boat hire in Antibes · Jeanneau — Fantasia (1988)
Description of Fab's sailboat
Sailboat Jeanneau Fantasia 8.3m
Embark on an unforgettable day aboard our sailboat and discover the Côte d'Azur in a different way. We can accommodate a small group of up to 4 passengers, friends or family plus the skipper/owner. We'll be sailing along the Cap d'Antibes, and you'll be able to enjoy a breathtaking view of the sea from the boat's deck. On board, you'll find everything you need for a comfortable day. I will pay particular attention to your safety and comfort, allowing you to relax and enjoy every moment to the full. The yacht is equipped with a marine toilet, kitchenette and fridge. Depending on your choice, we will leave from the port of Antibes, sail along the ramparts of the old town and reach the Cap d'Antibes for a swim in the creeks of La Garoupe or the Baie des Milliardaires. We'll take a break for a swim and lunch before heading back to Antibes. Possibility of paddle-boarding at anchor. I advise you to bring flippers, mask, snorkel, swimming costume, warm clothes (jumper, windbreaker), tennis shoes or soft shoes. The programme may change for weather or safety reasons. This experience can only be enjoyed in calm weather, with winds of less than 15 knots, and will be cancelled if the wind is forecast to be stronger the day before. And if there isn't enough wind, the outing will be carried out with the motor at no extra cost to you. Book your sea outing now and let yourself be seduced by the beauty of the Côte d'Azur on a VIP boat. The boat will be privatised just for you. Departure at 10.00 am and return around 4.30 pm. PS: the boat is just a few minutes from Antibes train station. Free parking is also available nearby.

Overall rating
Fab was an absolutely wonderful host, engaging and enigmatic. He took us (1 adult and three teenagers) down the coast to a little bay for some swimming and snorkelling in beautiful crystal clear water. Afterwards we had a little picnic and enjoyed a glass of wine while we watched the sun set over the Côte d'Azur. It was a lovely evening and I highly recommend this charter. Very good value for money and really nice to learn more about the area from Fabrice, who is clearly very passionate about it.
Exceptional experience. Could not recommend more. My kids had an amazing time as did we. Great boat and even better captain!
My girlfriend and I had the best time on Fab's boat. Best thing we did while visiting Nice/French Riviera. Experience: We don't have any sailing experience, and Fab took care of everything. He asked beforehand if we had any preferences of where to go, and took us to a beautiful cove for swimming and snorkeling. He had plenty of equipment. Fab himself was the perfect host, respecting us as a couple when we wanted to spend time together and also opening up and inviting us to learn about his life and experiences. we brought lunch and wine, but also brought us wine and food to share. It was a perfectly relaxed and friendly experience, and we learned a lot about the country and his life experience. Location: the meeting point is very conveniently located on the main antibes dock. We were originally visiting Nice, and we decided to stay in Antibes instead to be closer to the dock for a full day boat trip. That was an awesome choice because we liked Antibes much more, but it's only 30-40 minutes Uber from Nice. The sailboat was beautiful and perfect for a couple or a small group, with a cabin for toilet, storage, changing, etc. We loved resting on the front of the boat to sunbathe and take in the views. There was not a lot of wind the day we went, so we used the motor to get around. Thank you Fab and good luck!
Fab was FABULOUS! So good with all of us, especially the kids. This is an older small family boat but it has everything necessary for a wonderful day. It worked great for our family of 3 adults and 2 small children. Life vests, snorkeling, paddle board, snacks. We brought our lunch too and we all shared with our meal together with Captain Fab. It's nice to support local captains and their boat love. Fab speaks very good English and communication was easy. If you'd like a very personalized, safe and easy day for your family or two couples, for a reasonable price; Fab is your guy! Merci beaucoup Fab!
We couldn't have dreamed of a better experience! Fabrice was exceptional from start to finish. He's a rare person, the likes of which you rarely meet. He knows the region like the back of his hand and showed us the entire coastline, passionately sharing every detail with us. The welcome on board was remarkable: everything was designed to ensure we had an unforgettable day in Antibes. We had the chance to chat at length with him; he's a captivating, cultured, charismatic, and deeply respectful man. A huge thank you to you, Fabrice! I recommend this experience to everyone: treat yourself to this day, you won't regret it for a second!
We had a wonderful day aboard Fab's boat. Fab is a thoughtful, attentive, and knowledgeable captain. He gave us detailed explanations about the sailboat's operation and valuable insights into the geography of the area. We shared a meal and rosé with him, in moderation, of course...we felt at ease, like we were with a friend. Lucile and Laurent
