From the Vieux-Port de Cannes, Plongée Club de Cannes offers a guided 3-hour snorkelling trip around the Lérins Islands. The idea is to board without bringing your own equipment, reach a suitable area around Sainte-Marguerite or Saint-Honorat, then explore the shallow seabed with fins, mask and snorkel under an instructor's guidance.
How does the trip to the Lérins Islands work?
The centre offers two departures a day, morning and afternoon. Wetsuit, fins, mask and snorkel are provided. Supervision allows the snorkelling trip to be adapted to the day's conditions and participants' abilities, with equipment also available for children.
How much does snorkelling in Cannes cost in 2026?
The Lérins Tour costs €35 per person in 2026 for a three-hour trip. Private boat hire is also available for groups, with a stated capacity of up to 35 people for this option.
What can you discover around Lérins?
The outing allows you to explore the archipelago's coastal seabed from the sea rather than from a beach in Cannes. Depending on sea conditions and the chosen programme, the boat heads to a suitable area around the two islands to observe Mediterranean fauna and flora.
What to know before visiting
The exact site cannot be guaranteed in advance: it depends on navigation and swimming conditions. This is worth bearing in mind if you also plan to visit Sainte-Marguerite or Saint-Honorat on land that day.
The extra touch
Departing directly from the Vieux-Port turns a simple swim with mask and snorkel into a proper sea excursion around the Lérins archipelago, without having to arrange the crossing and equipment yourself.
