Practical information
On board the Don du Vent, a German-built KFK, set off from Marseille for a 7-hour sailing cruise in the Calanques.
The perfect opportunity to combine a relaxing moment with a discovery cruise, under sail, in Marseille's Calanques park. During your trip aboard the Don du Vent, you'll enjoy a privileged view of the Palais du Pharo, Fort Saint-Jean and the Bonne Mère... from a traditional sailing boat, which has been awarded the Bateau d'Interêt Patrimonial label.
This sailing boat, built in the 1940s, and its crew are renowned in Marseilles for their professionalism, good humour and above all... the passion with which they pass on their love of traditional sailing in the Mediterranean during each sailing cruise in the creeks of Marseille.
