Isula Croisières runs this six-hour boat day trip from Sagone, with a Cargèse option in the product title. The route covers Scandola, a stop at the isolated village of Girolata, and a swimming stop in the Piana area. The listing title itself gives the Girolata stop as 30 minutes.
The boat carries up to 73 travellers and is set up for comfort rather than speed or intimacy. Toilets are on board, and there are shaded and sheltered areas alongside open outdoor decks. A bar serves drinks, there is space to circulate, and a bath mat and shower are provided for after the swim.
One reviewer described a comfortable boat and a professional crew, with steep rock formations rising from blue water, bays, sea caves, a visit to a small isolated sea village and a swim in the same blue water. They called it a perfect half day. The trip suits most travellers, per the listing, including wheelchair and pushchair users, and people with service animals. All fees and taxes are included.
A few practical points shape how this day goes, from what the boat offers to how the stops work.
Common issues. The weather has to cooperate: the listing says the experience requires good weather, and poor conditions can mean a different date or a full refund. A minimum number of travellers is also required, with the same rebooking or refund options if it is not met. One reviewer reported that despite booking the English option, commentary was delivered only in French. With up to 73 travellers on board, anyone expecting a small-boat trip should adjust expectations.
All fees and taxes are included. The boat has toilets, shaded and sheltered areas or outdoor decks, a bar, space to circulate, and a bath mat and shower. The listing flags nothing as excluded.
There is a bar on board, but the listing does not state what, if anything, it serves at a charge. It gives no food details.
It departs from Sagone, with Cargèse also named in the product title.
Six hours in total. The Girolata village stop is 30 minutes, and there is also a swimming stop in the Piana area.
The listing states the tour is wheelchair accessible, including transportation and surfaces, and that pushchairs are accessible too. Service animals are allowed and most travellers can participate.
Cancel at least 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside 24 hours there is no refund and changes are not accepted. If the operator cancels for weather or low numbers, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
