Completing a group

100% ZEN discovery day

Spend a day out of time, dedicated to awakening the senses, in the company of Captain Pol, on his trimaran Fildou. An eco-responsible trip, all under sail, to discover the wonders of the Caribbean coast of Martinique.


The reception

Vous serez accueillis à 8h45 dans notre petite Case du bord de mer de Case Pilote. Après avoir réglé les démarches administratives, nous vous prêterons un chapeau coco et un ciré. Ensuite Pol vous rejoins pour le briefing qui permettra de bien préparer la journée. Voici venu le moment d’embarquer sur Fildou à l’aide de notre petite annexe propulsée à la rame (merci les muscles du capitaine).

Morning sailing

Once on Fildou, Pol will explain how the boat works and show you the areas where you can relax or participate in the manoeuvres. All you have to do now is enjoy the ride with the elements. Pol will accompany you throughout the trip with explanations on the flora and fauna as well as on the history of Martinique.

The guided water walk

Once you have chosen the spot of the day (it depends on the wind and swell direction, but also on how busy it is), you will be equipped for your guided aquatic walk. Pol will be able to give you advice on how to observe the wonders of the sea in complete safety, whatever your relationship with the aquatic element. We have both aquaphobes and freedivers on board and our trip is a pleasure for all. You will be told the juicy details of the private life of marine animals. The use of the equipment will be explained. The use of floating chips is compulsory to signal you to other sea users and to avoid snagging on attached wildlife. This will also allow you to remain stable in very shallow waters, and thus observe aquatic life in areas that would not normally be accessible.

Lunch

C’est le moment de ravir vos papilles. Un apéritif, avec ou sans alcool pour débuter : planteur maison,  jus de Goyave Bio, ou  infusion/jus local préparé par Gaelle notre super Cook. Un mélange de noix, graines et fruits secs vous redonnera de l’énergie pour échanger sur les merveilles que vous venez de voir sous l’eau, mais aussi passer un moment convivial tous ensembles. Ensuite vous sera servi votre Madibox  : sous forme de salade composée vous découvrirez des saveurs variées, avec des éléments sains issus de la permaculture locale ou de produits bio.  Vous aurez également un café ( bio de chez Ti-Kafé -) ou une infusion Roiboos pour accompagner la douceur de fin de repas.

Lazing around

You will then have some time to relax on the wings or trampolines of Fildou. You can also choose to go back to talking to the fish, with the equipment still available. When you see Pol starting to take down the tents on the boat, it's time to get ready to go back on board for the afternoon sail.

Afternoon sailing

Those who did not have the opportunity to steer in the morning will be invited to do so if they wish. If you have sailed south, it is often an opportunity for even calmer sailing with the wind and sea at your back. Those who did not have a nap after the meal, often do so at this time, especially the little ones.

The sunset at Case Pilote

Vous serez de retour sur Case-Pilote pour 16h30. Pol vous accompagne à la Case Madisail pour récupérer les affaires laissées le matin et se dire aurevoir. N'hésitez pas à récupérer des flyers ou cartes de visites si vous avez envie de parler de nous ! Nous vous conseillons de boire un verre dans l’un des nombreux restaurants du Bord de Mer de Case-Pilote pour profiter de nos magnifiques couchers de soleil.

Ages

All ages are accepted, what counts is your desire to sail with us.

On our side, we have no age limit. We sometimes have 6-month-old babies, but also 90-year-old grandparents. What counts is the desire. On our side, we adapt to each person, to their abilities and needs. Children are all welcome. For young babies, a baby carrier is a good option. We have suitable life jackets at the Case.

We don't know this in advance. Indeed, we assure you that you will sail as much as possible, and that we will try to avoid the crowded areas. Also, depending on the weather of the day, Pol may decide to sail north or south. What we promise you is that all our spots are breathtaking and wild.

Yes, our Discovery Day is open to everyone! We try to make sure that everyone has a good day. The more experienced ones will appreciate the finesse of the boat, but the more novice ones can also participate in the manoeuvres if they wish. You don't need to be a sailor to enjoy a day on Fildou. The only thing that is not invited on board is seasickness. With the stability of the boat during navigation, we are almost 100% seasick. Even for the most sensitive.

No! Martinique has a tropical climate, rain is one of the components of this climate and allows us to have drinking water all year round and this green nature, so we are not going to complain about it. To anticipate possible squalls, we lend you a raincoat, and during the lunch break, large tents deployed on the wings of Fildou, shelter you from the rain and the sun.

Of course, we try to be as inclusive as possible, and we adapt to all our passengers.
The only constraint is that if you usually use a wheelchair, you will have to leave it at the dock.
