Rent a motorboat to visit the Saint-Omer and Clairmarais marshes
With the Boat Makers, rent your wooden boat (boat, barquette, baldequin or small Flemish escute) equipped with an electric motor. One of the best ways to discover the Saint-Omer marshes in the best conditions, with family, friends or lovers...
The electric motor, very handy, allows you to move forward at 6km/h (max) in silence. Ideal for enjoying the calm of nature, for listening to birdsong and not disturbing wildlife. The electric motor is, moreover, very ecological and respects the banks, the inhabitants of the marsh as well as the fishermen. The carrying capacity of our boats is 6 people. The marsh extending over 3700 hectares, a map with indications will be given to you so that you can fully appreciate the Audomarois marsh and its landscapes.
Depending on your desires and the time you have, you can choose one of our 3 unique circuits in the marsh! You also have the possibility of renting a boat, a escute or a small wooden boat equipped with oars. A more sporty way, but not without fun! Face the maze of our rivers, discover the natural heritage, the built heritage and the fields of the marsh of Saint-Omer. Also discover the suburbs, the fauna and flora of this gigantic natural environment, labeled by UNESCO!

We had a great time at the boat builders. I highly recommend this activity. The guides are passionate and friendly. It's interesting, enjoyable, and the smell of boat wood and the natural marshland is wonderful. I plan on sending my friends and family there!

It was great, the children had "the best day of their lives" in their words. The team is very attentive and educational, the explanations and demonstrations are very well thought out, which allows the children to learn a lot of things! The walk is also very relaxing, I highly recommend it.
