You’ll have to drive/taxi to a pickup spot outside of the Marseille port and you won’t be able to go south along the coast of Marseille, only north, as boat rental companies don’t have access to these areas.

We had a wonderful day. There wasn’t much wind but that meant excellent swimming conditions which took full advantage of. Chris’s lunch was superb. Charlie and Chris are really good company and we would not hesitate to go out with them again.

Great day, visited some cool spots! Definitely a highlight of the trip. Only things I wish I knew beforehand were that you can’t go south of Marseille and can’t be picked up directly in the port of Marseille as rental boats don’t have the license to visit these areas…but still an amazing time. Would highly recommend!
