YACHT EVENTS ON THE FRENCH RIVIERA: SUNSETS, BACHELOR PARTIES, BIRTHDAYS & CORPORATE OUTINGS

Events at sea on the Côte d'Azur with Clapi Boats

Organizing an event at sea on the Côte d'Azur means offering your group a moment apart: evening light, calm anchorages, views of the coast from the open sea and a relaxed atmosphere aboard a privatized yacht. Clapi Boats accompanies your’boat events between Saint-Tropez, Cannes, Antibes and Monaco, by building a customized program around your date, budget and group size.

We offer a range of formats: sunset champagne, bachelor / EVG, birthday at sea, but also corporate outings and events. The objective remains the same: simple organization, an elegant Riviera setting, and a day or evening that your guests will truly remember.

Sunset Champagne: the most popular exit

Visit sunset champagne by boat is one of the most popular formats on the Côte d'Azur. You embark in the late afternoon, enjoy a short sail, anchor for a swim if the season is right, then watch the sun set from the boat's deck, glass of champagne in hand.

We organize sunset cruises departing from Cannes, Antibes, Nice, Monaco or Saint-Tropez, depending on which area is most convenient for you. The skipper adapts the itinerary according to the weather and the best sunset angle, whether towards the Lérins Islands, Cap d'Antibes, Cap Ferrat or the red rocks of the Esterel.

For what type of occasion?

• Marriage proposal or moment for two.
• A small birthday party.
• End of seminar or team afterwork.
• An evening with friends before or after a restaurant.

The sunset format is ideal if you don't want to block off a whole day, or if you simply want to experience a yacht charter Côte d'Azur in its simplest, brightest version.

Bachelor / EVG by boat

Organize a bachelor party by boat (EVG or EVJF) brings the whole group together on the same yacht, with music, swimming, a relaxed atmosphere and a more original setting than a simple seaside bar. Clapi Boats can advise you on the type of boat, the cruising area and the most suitable timetable.

Typical program for an EVG / EVJF at sea

• Late morning or early afternoon departure from Cannes, Antibes, Nice or Saint-Tropez.
• Sail to a sheltered anchorage for swimming and music.
• Possibility of a beach club or restaurant stop accessible by boat.
• Return at the end of the day or at sunset, depending on the program.

We're always ready to listen and adapt the outing: a calmer format, a more festive one, or a mix of the two. The skipper remains in control of safety and respect for the rules at sea, even during a more “energetic” event.

Birthday at sea: a different way to celebrate

A birthday boat trip on the Côte d'Azur allows you to make your mark in a simple but memorable way: natural scenery, light, swimming facilities, ideal photo backdrop, and the feeling of being “far away” from everyday life, even though you're just a short boat ride from Cannes, Antibes or Nice.

What we can do for a birthday party

• Choice of boat according to number of guests.
• Organization of timing (day, half-day, sunset).
• Suggestions for a caterer, patisserie or cake partner.
• Coordination with a photographer if you wish.

We can also advise you on the best zone for your birthday at sea Lérins Islands, Cap d'Antibes, Estérel, Villefranche Bay, etc., depending on weather and season.

Practical organization of your event at sea

For each boat event project, we start with a few simple questions: type of occasion, number of people, desired date, ideal departure port and desired ambiance. From there, we propose one or more boat options, with a clear budget and an indicative program.
