EDIT: Found the picture; So it was in Ajaccio. These planes were on the opposite side of the runway and to the left.

Found close up pictures of these planes and they look like they are seaplanes. It must be maybe like a civil air patrol for ships in trouble or a coast guard?

Yes, and they get a lot of use during the summer.
