About this tour
Glide along the French Riviera coastline aboard a silent, solar-powered vessel piloting out from Beaulieu for two hours. This private tour whisks you past grand villas and superyachts moored in crystalline shallows, steered by an experienced captain. The boat's zero-emission design means no engine noise or petrol fumes—just you, the sea, and uninterrupted views. Swim in summer or wrap up warmly in winter; the tour suits all fitness levels and works well for families.

What to expect
You'll board at Beaulieu and spend two unhurried hours drifting past millionaires' residences and anchored yachts. The captain navigates shallow bays where the water's clarity is striking. Expect gentle conversation and the occasional silence—that's the boat's greatest feature. In warmer months, you can jump in with a foam noodle; winter cruising means layering up on deck. The cork surface keeps the boat light and elegant, so shoes typically stay stowed.
Good to know
Beaulieu is accessible by bus and train from Nice. Bring sun protection in summer, warm layers in winter. The boat operates weather-dependent; rough seas mean no snacks or drinks on deck. Towels aren't provided, so pack one if you plan to swim. Parents supervise children throughout.
