For optimal light (the famous “golden hour”), we recommend trips between June and September. At Bleu Évasion, we adjust our departure times according to the ephemeris calendar to ensure that you are facing the Frioul archipelago (or Riou in the case of a Calanques tour) at the precise moment when the sun touches the horizon.

We favor areas sheltered from the mistral or east wind, such as the Cambrettes or Crine au Frioul coves, or the Monasterio cove in Riou in the National Park. The captain chooses the spot on the day to ensure calm waters (no rolling) so that you can enjoy your buffet or aperitif without any discomfort.

Even after a day at 86°F, the temperature drops quickly on the water as soon as the sun sets. Expert tip: always bring a sweater for an evening on the boat. We also provide windbreakers on board for your comfort during the cruise if it gets cold.

It depends on the season! In June, the sun sets around 9:30 p.m., offering very long evenings. In September, it disappears before 8:00 p.m. We always adjust our departure times so that you are in the best viewing spot (often between the Château d'If and the Frioul Islands) at the precise moment when the sun touches the horizon.

Yes, swimming is possible as long as the light conditions allow it. For your safety, we strictly supervise night swimming. Our boats and catamarans are equipped with ergonomic swim ladders and freshwater showers so you can rinse off after your last swim. That's how a dream evening in Marseille begins.
