5 reasons to visit the Calanques by boat with l’Eden Boat

The Calanques are a true Mediterranean treasure, stretching between La Ciotat, Cassis, and Marseille. With their turquoise waters, dramatic cliffs, and unique biodiversity, these magical places attract visitors from around the world. To truly experience their beauty, there’s no better way than by boat. Here are 5 reasons to choose l’Eden Boat to explore the Calanques.

1. Access the most breathtaking landscapes

Among the Calanques, En-Vau is undoubtedly the most iconic. With its towering cliffs and crystal-clear waters, this Calanque—frequently featured on TV and in magazines—offers a fairytale-like setting. By boat, you’ll have an unobstructed view of these stunning landscapes, from a perspective you can’t experience from land.

2. Reach places inaccessible by other means

Unlike hiking or other forms of access, a boat excursion allows you to visit hidden coves and secluded beaches effortlessly. Land paths can be long and tiring, but by boat, you’ll enjoy a smooth and quick journey, with the chance to see multiple Calanques in a single outing.

3. Opt for a semi-rigid boat for an authentic experience

The semi-rigid boats of l’Eden Boat provide unmatched flexibility and accessibility. Unlike yachts, which are often too large to enter narrow coves, our boats can navigate close to the cliffs and stop in pristine locations. Moreover, many yachts lack the official authorization to navigate within the Calanques National Park—a privilege proudly held by l’Eden Boat.

4. Enjoy optimal comfort on board

Our modern semi-rigid boats combine safety and conviviality. You’ll have a comfortable space to settle in, with refreshing drinks available to enhance your outing. Without the constraints of a large yacht, the experience feels closer to nature while still offering great comfort.

5. Sail with passionate professionals

The skippers of l’Eden Boat are passionate experts who know every nook and cranny of the Calanques. They’ll share anecdotes and their love for this unique region while ensuring a smooth and safe navigation. Their enthusiasm and professionalism add a personal and warm touch to your experience.
