🌴 A wonderful discovery of Sainte-Marguerite Island! I took the boat for 21 EUR and frankly, it was well worth it. The island is simply beautiful, with gorgeous landscapes and a super pleasant atmosphere. The boat staff was absolutely great, very welcoming and professional. The organization was smooth with no waiting, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The boat was also very clean and well-maintained. A great experience from start to finish. I highly recommend this trip, whether you want to enjoy the peace and quiet, the nature, or simply spend a wonderful day.

Personally, I've taken this cruise several times—alone, with friends, or with family (a simple visit, jogging, showing others around...). The instructions are clear from the booking stage (internet, app, or on-site). With multiple round-trip shuttles, the arrival time is not a problem. I recommend it 100% 😉

I particularly appreciated the punctuality of the ferry, with a very well-organized service and schedules that were perfectly respected. The crossing to the Lérins Islands was pleasant, and the crew was professional. A very nice experience, I recommend it without hesitation!

The friendliness, warm smiles, and professionalism of the crew on board. The fact that dogs are allowed on board is a real plus worth considering (at no extra charge), bravo!

The trip was pleasant and short. The island is very beautiful and has a very peaceful atmosphere. It’s the perfect place to relax and sunbathe by the water, especially since it’s so affordable. I highly recommend it—whether you’re with family, friends, or your significant other.

Step aboard a ferry to Sainte-Marguerite Island, the largest of the Lérins Islands, and explore its secluded beaches, historic Fort Royal, and the Man in the Iron Mask’s cell.

Discover tranquil forest paths, turquoise coves, and charming spots perfect for strolling or sunbathing.

Explore the natural beauty of the largest Lérins island, visit Fort Royal or try local delicacies at nearby eateries for a fulfilling experience.
