Izenah III sailing along the Var coast

Coves and the Var coast by sailboat

Port d'Alon, bay of La Moutte, Embiez: the coast from a different angle

The coast between Saint-Cyr-sur-Mer and Bandol is fringed with secluded coves only accessible from the sea. By sailboat, you reach them without the crowds on the trails, straight from the open water. Izenah III departs from Port de La Madrague and sails along the coast to the most pristine corners.

Coves accessible only by sea

Some can only be reached by boat or after a long scramble over rocks. By yacht, we anchor calmly, dropping anchor in the sand. Port d'Alon, the bay of La Moutte, the waters near Embiez: a different world just a stone's throw from the harbour.

Sailing along the Var coast

The route follows the cliffs between Saint-Cyr-sur-Mer and Bandol. We pass Port d'Alon, Pointe Grenier, and reach the crystal-clear waters off Embiez. A wild shoreline, untouched by mass tourism.

Sailing, swimming and tranquillity

The yacht anchors in a sheltered cove. We swim, sunbathe on deck, share the aperitif. The rhythm is that of the wind and sea, not a fixed timetable.

Frequently asked questions

Which coves do we visit?+

Depending on conditions and the package, we sail towards Port d'Alon, the bay of La Moutte or towards the islands of Embiez. The skipper adapts the route to the day's wind and sea.

Can we swim in the coves?+

Yes, it's one of the highlights of every trip. We anchor in a sheltered cove and everyone enjoys the water - clear, calm, with the seabed visible.

Is it different from a motorboat excursion?+

Completely. We sail under canvas, without engine noise. The pace is that of the wind and sea. And Izenah III is a classic 1970 yacht, not a production boat.
