The boat was great for a family of four. The engine started perfectly. The meeting arrangement was very smooth and very prompt communication. We would definitely hire from Virginie again. Thank you to Matheo for meeting us - he did a fantastic job Best regards

Met with Patrick’s son Remy who dealt with the boat. Easy and effective check-in and check-out. Very friendly with great recommendations for the trip with snorkeling at Lavezzi archipelago as the highlight - great fun for both parents and kids. The boat also had a couple of extra diving masks which was highly appreciated. The boat is a bit worn, but for anyone who is ok with that this rental is highly recommended.

"We had a very nice day in the Calanques on Henri's boat. The welcome and the return with his partner were very nice, the boat worked very well. A positive point I would add: the engine consumes fuel moderately. We were able to go through all the Calanques up to En Vau, passing by Riou - and we consumed 25L, with some speed bursts in open sea. If I had something to complain about, it's that the boat was much older and more worn by the sea than the photos suggest; they must be a few years old. It's always a bit of a bitter surprise. A somewhat detailed map of the Calanques, including depths for anchoring, would have been useful - we had to resort to using Google Maps, without network, to help us identify the Calanques. Nevertheless, I would recommend without hesitation a boat tour with Henri. The view of the Calanques in summer is truly worth it."

We had a fantastic day with Florian as skipper. He found a hidden gem of a restaurant for lunch with great ambiance and food. He showed us caves, beautiful, secluded beaches and the Lavezzi islands. Multiple stops for swimming during the day. Florian was very attentive throughout the day and a very skilled boat driver. Great rib boat. Both boat and Florian can be highly recommended.
