Nissa Croisières

Nissa Croisières is a sea outing company based at the port of Nice, specialising in trips aboard a 12 metre RIB powered by 700 horsepower and carrying up to 24 passengers. Departing from Port Lympia, the team offers guided cruises along the Cote d'Azur and full private charter of the boat with a skipper.

The company covers the region's finest spots: the bay of Villefranche, Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, La Mala, Eze, Beaulieu, Monaco, and as far as the Lerins islands and the Billionaires' Bay off Cap d'Antibes. Depending on the format, the programme mixes fast cruising, swimming stops, snorkelling and the skipper's stories about the coast.

Full private charter with skipper for seminars, team building, hen and stag parties and birthdays, with a tailor-made programme (route, meals, visits). Languages spoken: French and English.

Visitor reviews

Highlights: With more than 300 Google reviews, Nissa Croisières is one of the best rated sea outings in Nice. The skippers, named in reviews as Leo, Leonard, Elisa, Antoine or JB, are praised throughout for their friendliness, professionalism and coastal anecdotes. Guests highlight the swimming and snorkelling stops in crystal-clear water, the relaxed and musical atmosphere, and the thoughtful touches on board such as rose wine, pissaladiere or homemade focaccia on sunset trips. The experience suits all ages, families included.

Areas for improvement: Outings depend on the weather, and swimming is chilly early and late in the season. With a single boat, it is best to book ahead, especially for sunset slots and private charter in high season.

Overall impression: A safe choice for a friendly sea outing from Nice, picked as much for the warm welcome and skippers as for the scenery. The tailor-made private charter also makes it a good option for groups and events.
