Eze clings like an eagle's nest to a rock spike towering 1401 feet over the sea.

Cannes is a well-known destination in the French Riviera that is home to many international festivals celebrating the arts, including Midem, Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, and the global film festival founded in 1946, the Cannes Film Festival. It’s the first European satellite manufacturer, home to the Cannes Mandelieu Space Center, as well as the headquarters for Thales Alenia Space. Originally a small fishing port heavily tied to the Lerins Islands, Cannes is most characterized by luxury, fame, and hosting conferences. Despite becoming a glamorous destination in the Côte d'Azur, the history of Cannes and the Lerins Islands was quite rocky. When sailing to Cannes, be sure to visit La Croisette and stroll along the white sandy beaches on this mile-long promenade where the very essence of this town thrives. SeaDream I typically anchors so we can offer water sports to our valued guests. You may occasionally see the yacht docked alongside when you are chartered from the festival.

Cassis is a small port situated east of Marseille in the administrative department of the Bouches-du-Rhone in the Provence-Alpes-Cote d'Azur region. It is a very popular tourist destination and is famous for its steep cliffs and the sheltered limestone inlets called calanques.
 
Optional Activities:
 
Cassis – Aix En Provence: A short walk from the tender landing stage to the bus parking area (10-minute walk) and then a beautiful drive through bucolic scenery takes you to the charming old town of Aix. Many villages, but few towns, are as well preserved as this elegant, traditional capital of Provence. Stroll with your guide on a walking tour through the narrow cobblestone lanes as you make your way to the celebrated Cours Mirableau Avenue. Flanked with intertwining plane trees, it is the town's nerve center and divides Vieux Aix in two, with the medieval streets to the north and the sophisticated, haughty 18th-century mansions to the south. The Cathedrale Saint Sauveur is another highlight with its remarkable 15th-century triptych by Nicolas Froment. After the guided portion of the tour, enjoy some free time to explore the lovely environs of cafes and boutiques before returning to Cassis.
Duration: 4.5 hours
 
Cassis – Hiltop Village of Castellet & Wine tasting: Departing from Cassis, visit the absolutely charming Castellet, a typical Provencal hilltop village.

See the St. Sauveur Church with its proud windows before joining the “Trou de Madame” from where you can enjoy an attractive view inland towards St Baume. Have some time to explore the arts and craft workshops –painting, pottery, hollow-ware and lovely small stores selling soaps and fragrances.

Barcelona, a UNESCO city, is the second largest in Spain. It is the 12th most visited city in the world and 4th most visited in Europe. Especially remarkable is the work of architect Antoni Gaudi, which can be seen throughout the city. His best-known work is the immense but still unfinished church of the Sagrada Familia, which has been under construction since 1882, and is still financed by private donations. Disembark after breakfast. Transfer into the city or to the airport for your continued independent journeys.

Optional Activities:

Barcelona – Gaudi’s Barcelona – Architectural Revolution: The symbol of Barcelona must surely be the incredible Sagrada Familia Basilica designed by the local revolutionary architect, Antoni Gaudi. Gaudi is probably the most famous modernist architect in the world. This tour visits the interiors of both the Sagrada Familia and the Guell Park, Gaudi's greatest works. Start with a viewing of two of Gaudi's buildings, the Casa Mila and the Casa Batllo, which have both been declared World Heritage sites by UNESCO. Then pay a visit to Guell Park, the dream of the businessman Eusebi Guell and his revolutionary architect, Gaudi. Despite the wild appearance of the park, everything in it was planned: the access, the market, the main square, the drainage, the reveries, the roads and paths, the staircases, the benches, etc. The Sagrada Familia Basilica is probably one of the world's most unique structures. Prepare yourself to be impressed with its sheer scale. Still uncompleted, work began in 1882 under the direction of Francesco de Paula Villar, who intended to give the work a Neo-Gothic style, in fashion at that time. The temple has 3 facades, one for the Birth which was built in 1891, the second is the Passion with the Door of Faith, and the third one (not yet built) evokes the Glory of God. When completed to Gaudi's design, the masterpiece will have 18 towers more than 100 meters high. The group of architects that is now working on the project (which is still a private foundation) dream of finishing the work by 2026, the 100th anniversary of Gaudi's death.
