Boat rental

Boat rental in Cannes

Boat rental is the simplest, most accessible way onto the water — a day-boat or smaller motorboat for a single day, with or without a skipper. Where a full charter is a considered, crewed affair, a boat rental is direct: a fast hull, the coast in front of you, and a swim off the Îles de Lérins within reach of the morning.

Who it suits

Couples, small families and friends who want a day rather than a week start here. There is no overnight and no large crew — just an easy day on the water. A rented day-boat is often the first step before a longer crewed charter, a way to learn the coast and the rhythm of a day afloat.

With or without a skipper

Most rentals on the Côte d'Azur come with a skipper who knows the coast — where to anchor for the calmest water, which cove is quiet that day, how to time the run to Lérins and back. Sun pads, a swim ladder and a cooler are standard, and the experience is relaxed and unfussy from the moment you step aboard.

Priced for the day, by quote

Boat rental is offered by quote for the day, set by the boat and the season. Weekends and the summer months are busiest, so popular dates are worth booking ahead. Tell us the date, your group size and whether you want to reach Lérins or simply stay close to the Bay of Cannes, and we will match the right boat.

Simple, honest, by the day

Boat rental is meant to be easy, so we keep it that way: a clear day rate, a skipper who handles everything afloat, and no surprises. We will tell you honestly when the sea is better suited to staying near the bay than pushing along the coast, and when a calmer day means a more comfortable trip for young children. If a rental turns out not to be enough for what you have in mind, we will say so and point you toward a proper crewed charter instead — the right boat for the day matters more than the booking.
