Malheureusement, notre voyage a été annulé parce qu’il n’y avait pas assez de passages pour que le voyage soit rentable. On nous a proposé deux options demi-journée, l’une avec la même goélette à voile pour les îles du Frioul, mais ce n’était pas garanti pour la même raison que précédemment. L’autre option, 4 heures et demie, en théorie par les Calanques sur un bateau à moteur, (ce fut celui que nous avons choisi) mais ils nous ont emmenés aux îles Frioul et nous sommes restés plus de 2 heures dans une calanque pour nous baigner, le 9 octobre, 2 heures pour un bain c’est trop car il y avait assez de vent. Je pense qu’un peu plus de navigation sur la côte aurait été beaucoup mieux.
