Each boat is offered for a number of guests that guarantees comfort and safety on board. The sailboat appeals to groups of six to ten friends who want to feel the boat heel under sail and dive from the swim platform. The catamaran, stable and spacious, welcomes larger groups with its trampolines at the front, perfect for sunbathing between swims and for group photos. Classic sailboats, such as Andale, Hygie or the ketch Belle Aventure designed by William Fife III, offer an exceptional setting for a hen or stag party that nobody will forget.
More than 30 guests? We bring together several boats, moored side by side at anchor: the whole group stays together for swimming, drinks and the meal. See the whole fleet on our boats page.
The price of a hen party at sea is for the whole boat, not per person. That is what makes it so affordable: the bigger the group, the lower the price per guest. Here are a few budget examples, skipper and fuel included.
At a hen party, tradition has the friends share the bride-to-be’s share, and the same goes for the groom-to-be at a stag party. To keep things simple, the best man or maid of honour can pay the deposit online and then collect everyone’s contribution: we send a clear quote, with details of the boat, the extras and the total price.
Your skipper welcomes you at Port Corbières, where the private car park makes it easy for the group to arrive, then gives the safety briefing and introduces the boat.
Head for the calanques of the Côte Bleue, the Frioul islands or the calanques of Cassis, depending on the departure port, the weather and what you would like. Anyone who wants to can take the helm.
A break in a cove with turquoise water: swimming, paddleboarding, mask and snorkel, games and challenges prepared by the best man or maid of honour.
At anchor, with music outside protected areas and your own playlist: lunch, sunset drinks or dinner, depending on the option.
Return in the late afternoon or at night, with the lights of Marseille, and all the photos of a hen or stag party out of the ordinary.
The paddleboard, life jackets, glasses and ice are on board. Bring your decorations, accessories and challenges: the bride-to-be’s sash, matching T-shirts, a veil and flower crown, or a costume for the groom-to-be. Confetti, glitter and sky lanterns are forbidden to protect the sea and the boat.
For a more generous prestige drinks package, with champagne and savoury bites, or a festive meal on board a classic sailboat, we put together a tailor-made menu with our partner caterer. A photographer can also come on board to capture the hen or stag party: just ask in your quote request.
A private catamaran, a swim in a cove, sunset drinks and group photos on the trampoline: the perfect day before the big day.
Taking the helm, trimming the sails and feeling the boat speed up: a stag party on a sailboat is a real sailing experience with friends, with a swim as the reward.
Both future spouses and their friends together on board a large catamaran or two boats rafted together at anchor, for a shared celebration.
The best man or maid of honour arranges a fake meeting, the group waits on board, and the surprise bursts out when the bride or groom-to-be arrives.
Paddleboarding, jumping from the swim platform, a swimming race to the cove: the organisers prepare the challenges, and the skipper looks after safety.
For an elegant farewell to single life, a classic wooden sailboat, such as Andale or Belle Aventure, offers a picture-postcard setting and unforgettable photos.
From May to September, the sea is warm and the days are long. Saturdays in June, July and August are the most sought-after for a hen party in Marseille: book one to two months ahead. In May, September and October, the light is magnificent, the anchorages are quieter and it is easier to find the ideal boat.
Count the number of guests before choosing: a sailboat for ten people at most, a catamaran beyond that. A boat that is too small spoils the comfort; one that is too big pushes up the budget. If in doubt, simply give the number of guests in your quote request: we will advise you on the most suitable boat.
Amplified music is forbidden in the heart of the Calanques National Park. For a stag or hen party with music, the skipper chooses an anchorage on the Côte Bleue or at the Frioul, outside protected areas. The calanques of Cassis are best enjoyed in peace, for swimming and photos.
The sea and alcohol do not mix well: swimming is done in moderation, always from the back of the boat and under the skipper’s eye. Bring plenty of water, sunscreen, a cap and a sweatshirt for the way back. The skipper alone decides on safety on board: he can cut a swim short or change anchorage if the situation requires it.
The mistral can whip up a rough sea in a few hours. The skipper checks the Météo-France forecasts before every trip and chooses the most sheltered route. If the weather does not allow the trip, it is postponed at no cost or refunded, in line with our terms and conditions of sale. You can also follow the forecasts on our marine weather Marseille page.
Swimsuit, towel, non-marking shoes, sunglasses, a phone charger and a waterproof speaker if you like. Leave your heels on shore: on board, everyone goes barefoot. For hen party accessories, choose fabric and materials that will not blow away.

Since 2018, LOCVOILIER has organised boat trips, charters and deliveries from Marseille, Cassis and La Ciotat.

A hen or stag party at sea costs from €700 for a sunset and from €790 for a day or an evening on a private sailboat with a skipper, for the whole boat. On a catamaran, allow from €1,490 for the day, and from €2,000 for a classic sailboat. Shared between ten guests, a hen party at sea often comes to €79 per person.
From 6 to 10 people on a sailboat, up to 20 on a catamaran, 25 on board the ketch Belle Aventure and 30 on the classic sailboat Saintam’. Beyond that, we raft several boats together at anchor: the whole group stays together for swimming and drinks.
No. A professional skipper is always on board: he drives the boat, chooses the anchorage according to the weather and looks after safety. Anyone who wants to can take the helm or trim a sail.
Yes. You can bring your drinks, your playlist and your decorations: balloons, garlands, sashes and accessories are welcome. Confetti, glitter and sky lanterns are forbidden to protect the sea. Alcohol consumption must remain reasonable: the skipper alone decides on safety on board.
Amplified music is forbidden in the heart of the Calanques National Park. To party with music, the skipper chooses a suitable anchorage, for example on the Côte Bleue or at the Frioul, outside protected areas.
The full day, from 10am to 5pm, is the most complete: sailing, swimming, paddleboarding and lunch at anchor. The sunset, about three hours, is ideal for drinks and photos. The evening, from 6pm to 11pm, combines the sunset, dinner on board and the return by night with the lights of Marseille.

Yes. We agree on a cover story and a time with the best man or maid of honour, the group boards before the guest of honour arrives, and the surprise happens on the pontoon. We keep the secret to the very end.
Of course. More and more groups bring both future spouses and their friends together for a shared send-off: a catamaran is then ideal to welcome everyone.
The skipper decides whether the trip goes ahead based on the Météo-France forecasts. If the mistral blows or the sea is too rough, the trip is postponed at no cost or refunded in line with our terms and conditions of sale.
Saturdays from May to September go quickly: ideally, book one to two months ahead. For a date coming up soon, message us on WhatsApp; we always look for a solution, even if it means offering another boat.
