Localanque

Localanque creates memorable maritime experiences from Marseille’s Vieux-Port, giving private groups, companies and event organisers the opportunity to discover the Mediterranean from the water. Its fleet of passenger boats, operated by professional skippers, is available for private hire, half-day outings, full-day cruises and tailor-made programmes around the Calanques, the Frioul archipelago, the Château d’If and the Côte Bleue.

For corporate organisers, Localanque can design distinctive team-building days, incentive activities and company outings combining navigation, local discovery, informal dining, swimming stops, pétanque, quizzes and other light-hearted challenges. The itinerary, boat, duration, activities and catering arrangements can be adapted to suit the group and event objectives. This makes the service suitable for smaller teams, client entertainment, executive retreats and relaxed networking experiences with a strong sense of place.

The boats can also be used for private celebrations and special occasions, including birthdays, hen and stag parties, romantic cruises, marriage proposals and wedding ceremonies at sea. Sunset trips, aperitifs, picnics, photo shoots, filming support and bespoke nautical events are among the possible formats. Localanque also provides boat taxi and private transfer services between ports and coastal locations around Marseille.

With an experienced maritime team, a strong connection to Marseille and a focus on personalisation, Localanque offers organisers an alternative to conventional venues and activities. Guests can enjoy the city, coastline and protected natural landscapes from a comfortable and intimate setting, while the crew manages the navigation and practical aspects of the experience.
