Select participants and date
The engine settles into a steady hum and the marina glass scatters gold across the Pershing 45’s polished deck as the coastline of Saint‑Tropez slides into view. For eight hours you trade streets and crowds for a private corridor of turquoise: sheer cliffs that dare you to jump, sandbars that invite bare feet, and bays that hold light like a bowl. This is a day designed around motion — cruising, snorkeling, paddleboarding and drifting in anchorages that roads rarely reach.

Adventure Tips
Arrive early to dock smoothly
Ports like Saint‑Tropez operate a one‑in/one‑out system — message your captain on arrival and plan extra time for entry.
Protect yourself from the sun
Bring broad‑spectrum sunscreen, a hat and polarized sunglasses — reflection off water intensifies UV exposure.
Bring seasickness remedies
Take motion‑sickness medication before boarding if you’re prone to nausea; afternoons can get choppier.
Respect seagrass meadows
Avoid standing on Posidonia beds while snorkeling and use designated anchoring spots to protect marine habitat.
