Between Nice and Monaco, the coastline changes character: limestone cliffs, the bay of Villefranche-sur-Mer, the peninsula of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, and the waters of the Principality. It's a narrow, spectacular sailing corridor where every anchorage comes with a panorama of the heights. Boarding is possible from the Port of Nice, Villefranche harbour or the Port Hercule in Monaco or Port de Fontvieille depending on the yacht selected. This flexibility allows you to optimize your sailing time and adapt the itinerary to your program, whether you're looking for a discreet anchorage in front of Cap Ferrat or a spectacular finish in front of Monaco.
