The French Riviera has exuded yachting glamour and luxury since the 1950s. Its popularity soared when ports along the south coast of France began to welcome a new wave of international jet setters and yachting enthusiasts. Today, the Cote d'Azur boasts some of the world's most highly acclaimed luxury yachting destinations
A luxury yacht charter is the perfect way to embrace life on the French Riviera. Stretching from Marseille to Monaco, this Mediterranean paradise offers visitors a sophisticated, sun-soaked playground of fine-dining restaurants, designer boutiques, sandy beaches and calm coastal waters, all in a picture-perfect setting. There's nowhere better to discover the luxury yachting lifestyle.
The French Riviera benefits from over 310 days of sunshine per year along its 115km of stunning coastline. With sublime beaches, incredible golf courses, vibrant nightlife and nearby ski resorts, the region is nothing less than spectacular and captivating.
On your luxury yacht for charter in the French Riviera, you're free to focus on one destination or sail between them. Our travel experts recommend the following hotspots.
The name ‘Saint-Tropez’ evokes images of sunbathing celebrities, designer boutiques and luxury yachts. It's hard to believe this glamorous town was once just a working fishing village. But even today, the quaint, cobblestoned La Ponche quarter recalls the town's humble beginnings.
On its longest and most popular beach, Pampelone, a short excursion allows you to flit between the famously trendy Saint-Tropez establishments of Nikki Beach and Club 55. There are few better ways to enjoy the town than an afternoon relaxing in the sun or heading further inland to discover one of the region's many exceptional vineyards.
The Town of Cannes has been in the global spotlight ever since the Cannes Film Festival was launched in 1946. Nowadays, it's famed for attracting stars of the big screen and other celebrities from all around the world. A luxury yacht charter in the French Riviera, taking in the glitz and glamour of the Cannes Film Festival, is a popular choice with guests.
Cannes itself is a gorgeous location. A large, sophisticated harbour and seafront promenade complemented by a glorious beach make for the perfect yachting destination. Combined with an exhilarating nightlife and many high-end restaurants, it's got everything needed for an unforgettable yachting holiday.
The old town of Cannes, Le Suquet, sits high above the leafy squares and old port. The traditional narrow streets wind steeply uphill to the ancient fortifications and church. The views from here are spectacular, with the whole town displayed at your feet and framed by the sweeping Baie de Cannes and striking Massif de l'Esterel mountains.
MonacoAt the eastern end of the French Riviera is the principality of Monaco. It's best known for its glamorous residents, upscale casinos, yacht-lined harbour and, of course, the prestigious Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix.
Monaco is home to the elegant casino complexes of Monte-Carlo, attracting high rollers from around the globe, and the ornate Salle Garnier opera house, offering magnificent cultural experiences. Internationally acclaimed luxury hotels offer a sense of extravagance, as do the designer boutiques at La Metropole shopping center and the Monte-Carlo pavilions. Exclusive nightclubs and sophisticated restaurants provide further opportunities for pure indulgence.
Monaco-Ville is still a medieval village at the heart of the city-state and an astonishingly picturesque site where you'll find the palace residence of Prince Albert II. The city is predominantly a mass of alleyways, pedestrian streets and houses that date back centuries. No trip is complete without visits to Monaco Cathedral, built in 1875, the world-renowned Oceanographic Museum and Aquarium, the city Hall and the Saint Martin Gardens.
