    • Jouvence Cruise - Private guided boat tour of the Arcachon Basin

      What if the most beautiful guided tour of the Arcachon Basin wasn't on foot, but on the water?

      Jouvence Cruise takes you aboard Jouvence! An elegant 11.60 meter RABA cruiser pinasse, to discover the Bassin differently: from its channels, its oyster villages, its beaches, its lights and its silences.

      Departing from Arcachon, Cap Ferret, Canon or Grand Piquey, experience a private cruise with captain around the iconic places of the Basin : Bird Island, the Tchanquées Cabins, the oyster beds, the Cap Ferret peninsula, the Banc d'Arguin or even the Dune du Pilat depending on the tide, the weather and your desires.

      Here, there are no tours recited like an old tourist guidebook. The itinerary adapts to your group, the daylight, the rhythm of the Bay and what you want to experience: a contemplative stroll, a family outing, a moment with friends, a tasting on board, a sunset or a private cruise for an event.

      Jouvence is the association of a boat and a skipper, Gabriel, owner of Jouvence, oyster farmer and native of the bay.

      He wanted his boat to be comfortable, intimate and equipped with toilets and showers on board so that Jouvence could accommodate up to 12 passengers for an elegant, local and original discovery of the Arcachon Basin.

      Jouvence Cruise, a guided tour of the Basin at water level.

    Nous avons passé une excellente matinée au Banc d'Arguin avec Croisière Jouvence. Le skipper, Gabriel, est très sympathique et pro (ponctualité/disponible/attentions au groupe parfait). Il a été adorable avec les jeunes matelots du jour. Le bateau est magnifique/bien entretenu avec plusieurs zones pour s'installer confortablement. Nous y reviendrons pour sûr à notre prochain passage sur le Bassin!

    Très belle expérience à bord de ce beau bateau, très bien équipé ! Une sortie de 4h réservée dans le cadre d'un moment convivial en équipe. Les gros plus sont les arrêts baignade proche des cabanes tchanquées et au banc d'Arguin. Gabriel, le capitaine du bateau a été très agréable. Prestation de grande qualité. Je recommande ! Merci pour tout @Gabriel 🙏

    Fantastic cruise with Gabriel. Everything was perfect: the seafood platter, the explanations, the route. All of it made for an exceptional experience. Thank you!
