Full description

The ferry leaves Nice around 09:00 for a crossing of roughly one hour to Sainte-Marguerite Island, giving a full day to explore independently. Visitors can follow botanical trails through the woods, look for bird habitats, or swim in clear water.

Fort Royal and its museum need separate admission. The return departs the island at 18:00 and reaches Nice around 19:00.

Reviewers mention peaceful woods and wildlife, but also rocky beaches, cash-only onboard drinks and a long queue for paper tickets.
