About

Nestled in the Rade de Villefranche-sur-Mer — unanimously considered one of the Mediterranean's most beautiful bays — Glisse Évasion nautical base at 3 promenade des Marinières offers something no other Nice base can: water sports in an exceptional natural setting, framed by steep cliffs, spectacular seabeds and remarkably clear water.

Glisse Évasion's great particularity: it is the only base offering parasailing in Villefranche-sur-Mer — an exclusivity allowing elevation above the bay to admire from the sky one of France's most photographed landscapes. Beyond parasailing, the base offers stand-up paddle, kayak, sea trips and snorkelling.

Guest Reviews

Highlights: Villefranche bay setting is unanimously described as the most beautiful in the entire Nice region for water sports. Parasailing from Villefranche is cited as the finest Mediterranean view available. Kayaks to explore coves are very appreciated.

Areas for improvement: Villefranche location requires travel (bus 100 or car from Nice). Seasonal activities only. Some activities weather-dependent.

Overall: Glisse Évasion Villefranche is Nice's most beautiful nautical address — an exceptional setting in the Mediterranean's most beautiful bay, with accessible activities in a preserved natural environment.
