The history of Villefranchoi Maritime Charterings

Created by the fishermen of Villefranche-Sur-Mer, Beaulieu-Sur-Mer, Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, it is with the SIRENE I, our first passenger launch, that we offer our first sea excursions with discovery cruises of our beautiful Côte d’Azur.

True Lovers of the Mediterranean Sea and especially its fauna, it is from 1999 that we offer a real encounter with nature which has become our flagship walk: Observe the cetaceans of the Mediterranean.

Commitment to the environment and scientific partnership

In order to combine knowledge and environmental awareness during this magical experience, we welcome on board a scientific partnership with the S.I.L.L.A.G.E. observatory.

Thanks to the presence of the ethologist and specialist in the behavior of cetaceans Philippe Maurt, our passengers are guided during the observation of the mammals encountered.

For 32 years, the quality, originality and diversity of the activities we offer have contributed to the wonder and happiness of our passengers.
