Description of
the boating holiday

The Nicols base is located at the crossroads of the Canal de Garonne (also known as the Canal des Deux Mers), the Lot River and the River Baise. This means that from Buzet-sur-Baïse there are numerous cruising possibilities that will give you a flavour of typical villages in and around the Gers and Gascony region, as well sample the best fine dining and quality vineyards that are here in abundance.

The perfect relaxing family break
Everything was perfect including the weather! A boating holiday is such a relaxing way to spend quality time with the family. With exciting places to visit and ever-changing scenery even the teenagers couldn’t get bored! We can’t get to try another boating holiday again soon.
