Dave was very responsive to our communications before the visit and this positive feeling continued throughout. We had a wonderful day on Cuba Libra and everything was perfect! From the warm welcome with coffee and pastries to the attention to detail with every individual guests needs. I would highly recommend renting with Dave for a fantastic experience.

Outstanding week with skipper David and Chef Aurelia. Lovely catamaran with excellent space outside both under cover and in the sun. brilliant swimming in quiet unspoilt coves and some great sailing with both sails up too. Boat was well equipped and comfortable. Will definitely return

Mont Saint Clair allows you to prepare while being protected from the north wind and the same on the way back. Sète is a very beautiful city with very beautiful sailboats.

Catamaran hire in France 

France has beautiful beaches with soft sand and crystal clear water. In the south of France, you can find the best places with the perfect weather to spend time with a group of friends. The best way to enjoy these places is on board a catamaran. On a catamaran, you can relax and dive into the refreshing sea. Several tourists say that discovering France by boat is one of the best experiences they have ever had.

In low season catamaran charter prices start from 150 euros depending on the type of boat. When it comes to chartering a catamaran in France, the prices vary depending on the time of the season. During the high season, the demand for boat hires increases along with the prices. The busiest months in France start from July to the end of August. It is better booked in advance to find the best boat for you.

To hire and enjoy any of the boats available in the catalogue, we suggest that you start searching two months in advance and start the process immediately.
