Our Ahoy Approved Guide
Cannes is best known for its film festival but the coastline around it — particularly the Lérins Islands sitting just offshore — is among the most accessible and rewarding on the Riviera.
Popular Spots
Highlights
The spots worth reaching that only get to by sea.
Anchorage
Île Sainte-Marguerite
The larger of the Lérins Islands, a short sail from Cannes, with sheltered coves and turquoise water. Fort Royal once held the Man in the Iron Mask.
Landmark
Île Saint-Honorat
Home to a working Cistercian monastery whose monks have farmed the land and produced wine since the 5th century. Beautiful Romanesque architecture.
Dining
La Guérite
A celebrated beach restaurant on Île Sainte-Marguerite, accessible only by private boat. Tables set among the pines beside the sea, with French Mediterranean cuisine at its finest.
Anchorage
Plage de la Bocca
A sandy-bottomed bay just west of Cannes with good holding ground and excellent shelter. Ideal for a lunch anchorage with shallow, calm water.
Landmark
Le Suquet
Cannes' old quarter, perched on a hill above the harbour with narrow streets and colourful houses. From the top there is an extraordinary view over the bay.
Beach Club
Vega La Plage
One of Cannes' most enduring beach clubs, offering understated Riviera elegance on the seafront. A pontoon service is available for arriving by tender.
