Si pour certains l’automne est synonyme de rentrée scolaire, pour les amateurs varois de bateaux, c’est sans doute la meilleure période de l’année. À la fin de l’été, un grand salon nautique est célébré sur le port de Bandol. Organisé par l’association KIWANIS Bandol – Sanary – Sud Sainte Baume, cet évènement amène chaque année son lot de bonnes surprises…
Bandol Boat Show

A word about the organizers

Every year, the KIWANIS Bandol - Sanary - Sud Sainte Baume association orchestrates this beautiful marine market, soberly named "Salon Nautik". And it's not just for the love of boating that the volunteers get involved. 

This organization is above all charitable. The funds raised at the show can be used by the foundation to help local organizations in need, or can be donated directly to social causes. It's a way of combining business with pleasure, leisure with important causes, all around the same love of the sea.

Bandol Boat Show

Whether you're an avid seafarer, a future sailor in search of your own ship, a lover of the Mediterranean or just plain curious, there's something for everyone at the show. And it has to be said, there's something for everyone! 

First, you'll be able to buy or sell your boat. And yes, in addition to welcoming boats all year round, the port of Bandol is transformed for a few days into a marine concession! It's an opportunity for local suppliers to showcase their finest new and used boats. But that's not all...

All the city's nautical players are working hard to offer you a great program:

  • Meet the lifeguards at sea (SNSM).
  • Rescue demonstrations with the Maîtres-Chiens Sauveteurs Aquatiques. 
  • Lectures on seafaring professions.
  • Nautical flea market for bargains.

A complete event to celebrate the Var playground par excellence: the Mediterranean Sea!
