Enjoy a memorable swim in Nice on a guided sunset snorkelling excursion in the bay of Villefranche-sur-Mer!

This summer, why not decide to end your afternoon in an original way, away from the crowds on the beach and in Nice's old town, by taking part in a guided snorkelling excursion at sunset in the bay of Villefranche-sur-Mer? With its superb seabed teeming with fish, this is a popular spot for snorkelling near Nice, especially from a boat - all the more reason not to miss this guided outing!

Departing from the port of Nice, this adventure will not only give you the chance to go for a swim in quiet in a little-frequented area - especially in the early evening - while admiring the scenery on the Cap of Nice, but also the Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat peninsula under the warm colours of the setting sun. You will have nothing but advantages when you take part in this sunset snorkelling excursion in the Villefranche harbour!

On site, you will enjoy a safe launch alongside an experienced instructor who, for around 20 minutes, will take the time to guide you and show you the treasures that lurk around here (starfish, sea urchins, and even small octopuses for the lucky ones). Afterwards, you will have 25 to 30 minutes of snorkelling on your own around the boat, under the watchful eye of the guide who will be brought back on board. With a maximum of 12 participants in the snorkelling group, you will have enough space to swim in peace in your snorkelling zone in the bay of Villefranche-sur-Mer!

So if you can swim (from the age of 5), be sure to join this guided snorkelling excursion from Nice at sunset, in clear water that fluctuates between 24 and 28°C in summer!
