The experience

You board at Marina Bay of Angels at 19h20 and spend the first ten minutes getting a safety briefing and a look at the maxi-catamaran before departure. The boat then sails toward Anse de la Salis, hugging the coast of Antibes as the sun drops and the sky fills with gold and pink. The catamaran anchors in an open view of the old town's ramparts, the setting the operator calls exceptional, and stays there for roughly an hour while you decide what to do.

Snorkel kits (masks and snorkels) and paddles are on board and ready to use. Some people get in the water. Others stay on deck with a drink and watch the light shift. The crew serves a planter punch aperitif in a relaxed atmosphere, and soft drinks come from an ecological fountain. There's no pressure to be active. The moment itself is the point. At 21h00 the boat heads back to Marina Bay of Angels, arriving around 21h30.

Is this one for you?At 2 hours total, this fits into an evening without eating into the rest of your day. You're back by 21h30 and can still have dinner or a late walk afterward. The fixed timing means you commit to the sunset window itself, which is the whole reason to go.

Is this a good option if I only have a couple of hours free in the evening?

Yes, the entire outing runs 2 hours from boarding to disembarkation, so it fits into a short window. You're back at Marina Bay of Angels by 21h30, leaving the rest of your evening open.

What's the difference between Anse de la Salis and the Olivette as an anchorage?

The catamaran anchors at Anse de la Salis facing the ramparts of Antibes under normal conditions, or at the Olivette if an east wind makes that necessary. Both are described as emblematic settings, and the crew decides based on the weather on the day.

Do I need to know how to snorkel, or is this for beginners too?

The operator lists the activity as suitable for all physical fitness levels and does not require prior snorkeling experience. A professional crew is on board, and snorkel kits are provided, so beginners can participate.

Is alcohol included, and what if I don't drink?

A planter punch aperitif is served on board as part of the outing. Soft drinks are also available via an ecological drinking fountain. Alcohol is not served to anyone under 18.
