A typical motorboat day in Cannes
Boarding: the Vieux-Port below the Suquet and Port Canto at the eastern end of the Croisette. At cruising speed the classic plan strings together Sainte-Marguerite and Saint-Honorat (the Lérins islands), the Esquillon headland and the Théoule calanques on the Estérel side, with swim stops at anchor.
