← All articles

August is a lively month in Cannes. For a refreshing outdoor experience, a kayak trip lets you discover the coast from a different perspective, gliding across turquoise waters.

Choose an outing that suits you

A short paddle is ideal for a first experience. To reach the Lérins Islands and have time to stop along the way, choose a half-day or full-day outing.

Discover the islands

Sainte-Marguerite appeals to nature lovers with its small coves and Mediterranean scenery. The crossing from Palm Beach takes around 15 minutes, depending on conditions.

Travel light

Remember to bring water, sun protection and suitable clothing. A waterproof container helps protect your essential belongings.

Plan ahead on busy days

In summer, it is best to plan your outing in advance. Our team can explain the available options and how to book.

August is a popular time

August brings many visitors to Cannes. Planning ahead makes it easier to choose the duration and route that suit you.

The Lérins Islands take centre stage

Sainte-Marguerite and Saint-Honorat reveal two different sides of the archipelago: coves and Fort Royal on the first, an abbey and fortified monastery on the second.

An outing suited to hot weather

Bring drinking water and sun protection. Take sensible breaks and follow the advice given at the base about the conditions on the day.

Which rental option should you choose?

One or two hours may be enough to explore the nearby coastline. For the islands, we recommend a half-day or full-day outing.

Take your time and make memories

Allow time to look around, take photographs and enjoy the scenery. A successful outing is not about covering the greatest distance.
