7 Days in the French Riviera

Begin your charter in Nice, one of the French Riviera’s most convenient and attractive embarkation points. Guests board the yacht, settle into their cabins, meet the crew, and enjoy time around the marina before the journey begins.

Spend the afternoon relaxing onboard, walking along the waterfront, or enjoying a first dinner ashore in the old town. Nice sets a polished yet relaxed tone for the itinerary, combining Riviera elegance, strong charter access, and beautiful coastal views.

Cruise east towards Monaco, enjoying a short and scenic passage along the coastline. The approach by yacht offers views of cliffside villas, elegant harbours, and the unmistakable atmosphere of one of the Mediterranean’s most iconic yachting destinations.

Spend the day exploring Monte Carlo, enjoying lunch ashore, visiting boutiques, or relaxing onboard with harbour views. In the evening, guests can experience Monaco’s refined dining and nightlife before returning to the comfort of the yacht.

Depart Monaco and cruise west towards Cannes, with time to anchor near the Îles de Lérins before entering the harbour. These peaceful islands offer a softer contrast to the glamour of the Riviera, with clear waters, quiet anchorages, and a relaxed natural setting.

Guests can swim, paddleboard, explore by tender, or enjoy lunch onboard before heading into Cannes. Spend the evening along the Croisette, dining ashore or enjoying the city’s stylish waterfront atmosphere from the yacht.

Continue along the coast towards Saint-Tropez, one of the Riviera’s most famous yacht charter stops. The passage offers a relaxed cruising day with opportunities to stop for swimming or enjoy the coastline from the sun deck.

Upon arrival, guests can explore the old port, visit boutiques, enjoy a beach club lunch, or unwind onboard. Saint-Tropez brings a lively and fashionable energy to the itinerary, making it an ideal stop for guests who want a blend of daytime relaxation and evening atmosphere.

Cruise southwest towards Porquerolles, a peaceful island known for its natural scenery, clear waters, and slower Provençal rhythm. This day shifts the mood of the itinerary from glamorous Riviera towns to a more nature-focused cruising experience.

Spend the afternoon swimming, snorkelling, using the water toys, or relaxing at anchor in a sheltered bay. Porquerolles is ideal for guests who want a calm day onboard, surrounded by island landscapes and a quieter Mediterranean atmosphere.

Depart Porquerolles and cruise west towards Cassis, a charming harbour town framed by dramatic limestone cliffs and Provençal coastline. The journey offers a beautiful change of scenery, with open sea views and a more rugged natural backdrop.

Depending on conditions, guests can explore nearby coves, swim in clear water, or enjoy a scenic tender ride along the Calanques. Cassis provides a memorable contrast to the Riviera’s glamour, adding coastal drama, natural beauty, and relaxed local charm to the charter.

Enjoy a final short cruise from Cassis towards Marseille, taking in the coastline before arriving at the disembarkation point. Depending on timing, guests may enjoy breakfast onboard, a final swim stop, or a relaxed morning on deck.

Disembarkation takes place in Marseille at the end of the charter. Guests leave with a complete South of France cruising experience, shaped by Nice’s elegance, Monaco’s glamour, Cannes’ style, Saint-Tropez’s energy, Porquerolles’ natural beauty, and the dramatic coastline around Cassis.
