We had an amazing day with Serge and David on Zoe. The boat and the hospitality were first class. We would highly recommend a day on Zoe with Serge.

We left from L'Estaque to the cove of Sormiou via the Frioul Islands and the Bay of Monkeys. The landscapes are magnificent and you can also observe the monuments of Marseille from the sea. Just be careful: you cannot use a towed buoy in or near the coves.
Nous sommes partis de L'Estaque jusqu'à la calanque de Sormiou en passant par les îles du Frioul et la baie des singes. Les paysages sont magnifiques et on peut aussi observer les monuments de Marseille depuis la mer. Faîte juste attention: on ne peut pas faire de bouée tractée dans ou proche des calanques.

We anchored between the Iles de Lérins. A beautiful spot with calm water. Lunch on the pizza boat or at la tonnelle. Refueling at the other port went smoothly.

Gilles recommended the Lerins Islands rather than our first idea of Cap Taya, and honestly it was less far and beautiful. And the navigation all along the Esterel is also very beautiful.
Gilles nous a conseillé les Îles de Lerins plutôt que notre première idée de cap Taya, et sincèrement c’était moins loin et magnifique. Et la navigation tout le long de l’Esterel est également très belle.

Departure from Cavalaire, first direction towards the bay of Port-Man at the eastern tip of Port-Cros (35 minutes); very pleasant and well protected from the prevailing winds in the Mediterranean (Mistral in particular). Second destination, the fort of Brégançon (25 minutes); whether you like our presidents or not, this fort is very beautiful and worth seeing, anchoring is easy in a cove protected rather from the east wind (in case of Mistral you will not really be sheltered). Return to Cavalaire (40 minutes) along the coast, between Lavandou and Cavalaire, probably one of the most pleasant in the French Mediterranean).
Départ de Cavalaire, première direction vers la baie de Port-Man à la pointe Est de Port-Cros (35 minutes); très agréable et bien protégée des vents dominants en Méditerranée (Mistral notamment). Seconde destination, le fort de Brégançon (25 minutes); que vous appréciez ou non nos présidents, ce fort est très beau et à voir, le mouillage est aisé dans une anse protégée plutôt du vent d'Est (en cas de Mistral vous ne serez pas vraiment à l'abri). Retour à Cavalaire (40 minutes) le long de la côte, entre le Lavandou et Cavalaire, vraisemblablement l'un des plus agréable de Méditerranée Française).

Luxury Yacht hire in French Riviera, France

Charter a luxury yacht in the French Riviera

The French Riviera is the first place that comes to mind when you think of renting a luxury yacht. The coastline of the south of France is the ideal departure point for a day or a week on a yacht. From any port in the French Riviera, you’ll have beautiful beaches, scenery, crystal clear waters and some of the most picturesque views. It is easy to see why the French Riviera continuously tops the list as the top yachting destination in the world. 


 

How much does it cost to hire a yacht in the French Riviera?

The cost of chartering a luxury yacht in the French Riviera depends on several factors. The most important factor is when you would like to set out to sea. The French Riviera season runs typically from April to September with the peak months being July and August. If you choose to hire in these two months, expect to pay the highest rates. With the amount of yachts available to hire in the French Riviera, you’ll have quite the choice regarding the size and pricing. You’ll be able to sort from yachts starting at 1200 a day to 8,000 per day depending on your needs. 

Do you need a license to hire a luxury yacht in the French Riviera?

Due to the size of the boats, it is recommended that you hire a yacht with a skipper that has already mastered the boat. Luxury yachts are much bigger than your typical yachts and require more experience. Most of the boats will come with skippers so you can have a carefree vacation exploring the French Riviera coast.
