Bal de la Marine, Floating bar at Port de Suffren, Paris, France
The double-deck vessel features a restaurant inside and an outdoor terrace with a bar, dance floor, and stage facing the Eiffel Tower.
The establishment opened in June 2017 through a partnership with Le Cercle De La Mer, an association of maritime enthusiasts who own the boat.
The venue brings together retired admirals, former sailors, and maritime enthusiasts to promote cultural exchanges centered on naval traditions.
The bar operates from 6:00 PM to 2:00 AM daily, with access through Trocadero or Bir Hakeim metro stations on lines 6 and 9.
Peruvian restaurant MIKUNA serves food aboard while guests watch boats pass on the Seine River beneath the illuminated Eiffel Tower.

Paris has about thirty floating venues and bars along the Seine, Marne, and canals. These establishments offer waterside dining areas, often accompanied by musical or cultural events. There are various types of locations: converted barges as restaurants, terraces built directly on quays, historic sites along the Marne, and some accessible only by boat. Some have been around for decades and are among the highly rated floating venues, while others have recently opened to meet the increasing demand for outdoor spaces in the city. The offerings are diverse. There are traditional venues with musette dance music, rooftop cocktail bars, Mediterranean restaurants, and places that combine dining with entertainment halls. Most are located within Paris city limits, with a few found in nearby suburbs, particularly along the Marne in Joinville-le-Pont and Champigny-sur-Marne. Most operate mainly during good weather, though some remain open year-round in heated indoor spaces.
