Sailing out of Cannes

The playground: the bay of Cannes, edged by the red Estérel rocks to the west and closed off to the south by the Lérins islands, under two miles off the Croisette. Starting point: the Vieux-Port below the Suquet and Port Canto at the eastern end of the Croisette.

The wind to know

Upwind or down, reckon with moderate sea breezes in summer; mistral and easterly blows wake up mostly out of season: that is what draws the local routes.
