CVM Nautical Center, Cros deï Pin Beach in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat
In the heart of the peninsula, 20 minutes from Nice. An exceptional setting for practicing all year round.
The CVM Nautical Centre is nestled between the pine trees and the sea, on the Cros deï Pin beach in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat. This rare location on the French Riviera brings together everything needed for a quality nautical centre: a protected beach, a supervised body of water, sheltered by the coastline and the mountains.
Located here since the club moved (it was previously in Saint-Laurent-du-Var), we benefit from the support of the City of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat and the Alpes-Maritimes Department.
We have: a reception area, mixed changing rooms with showers and toilets, a classroom, a meeting room, and outdoor spaces for the comfort of our members. Parasols, deckchairs, and volleyballs are available for daily rental. Our center is equipped for people with disabilities.
Our team comprises state-certified instructors (BPJEPS, DEJEPS) who are passionate about sharing their knowledge. On the water and on land, they lead each outing with a focus on safety and the joy of learning. For Wing Foil, our approved partner Aurélien (TackSail) provides his specialized equipment.

The Cros deï Pin spot
Cros deï Pin Beach is located on the northern side of the Cap Ferrat peninsula, halfway between Passable Beach (to the west) and the port of Saint-Jean (to the east). It is a sand and pebble beach, easily accessible, with parking nearby.
The water is sheltered from prevailing swells by the peninsula itself. We are on the Beaulieu side — our beach is called Cros deï Pin Beach, while the neighbouring Beaulieu beach is called Plage des Fourmis. The water depth increases gradually, making it ideal for learning. Crystal-clear waters and rocky seabeds perfect for swimming and snorkelling.
A reassuring framework
to learn
Our beach is protected by the coastline and mountains: it's the ideal setting to safely try out all our water sports. Supervised swimming area, instruction by qualified instructors.
