Catamaran trips in the Var region – Departing from Fréjus

Planning a holiday in the Var and looking for a catamaran trip? You've come to the right place. From Fréjus, halfway between Saint-Raphaël and Cannes, we organize catamaran excursions to the most beautiful natural sites in the department: the red calanques of the Estérel, the turquoise gulf of Saint-Tropez and its three Caps, and the crystal-clear waters of the Lérins Islands.


The Var coastline stretches over 430 kilometers between Bandol and Théoule-sur-Mer. A coast that only truly reveals itself from the sea — and that's exactly what we offer: privileged access to its most spectacular sites, in a small group, aboard a modern catamaran with a professional skipper.

Why is Fréjus the best catamaran base in the Var?

The Var is a large department. You can stay in Toulon, Saint-Tropez, Hyères or in the hinterland, and choosing a nautical service provider is not always easy.

Here's why Fréjus is the ideal starting point for a catamaran trip in the Var region:

📍 Central location on the French Riviera

Fréjus is halfway between Cannes (35 km) and Saint-Tropez (30 km). From this central point, all the major destinations of the Var coast are accessible in less than 2 hours by boat.

🚗 Accessible from all over the Var region

The port of Fréjus is 35 minutes from Cannes, 30 minutes from Saint-Tropez, 45 minutes from Draguignan, 1 hour 15 minutes from Toulon — and directly accessible from the A8. Parking available at the port.

🔴 Direct access to the Estérel

The Esterel Massif, one of the most spectacular coastlines in France, begins a 20-minute boat trip from the port of Fréjus. No other base in the Var region offers such direct access.

🌊 Two seas for the price of one

From Fréjus, the catamaran can sail both east (Estérel, Cannes, Lérins) and west (Cap Taillat, Saint-Tropez, Ramatuelle). The choice is unique in the Var.

Our catamaran trips departing from Fréjus — 30 minutes from Cannes

From the port of Fréjus, our catamaran offers 5 exclusive packages to the most beautiful natural sites of the French Riviera. Maximum 22 passengers, all inclusive, professional skipper.

The Var is among the richest maritime departments in France. Its coast, which extends from Bandol in the west to Théoule-sur-Mer in the east, presents an exceptional diversity of landscapes: limestone calanques of the Hyères islands, cork oak forests of the Maures which descend to the sea, red volcanic rocks of the Estérel, natural harbors like those of Saint-Tropez or Fréjus.

The Estérel — the red jewel of the Var

Between Fréjus to the east and Saint-Raphaël, the Esterel Massif offers one of the most spectacular coastal panoramas in the Mediterranean. Its rhyolite rocks, a volcanic rock 250 million years old, have taken on a characteristic blood-red hue that contrasts with the deep blue of the sea. This coastline is classified as a Natura 2000 site and is one of the few coastal areas in France where no road runs directly along the sea. As a result, its calanques (rocky inlets) are only accessible on foot (coastal hiking) or by sea, by catamaran from Fréjus.

The Gulf of Saint-Tropez — mythical and unspoiled

West of Fréjus, the Gulf of Saint-Tropez opens onto a natural harbor protected by the Saint-Tropez peninsula and the three capes (Camarat, Taillat, and Lardier). Cap Taillat, at the tip of the peninsula, is one of the few places on the French Riviera where you can find turquoise waters and a white sandy bottom worthy of the Caribbean—without having to cross the Atlantic. It's the destination of our 3 Caps Day Trip, a 1.5-hour sail from Fréjus.


The Lérins Islands — accessible by catamaran from Fréjus

A 45-minute boat trip east from Fréjus, the Lérins archipelago comprises two unspoiled islands: Sainte-Marguerite (with its famous fort where the Man in the Iron Mask was imprisoned) and Saint-Honorat (home to a working Cistercian monastery, producing wines and liqueurs). Their waters are among the clearest and most pristine on the entire French Riviera. Our Estérel & Lérins day trip combines these two destinations in a single excursion.

An eco-friendly catamaran trip

  • We favour sailing and limit the use of engines to reduce noise and polluting emissions that could affect wildlife and flora.

  • We reduce plastic consumption , which is one of the main causes of marine pollution, by simply removing it from our excursions.

  • We sort and recycle our waste.

  • Sailing offers a peaceful and moderate-speed exploration that has less impact on marine ecosystems.

The best memory of our holiday on the French Riviera
We chartered the catamaran for a hen party and everything was perfect. The organization was seamless, the crew professional and incredibly friendly. Drinks, music, sunset… everything came together for an unforgettable experience. It's nothing like the crowded boats; here you can truly relax and enjoy the atmosphere. We'd do it again in a heartbeat!

4) Is it possible to go on a catamaran trip in the Var region with children?

Absolutely. Our catamaran is perfectly suited for families. Its stability (twin hulls) eliminates the risk of seasickness, even for the youngest passengers. The forward trampolines and swimming stops in calm coves delight children. We welcome children from a very young age—contact us for toddlers (under 3 years old) so we can tailor the itinerary accordingly.

5) What is the best time for a catamaran trip in the Var region?

Our catamaran trips in the Var region are available from early April to mid-October. The high season (June-September) offers the best conditions: warm seas (22-28°C in summer), long days, and stable weather. September is our recommended period: the sea is still warm, the coves are less crowded, and the prices are lower. Book 3 to 5 weeks in advance for trips in July and August.
