Iles d'Or Evasion is a Hyères-based boat operator offering coastal and wildlife-focused excursions from the port of Tour Fondue. The company provides a mix of guided short tours and private full-day charters designed to showcase the natural and historical highlights of the Hyères Bay and surrounding islands.
Tours depart from Tour Fondue and cover notable local points including the port of Niel, Ribaud, the western shores of Porquerolles, and views of the Esterel coastline. Available offerings include two 2.5-hour scenic options — La matinale and La Pause du midi — a full-day privatisation (9 AM to 5 PM) for private groups, and a specialist naturalist sortie focused on marine wildlife observation.
The marine wildlife trips are guided by Captain Julien, who holds certification in High Quality Whale Watching®. That certification supports responsible observation practices in protected areas such as the Pelagos sanctuary. Iles d'Or Evasion emphasizes safe departures, local knowledge of routes and habitats, and customizable itineraries for private bookings. The operation is positioned as a local, experience-driven provider for visitors seeking island scenery, coastal history, and marine biodiversity around Hyères.
