A 2-hour boat trip to see the fireworks in Sainte-Marie-la-Mer

Every year, the fireworks display in Sainte-Marie-la-Mer on July 14th attracts many spectators to the beach and promenades. But from land, the view is often partial and the crowds are large.

Aboard the Navivoile catamaran , you'll enjoy an unobstructed view of the fireworks display, facing the seaside resort. The fireworks are reflected on the sea, creating a completely different atmosphere. It's the perfect way to experience Bastille Day on July 14th in a unique way in the Pyrénées-Orientales , in a peaceful and exclusive setting.

The evening begins with a departure from the port of Canet-en-Roussillon . The catamaran heads towards Sainte Marie la Mer and positions itself beyond the 300m zone, facing the beach, to offer an optimal view of the fireworks display.

Weather permitting, the sailing trip will take place, creating an even more peaceful and tranquil atmosphere. Just before the fireworks display, a cocktail (*) will be served on board so you can fully enjoy this moment at sea.
