Description:
Escape from the crowd of vibrant Cannes and cruise to the take a breaking and peaceful little paradise of Ile Sainte-Marguerite. Surrounded by its serene atmosphere, admire the island's stunning beauty and see lush vegetation, migratory birds, and historic sites.
As soon as you disembark, be immersed in the fresh fragrance of pine trees and eucalyptus. Enjoy a stroll in the shade of these trees to reach the panoramic Pointe du Dragon, and check the signboards describing the island's botanical and zoological characteristics.
Take a moment to admire the breathtaking panorama over the Bay of Cannes, and then visit the impressive fortress prison of Fort Royal. Nowadays it can be difficult to picture the island's military history, when the 17th-century fortress defended France's southern coast from enemy attack.
Admire the cannonball resting next to the fortress entrance, a witness of the island's glorious past dating back to 1715 that was found at the bottom of the sea. Visit the museum dedicated to archaeology and find the prison cell where the famous Man in the Iron Mask was held captive.
