A Guide to Chartering a Luxury Yacht on the French Riviera Part II

Nice.

Capital of the French Riviera, Nice has something to offer for everyone. A cosmopolitan city and the main entry point to the Côte D’Azur, Nice is a perfect place to disembark a plane, and board a boat. The famous Promenade des Anglais runs along the waterfront of Nice, and offers splendid views out to sea, and these views are just as good looking back to land from your yacht!

If you’re looking for a charter vacation out of Nice, TILUSA a gorgeous Ferretti 26, from €36,000 per week, is one of our top choices. With modern and stylish furnishings, you will feel perfectly at ease as you set off on your luxury holiday cruising the French Riviera.

Antibes.

Not always the first ‘port of call’ for everybody, Antibes really should be. Home to Port Vauban, the largest yachting harbour in Europe, we have plenty of yachts to choose from! With some of the best beaches on the French Riviera, Antibes is the place to go for lovers of sun and sea.

Whether you want a day out from Antibes or a few days out at sea, this Princess 60, CALYPSO, will give you all that you could want. With a crew of 2 who will meet your every need, there is plenty of space for 6 guests who want their own private getaway.

A Guide to Chartering a Luxury Yacht on the French Riviera Part I

The French Riviera is the perfect destination for your luxury summer charter. We have so much to offer all the way along the coast of the Côte D’Azur, as it’s such a popular destination with our clients. Whether you’re looking for a sailing yacht or motor yacht, bareboat or crewed, there’s something for you along this coastline. The French Riviera is home to glitz and glamour, good weather and great food. This section of the Mediterranean coastline is so inviting, but the roads can get pretty busy sometimes – the best way to explore the Côte D’Azur is on your own private charter yacht.

Monaco.
Home to House of Grimaldi and the Monaco Grand Prix, this may be the second smallest principality in the world but it knows how to get noticed. With the prestigious Casino de Monte Carlo and Hotel de Paris, Monaco is a great place to explore, whether you choose to start your charter here or visit as part of your itinerary.

A great choice for a day charter out of Monaco is DIABLO, a Cantieri Navali del Mediterraneo. Devilishly good looking, she cruises at 38 knots, so is perfect if you have a need for speed and style. Accommodating up to 10 guests, DIABLO is available to charter from 4,200 € per day.

Visit Antibes For Your Luxury Yacht Charter!

Antibes lies between Nice and Cannes along the coast of the French Riviera. It is often missed out as somewhere to visit, but we know better – with Port Vauban, the largest yachting harbour in Europe, Antibes is a prime destination for your luxury yacht charter! One of the main sites in Antibes, the Château Grimaldi, once a stronghold of Monaco royalty and home to Pablo Picasso, stands tall as part of the city's history. Antibes Juan-les-Pins has a reputation for some of the best beaches along the French Riviera, so why not head to Antibes to discover more about them?

So, if you want to charter in Antibes, here are some suggestions for you.

REHAB, a Sunseeker Predator 68, is a brilliant yacht for day charter. She is a popular choice with our team, and will make sure your experience of Antibes and the surrounding French Riviera is unforgettable! She can cruise with a maximum of 12, so bring along your family and friends for a fantastic day out. Or if you're looking to venture further afield, REHAB can accommodate 4 guests in 2 well-appointed cabins. Her crew will attend to your every need, and make sure you get the most possible out of your charter.

Another great choice for charter is OUTSIDE EDGE, a Mangusta 72. She is kept in pristine condition with a can-do Captain, who will make some great suggestions for your charter itinerary, but will readily make changes if you fancy something different. She has a great saloon deck, so on OUTSIDE EDGE you can make the most of the sun, whether you're up for some al fresco dining or want to top up your tan. There is plenty of space to accommodate up to 7 guests in 3 cabins, or 9 of you cruising for the day.

Are You Looking to Charter a Luxury Yacht for the 2013 Monaco Grand Prix?

The Monaco Grand Prix is one of the most prestigious Formula 1 races in the world. Racing through the streets of glamorous Monte Carlo, passing the Hotel de Paris and Casino de Monte Carlo, and along Port Hercule, home to the Piscine and La Racasse. The Grand Prix is to be held this year on the 26th May, coinciding with the end of the Cannes Film Festival, so is definitely going to be a big event this year!

One of the biggest races on the Forumla 1 calendar, the Monaco Grand Prix has no margin for error. With narrow and twisting streets, overtaking is almost impossible – drivers need to show off their most impressive skills if they want to make it to the top spot! Many people will flock to Monaco every year to see this celebrated race, and given there is only so much space in the stands, one of the best places to watch from is your own private yacht! Whether you choose to moor outside the port and travel in by tender to see the race or see the race pass by right in front of you from your own berth in the harbour, a yacht is the only way to experience the Grand Prix in luxury.

So, if you are looking for a yacht to charter for the Grand Prix, have a look at what we can offer you. If you want to watch the race from the deck, SENSEI is a brilliant choice. She is designed with extreme attention to detail, and can host up to 70 guests at berth – SENSEI would be a fantastic choice if you want to have a Grand Prix party!

QUID PRO QUO is also highly recommended for the Formula 1 race. With a beautifully designed interior and decks that invite you to kick back and relax, she is fantastic choice for charter. What better way to watch the race go past? Even when the race moves away from the port, you can keep up to date on what’s happening around thetrack because QUID PRO QUO has Sky TV – you won’t miss a moment of the action.
