Operated by the Commandant Charcot vessels, the cruises feature a modern guide narrating the region’s history, culture, and ecological significance. Tour options range from a brief 40‑minute round‑trip to immersive 2‑hour voyages that traverse ports such as Le Crotto·y, Hourdel, and the iconic shoreline of the Bay of Somme.
