Baiona Marine operates from Bayonne in Nouvelle-Aquitaine, offering personalized boating experiences along the Basque coast. The company runs a selection of curated trips: a four‑hour Formule Demi‑Journée, an eight‑hour Formule Journée Complète visiting Biarritz, Guéthary and Saint‑Jean‑de‑Luz, a 2.5‑hour Formule Sunset with optional tapas, the Shelltone Whale Project for cetacean observation, and fully customizable Formule sur mesure options.
Trips depart from Bayonne and explore the Adour river estuary, coastal landmarks, and offshore hotspots such as the Capbreton Canyon. The Shelltone Whale Project sails from Bayonne between April and November with a maximum of nine guests, focusing on mindful observation of dolphins and whales in a renowned marine area.
Every offering emphasizes personalization: captains tailor routes, activities, and onboard services to guest preferences, whether the goal is fishing, relaxation, sightseeing, celebration, or wildlife watching. Group sizes and amenities vary by trip; the whale project maintains a limited guest count for an intimate experience.
