Term Charter
The French Riviera — the Côte d'Azur — remains the ultimate expression of Mediterranean glamour and the birthplace of modern superyacht culture. From the legendary ports of Saint-Tropez and Cannes to the sovereign splendour of Monaco, this stretch of coastline between Marseille and the Italian border has defined luxury yachting for over a century.
A charter along the French Riviera is a journey through the world's most storied waterfront: anchor off the Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Antibes, tender ashore for dinner at Club 55 in Saint-Tropez, watch the sunset from the terrace of the Hôtel de Paris in Monte Carlo, or explore the medieval hilltop village of Èze perched above the azure sea. The Riviera's calendar of world-class events — the Cannes Film Festival, Monaco Grand Prix, and Monaco Yacht Show — creates unparalleled opportunities for on-water experiences that combine culture, sport, and spectacle.
