What to do in France?
The list of things to do and places to see is so long that it would be impossible to accomplish everything in a lifetime. At Océans Evasion, we have gathered our favourite destinations in each region which will leave you longing to extend your trip at the end.
In the South of France, we highly recommend visiting the vibrant towns of Provence to immerse into the Mediterranean culture, the scenic calanques of Marseille for scuba-diving in the blue waters, as well as the "jet set" French Riviera to places like Saint Tropez or the world-renowned Cannes Film Festival onboard a luxury yacht.
On the Atlantic Coast, visitors can spread out along the never-ending sandy beaches of the Aquitaine, surf in Arcachon, or gaze out at the sunsets on the striking Dune du Pilat.
In the North, families can rent a yacht to the islands surrounding Britany, visit the fishing town of Saint Malo for local delicacies or enjoy the scenic views near the Etretat cliffs. The North of France, being less sought-after than the Cote d'Azur, offers visitors the chance to embark on luxury sailing holidays for a fraction of the price.
