The experience
The Saint-François lagoon is the ideal place to spend a dream day with family or friends. Nestled between crystal-clear waters and the coral reef, a day of pure tranquillity awaits you in the heart of one of Guadeloupe’s most beautiful lagoons. Protected by the coral reef, you can enjoy an idyllic and peaceful setting whilst discovering the underwater flora and fauna.
The new floating jetties will allow you to venture out into the lagoon on your own, surrounded by your loved ones. Its aluminium catamaran-style hull offers excellent stability and guaranteed comfort. The calm of the lagoon makes this day out suitable for everyone: expectant mothers, young children and older children alike! On board, there are three doors to help you get in and out and make the most of the turquoise waters. You won’t need a licence for this type of boat. Equipped with a fully-fledged navigation console, you’ll become captain for the day. An introduction to navigation is provided to help you get to grips with your boat. With the help of a nautical chart, you’ll be able to explore the best hidden corners of the lagoon. Once you’ve chosen your spot to relax and dropped anchor, you can enjoy the moment with a swim, some snorkelling, an aperitif or a spot of relaxation. A sun awning will provide you with plenty of shade during this day of relaxation!
Thanks to a built-in MP3 player, you’ll be able to play your music with friends or family from your iPhone or Android devices. As for your meals, a table is provided so you can enjoy the dishes you’ve prepared to the full. If you’d like, you can use the ready-to-use BBQ kit – complete with charcoal and utensils – to grill chicken or fish on board your boat! A cool box pre-filled with flake ice will also be provided – all you need to bring are your drinks!
These new boats are unique in the French West Indies and have plenty of surprises in store for you!
