When to book my excursion?

The high demand and the small size of our boats mean that we rarely have seats available on the day of departure. As soon as you know your vacation dates or your the day you will stay in Cargèse, consider buying your tickets. You are not taking any risks since you can cancel your reservation up to 24 hours before departure.

Tip: It is preferable to book for one of the first days of your stay so that you can postpone your excursion in the event of cancellation (bad weather for example)

 What about seasickness?

 The design of our boats (tapered tip) offers great stability and generally allows us to better resist seasickness. Moreover, when the sea is too rough, we cancel the departures. We absolutely want our excursions to be a pleasure.

For particularly sensitive people, some basic rules to avoid seasickness:

It is generally recommended, before departure, to prefer solid foods to liquids, to avoid acidic foods such as orange juice; during the trip, to stay outside, to look at the horizon, to be active.

 

Tip: Taking a medication for travel sickness about an hour before departure can also help reduce seasickness.

And if you are particularly sensitive, please let us know when making your reservation.
