Boating - Rentals and Charters · Explore · Guest Post

For new arrivals in town, what is nicer than a one-hour trip from Marseille’s Vieux Port to admire the key sites and hear about their history?

This is the offer from Localanque with Story Boat. I have this information from ‘Pass My Provence,’ which offers 2-for-1 to cardholders: one person pays 15€, and the other is free.

See Marseille from the Sea

Localanque is a company created by passionate skippers in Marseille. They have a fleet of several boats available to accommodate different group sizes and uses. Some of their marine offerings include:

The one-hour “Story Boat” cruise is perfect for visitors to Marseille or anyone interested in seeing the famous sights (Notre-Dame de la Gard, MuCEM, Palais du Pharo, etc.) from a different angle. It requires a minimum of eight (8) people.

Customized tours for private or corporate events.

Romantic sunset cruises.

A 3-hour introduction to fishing in the Mediterranean. Try your hand at catching the rockfish for bouillabaisse. Learn about line fishing, trolling and more. This trip requires a minimum of six (6) people.

Marseille Classic Bouillabaisse
Ideally, a bouillabaisse should be prepared for at least 6 to 7 people, allowing the cook to purchase a wider variety of fish. Below is the luxury version of the traditional recipe, as it differs from the original fishermen who were simply recuperating the damaged and unsold parts.
