Description

The evening begins long before the first shots are fired. Setting sail from the port of Théoule-sur-Mer, the catamaran cruises along the Corniche d’Or and the red rocks of Trayas at sunset. Rhyolite cliffs, secluded coves, and the low-angled light glinting off the turquoise waters of the Estérel: an hour’s sail to get the evening off to a great start.

As night falls, the catamaran heads for the Bay of Cannes to secure a front-row seat facing the barges of the Cannes Fireworks Festival. Positioned out on the water, far from the crowds on the Croisette, you can enjoy the entire sound-and-light show: the explosions light up the sky, and the reflections dance across the sea.

In 2026, six evenings are scheduled: July 4, July 14, July 22, August 4, August 15, and August 24. The catamaran can accommodate up to 22 passengers on its open deck: more spacious and stable than a RIB, it can be rented out exclusively for a group for a birthday, a bachelorette party, or an evening with friends. Nighttime return to Théoule under the stars, with the illuminated coastline on the horizon.
