2 tours · €60–€79 per person · ★ 4.7
The boat tours in Marseille on this page all head into the Calanques by sea, and every one was picked by hand from the listings rated 4.5★ or higher. Prices run from €60 per person for a guided kayak excursion in the creeks with a certified guide, life jacket and dry bag, to €79 for a full day of sea kayaking in the national park with a minibus transfer to the launch site. Between them sits the boat trip along the creeks with a swim stop, snorkelling gear, soft drinks and a short wetsuit if the water is cold, in small groups capped between eight and sixteen.
A quick way to choose: be honest about the water, because the kayak days ask for a moderate level of fitness, closed shoes that will get wet and, on the full day, the ability to swim fifty metres without help, while the boat trip suits every fitness level and infants ride on a lap. Bring your own towel, hat and water, and on the long kayak day a picnic too. The best reviewed boat tours in Marseille come first below.
