sète and La Rochelle.

What people say about you?

We are welcoming, smiling, attentive and professional.

To know about you, apart from your job?

We lived for many years in La Réunion and Madagascar, and now we live in Sète. In the end, we've always lived on islands and in touch with the sea. That's probably where our passion was born, a passion we'd like to share with you today.

Life on a journey

Your best memory ?

On a crossing to Corsica, we came across a group of sperm whales. It was magical. The emotion was palpable on the boat. Crew and passengers were excited, moved and dazzled.

For you, what is a successful sea trip?

When passengers marvel at the beauty of the sea, when they forget about their lives on land, when they disconnect from their daily lives, we think the cruise is going well. And when they step off the ship with blue in their eyes, memories and emotions in their hearts, and an irresistible desire to set sail again, we think the cruise has been a success.

Your style of practice?

Our cruises are an opportunity to discover the beauty of the Mediterranean. We invite our passengers to take their time, contemplate the sea, let themselves be rocked by the waves and dive into the blue. Our professional crew takes care of everything.
