Glittering, glamorous and exclusive, a Monaco yacht charter offers a superb luxury yachting experience in one of the great superyacht ports of the world. Monaco sits on a broad, steep peninsula that bulges into the Mediterranean. At its heart, Port Hercules sparkles with luxury yachts. Monaco is small but perfectly formed with the best of everything; from architecture to art galleries, ballet to beach clubs, couture to the world-famous Monte-Carlo Casino and the most glamorous Grand Prix in the motorsports calendar.
On a Monaco yacht charter, you can dock your yacht in the shadow of ‘the Rock’, the royal palace shining high above. Marvel at the splendour of the Prince’s Palace, guardian of the Principality’s heritage.
Visit the majestic Oceanographic Museum founded over a century ago and since then fully devoted to Art and Science. Enjoy a stroll in the enchanting St Martin Gardens where typical Mediterranean vegetation and the luxurious nature can be discovered. While wondering around the old town, enter the Monaco Cathedral and contemplate the Roman architecture.
On a yacht charter in Monaco, enjoy lazing the day away in one of the elegant beach clubs under the sheer cliffs, or an afternoon of pampering in a world-class spa. Of course, you can also expect to find the finest boutique shopping on earth.
The stores of the Carré d’Or (Golden Square) include all top designer brands, with assistants ready to offer you a personalised shopping experience of the latest creations and fashion trends.
While docked in Monaco, yacht guests can enjoy a promenade around the stunning scenery of the Hotel de Paris, Café de Paris and the surrounding gardens.
In Monte Carlo, supercars line up under the palms outside the grand Casino de Monte Carlo, and the stunning belle époque façade of the Hotel de Paris dominates the skyline.
Dine at the 3 Michelin starred Le Louis XV-Alain Ducasse restaurant and finish the night at one of the plush piano bars, jazz clubs or A-list nightclubs, such as Bar Americain, Sass Café or Jimmy’z.
Anchor your yacht in the deep bay outside Monte-Carlo Beach for a stunning day of watersports and elegant meals on the bridge deck. In the evening, throw a cocktail party on your yacht’s sundeck in the reflection of the city lights of Monaco, or dress in cocktail gowns and tuxedos for a night of opera at the Prince’s Palace or thrills at the Casino.
For golfers, the prestigious Golf Club de Monte Carlo is famous for its challenging course and its panoramic views across the Mediterranean.
Each year in May, superyachts from all over the world converge on Monaco for the stunning spectacle of the Monaco Grand Prix, as the sleek, low cars scream and roar their way around sharp city bends and past the yachts lined up along the dock.
Other Monaco events on the yachting calendar include the prestigious Monaco Yacht Show, the Rolex Masters and summer festivals. Offering exceptional dining, boutique shopping and wonderful natural surrounds, a Monaco luxury yacht charter makes a perfect stopping point along the French or Italian Riviera.
A Cannes yacht charter hides many treasures. Cannes is a sybaritic heaven, the mecca of sun worshippers for over 150 years and further glamourised by the success of the iconic Cannes Film Festival. High in the hills you’ll find Provençal villages and views of extraordinary beauty over the shining Mediterranean Sea.
The famous little town itself is a delight with its winding medieval streets of traditional pastel-painted fishermen’s cottages, boutiques and restaurants and its quaint port with fishing boats. Originally made known in the 1950’s, The French Riviera town still holds the heart of jet-setters, models and celebrities alike.
When it comes to glitz and glamour, Monaco, St Tropez and Cannes have it all. This is the epicenter of luxury yachting with glorious weather, fantastic scenery, world-class restaurants and some of the chicest shops on the planet.
