Les Embiez island

More about your visit

The official website lists a regular year-round connection from Le Brusc, with a crossing of about twelve minutes. A service from Sanary is offered in summer. Departures and fares vary: check your port, date and return options before heading to the quay. Allow for traffic, parking or public-transport connections, especially on busy days.

On arrival, locate Port Saint-Pierre and consult the island map. Paths alternate sea views with stretches through vegetation; carry water even if you expect to return quickly to the shops. For swimming, choose a place according to conditions and on-site instructions. A photogenic small cove does not necessarily offer the facilities of an organised beach. Wear suitable footwear and do not assume a natural area has supervision or easy access.

The boat ticket is the first cost; add meals, hire or activities separately if you want them. You can organise a simple day around walking, but leisure services are not automatically included in the crossing.

Choose a target return time and allow a reasonable wait at the harbour. If the weather worsens, follow the operator’s information.
