There is no Riviera-wide arrival tourism levy and no universal marine-park dive tag for Cannes, Antibes, Nice, or Villefranche-sur-Mer. Budget instead for the municipal tourist tax collected by accommodation, operator boat and equipment charges, island ferry tickets, and any optional federation license or course paperwork. The Cannes Underwater Eco-Museum itself is free. Protected status still creates enforceable conduct rules, including the Eco-Museum no-mooring zone and restrictions intended to protect Posidonia.
| Frais | Montant | S'applique à | Où payer | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Municipal tourist tax | Variable local rate per eligible person per night |
Charged for each taxable accommodation night
| Most adult visitors using paid accommodation, subject to local exemptions and the property's classification |
| Collected by the hotel, rental platform, host, campsite, or other accommodation provider |
This is the French taxe de sejour, not a destination entry fee. Rates vary by municipality, accommodation category, and classification, and unclassified properties may use a percentage method. Check the booking breakdown and request a receipt if the amount is collected separately. |
| Destination-wide marine park tag | EUR 0 Not applicable | Scuba divers, freedivers, and snorkelers | No universal tag is sold for the four-town destination | Natura 2000 and other protected designations do not create a single Bonaire-style visitor tag here. A specific operator, harbor, event, protected site, or future regulation may still impose a fee or access condition, so follow the current briefing. |
| Cannes Underwater Eco-Museum access | Free Per visit during safe access conditions | Swimmers, snorkelers, and freedivers | No admission ticket; reach Sainte-Marguerite Island by paid ferry or private boat using lawful mooring | The installation is in a no-mooring zone. Free access does not remove the need to pay for transport, carry appropriate equipment, respect swim boundaries, or avoid touching and standing on the sculptures. |
| Dive-center exploration or training charges | Operator-specific Per dive, package, course, or equipment-rental period | Scuba divers and course participants | Directly from the selected local operator | Confirm whether the quoted amount includes boat, cylinder, weights, full equipment, computer, federation license, certification fee, Nitrox, guide, and any fuel supplement. Cancellation terms are important because wind can change the operating site or prevent departure. |
| FFESSM license or medical documentation | Variable; not automatically required for every tourist dive Depends on the federation activity, course, club, or event | Participants in relevant federation courses, club activities, competitions, or programs | Through the participating club or center when required | Do not buy a license speculatively. Ask the operator whether your planned activity requires one and whether a French-compliant medical certificate is needed. Recreational exploration policies can differ from course or competition requirements. |
| Lerins Islands ferry | Operator and route specific Per return or one-way ticket under the fare rules | Visitors traveling to Sainte-Marguerite or Saint-Honorat | Official ferry operator website or Cannes departure point | Sainte-Marguerite and Saint-Honorat services are distinct. Check route, final return time, child fares, weather policy, and whether online booking guarantees a specific sailing. |
