Crystal-clear water, dramatic cliffs, hidden coves, and colorful harbors come together on one of the most enjoyable boat excursions available from Nice. This tour offers a different perspective of the French Riviera, revealing landscapes that are often missed by travelers who stay on land.
Departing from Port Lympia in Nice, this small-group boat tour follows the coastline toward some of the Riviera's most beautiful locations, including Èze, Beaulieu-sur-Mer, Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, and Villefranche-sur-Mer.
The highlight is a stop at the famous Mala Caves, where turquoise water and steep limestone cliffs create one of the most spectacular swimming and snorkeling spots on the Côte d’Azur. Masks and snorkels are provided, allowing you to explore the clear Mediterranean waters before continuing along the coast.
The tour also includes free time in Villefranche-sur-Mer, one of the Riviera's prettiest seaside towns. Wander through colorful streets, enjoy a drink by the harbor, or simply soak up the atmosphere before returning to Nice by boat.
With small group sizes, commentary from local guides, and stunning coastal scenery throughout, this experience combines sightseeing, swimming, and relaxation into a single outing.
👉 Local Tip: Bring a waterproof phone pouch. The views of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat and the Mala coastline are some of the most photogenic you'll find anywhere on the French Riviera.
