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.

Charter a Luxury Crewed Catamaran Out Of Belize City – Part II

Following on from Part I of our Belize blogs, and having introduced a sample itinerary and the destination, we give you some ideas of the best yachts to charter in Belize.

Two of our favourite yachts for charter in Belize are both Lagoon 500s. Lagoon catamarans are a part of Beneteau Yachts, and are a fantastic brand of catamaran, offering both luxury and comfort in spacious accommodation. Catamarans are perfect for first time sailors, as they provide stability on the water, and a space that you would often struggle to find in a monohull of the same length.

DORIS is the first of our Lagoon 500s, she is a 2007 model, with 3 cabins accommodating for up to 6 guests. Her crew of 2 is great and for sailing enthusiasts, they would love to let you help sail!

Our second suggestion is the beautiful AMURA, which is also a 2007 Lagoon 500, which accommodates 8 guests in her four well appointed cabins. Her interior is gorgeous and bright, though the use of large windows, which not only allow the sunlight of Belize to shine through into the yacht, but allow you to gaze out onto the crystal blue waters surrounding you.

Charter a Luxury Crewed Catamaran Out Of Belize City – Part I

Belize is fast becoming one of the most popular destinations for chartering. With beautiful beaches and some extraordinary coves to explore, we highly recommend chartering there. For those who like to adventure, Belize is home to some stunning diving locations, and some exquisite backdrops for what will be the charter of a lifetime.

If you need to be tempted any more, why not check out our sample itinerary? One of our favourite parts to the itinerary is St George’s Caye, which provides a picturesque setting for a tranquil day on the water, from the luxury of your own yacht. St George’s is a private island, so you’ll be able to experience unspoiled beauty first hand.

For those looking to help sail, Belize is the perfect place to start, with clear crystal blue waters all around. You could even take a break and help the crew fish for your dinner, where Tuna, Mackerel and Cobia are often caught.

We highly recommend Belize for a charter with friends and family alike, where you can enjoy both the company of your guests and the activities on offer.

Stay tuned for Part II, where we have a look at some of the fantastic yachts available to charter in Belize.

Perfect for you, your friends, and your family.

Starting at 550,000 € per week, TITANIA is the perfect choice for an unforgettable charter. She can accommodate up to 12 guests in 2 master staterooms and 5 guest cabins.

With a large jacuzzi on the upper deck, cool off and relax with a cocktail in your hand, served from the jacuzzi-side bar.
