What are the best departure ports?

The main ports for yacht charter on the Côte d'Azur are Saint-Tropez, Sainte-Maxime, Cannes, Golfe-Juan, Antibes, Nice and Monaco. The choice generally depends on where you're staying and the type of day you'd like to spend (creeks, islands or coastal villages).

How long does a day's rental last?

Most rentals are half-day, full-day or sunset. A typical day runs from late morning to mid-afternoon, with several swimming stops and a return before sunset, unless otherwise requested.

When is the best time to charter a yacht?

The season runs from April to October, with a peak between June and September. Midsummer offers the liveliest atmosphere, while May, June, September and early October offer calmer conditions and less crowded harbors.

Can we have lunch at the beach restaurant during the outing?

Yes, it's possible on most of the Côte d'Azur. The skipper can drop you off by boat or dinghy at certain restaurants accessible from the sea, notably around Cannes, Antibes, Saint-Tropez and Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat. However, we advise you to book in advance, especially between June and September, in order to guarantee an available table and landing area.

Does a yacht charter always include a skipper?

Yes, all our rentals include a professional skipper, to guarantee safety, comfortable maneuvering and a good knowledge of local anchorages.

How many guests can join on board?

Capacity depends on the model chosen and current safety regulations. Each boat data sheet specifies the maximum number of passengers allowed on board for the day.

What do I need to bring on the day?

We recommend that you bring swimwear, towels, sun protection and a change of clothes. Practical details (times, exact place of embarkation, any extras) will be confirmed before the outing.

Can you adapt the itinerary on the day?

Yes, the itinerary can be adjusted in consultation with the skipper, depending on the weather, how busy the anchorages are and what you feel like doing at the time, while respecting safety rules.

Do you offer outings for private events?

Yes, it is possible to organize birthdays, EVJF/EVG, photo shoots or corporate events on board. Simply indicate the nature of your project when requesting a quote, so that we can direct you to the most suitable yachts.
