Description
Between Nice and Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, there are only a few kilometers. By sea, it's another world. On board our semi-rigid boats, you'll cruise along a coast that cars never see: the Legendary Villas of the Cape views from the water, the Hidden coves of Passable, fine sand coves nestled between rocks and accessible only by boat.
Your local captain shares the story of this exceptional cape: the villas of the Rothschilds, of Cocteau, the properties of royalty, while guiding you to the most pristine swimming spots on the Riviera.
The Town Hall of Villefranche-sur-Mer, one of the deepest in the Mediterranean, offers exceptionally clear waters, ideal for snorkeling. A moment of absolute serenity, just minutes from the hustle and bustle of the Promenade des Anglais.
Limited to 12 passengers, in the afternoon or at sunset depending on the chosen departure time.
The highlights of our Nice to Saint Jean Cap Ferrat Boat Trip
From Port Lympia, Cap Ferrat reveals itself in a way cars can never see it: the villas of Rothschild, Cocteau, and royalty, viewed from the sea. The bay of Villefranche-sur-Mer, one of the deepest in the Mediterranean, stretches out beneath the hull: translucent waters, rocky bottom, unreal color.
Swimming breaks are planned in the coves of Passable and the wild inlets surrounding Pointe Saint-Hospice, inaccessible from land. Crystal clear waters, ideal seabeds for snorkeling, absolute tranquility. The most preserved spots on the Riviera, reserved for those who arrive by water.
The outbound or return navigation along Beaulieu-sur-Mer and its golden beaches, then the Bay of Angels as you approach Nice. Your captain shares the history of each villa, each cape, each cove. Maximum 12 passengers for access to the most secret anchorages.
We advise arriving 30 minutes early at Port Lympia in Nice due to traffic and parking difficulties near the sea. If the departure is missed, the ticket is neither exchangeable nor refundable.
We reserve the right to postpone or cancel the activity in case of unfavorable weather conditions.
The captain reserves the right to modify or shorten the excursion in case of unfavorable weather or inappropriate passenger behavior that compromises onboard safety. This will not be grounds for a claim for compensation, refund, or rescheduling.

The excursion departs from Port Lympia in Nice, berth G04. The crossing to the bay of Villefranche and the coves of Cap-Ferrat takes approximately 20 to 30 minutes of sailing, depending on conditions.
We sail along the private coves and wild inlets surrounding the cape: intensely blue waters, legendary villas glimpsed from the sea, plunging cliffs. Swimming stops are planned in coves inaccessible from land, where the water is clearest.
The Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat excursion stays on the coast between Nice and Beaulieu-sur-Mer, with a shorter cruise focused on the cap's coves. The Monaco excursion continues to the principality, passing by Èze-sur-Mer: longer, more destinations. Both depart from Port Lympia.
