"SAINT-TROPEZ AND PAMPELONNE" day trip from 10.00 to 17.00: 

Discover the unmissable Gulf of St-Tropez and the famous Pampelonne beach, fringed by turquoise waters. Go snorkelling with fins, mask and snorkel to explore the seabed around the unspoilt Sardinaux Islets, or go diving in Cannoubiers bay.

Option to have a picnic on board (not provided) or to be dropped off at Pampelonne Beach to visit a beach club restaurant;

 

Alternate between sailing, exploring the underwater world and relaxing in the sun:

Make the most of your sailing trip to admire the Var coastline and discover coves as well as secluded, unspoilt beaches. Snorkelling involves exploring the seabed with fins, a mask and a snorkel (equipment is provided); if you’d rather not explore the seabed, you can relax on the sun loungers. For lunch, you have two options: either bring your own picnic or ask to be dropped off at a restaurant.
