It’s Thursday 21st May and the action has already started at the Monaco Grand Prix! First practice is well under way, and this is just the start of the big weekend ahead. Although the true race may not be starting until Sunday afternoon, there is plenty going on in the lead up to it, with practice, qualifying, press conferences and parties!
Offering year round sunshine and steeped in history, the Bahamas is one of our favourite charter spots. Follow in the steps of Christopher Columbus who first made landfall in the New World here, pirates who used the islands as a haven in the 1600s and where British loyalists made their homes following the American Revolution. With 29 islands, 661 cays and nearly 2400 islets surrounded by clear turquoise water, it is a sailor’s paradise. Located just 100 miles off the Florida coast and a two hour flight from New York you can find yourself relaxing on a warm teak deck in record time.
This week is our Cannes Film Festival special, with some of the greatest charter yachts in the world gracing the bay and port of Cannes with their presence, it’s a spectacle on the water as much as inside the Palais des Festivals. In the port you’ll see the seasoned event yachts with their experienced crews working away to cater to the discerning taste of the film industry’s youngest and brightest, and one yacht in particular has caught our eye. HARLE is a 45-metre Feadship, built to the highest standard in 2007. She offers space for 12 guests to sleep, as well as excellent open social areas both inside and out.
With the Cannes Film Festival in full swing and the Monaco Grand Prix just around the corner, Cannes is hotting up for the summer as the place to be. Why not treat you friends and take a day charter over to the Cannes Islands for a break from the madness to go to the stunning La Guérite.
The red carpet was rolled out yesterday for the opening of the Cannes Film Festival, and now that the festivities have started, we thought we would have a more in-depth look at who’s lined up in port next to the Palais des Festivals for Cannes 2015.
