From the port of Cannes, small boats go to various islands like Margarita or St Honorat. I took the one to Santa Margarita. The journey takes about 15 minutes, and a round-trip ticket costs about 12 euros. You can buy the tickets from a local company at the harbour, or on the street just in front; you can't miss it, as they have signs in the windows advertising them. Once you've got your ticket, get yourself down to the port. We had a bit of trouble finding it, as the area was undergoing construction work, so we couldn't go the usual route, and instead had to go through the parking lot. On the boat you could choose between going on deck to take pictures of the trip, or sitting inside.
The trip was quite bumpy. I don't know if that's usual, but although the sea seemed calm, the boat was moving quite a lot, and I probably should have brought a raincoat.
