French Riviera Yacht Charter

The French Riviera has a magical microclimate. The sun caresses this silverine shore 300 days per year. In fact, blazing sunshine has turned this 100km coast into the greatest yachting destination on earth.

Hello sunshine!

French Riviera Adventure

Sunshine sprinkles stardust on every activity. Would you rather play poker alfresco by the lapping Mediterranean (in Cannes) or inside a dark casino? Or touch contemporary art sculptures on a National Park island (on Porquerolles) instead of shuffling around a museum? We thought so. That’s why Y.CO has planned the ultimate French Riviera adventure for you.

There’s just one problem with paradise. Everybody wants a piece. Only a private yacht can anchor off tiny islets where there isn’t a hotel for miles. Or reach incredible dive sites at dawn or dusk. Or escape the crowds to reveal cetacean migrations and piratical stretches of sand. Some establishments are literally boat-only. Including island restaurants and secret beach clubs only known to sailors.

Escapades on Land

A Y.CO Charter Specialist is even more essential on land. Take the clifftop village of Roquebrune. Hire the same wheels as James Bond in Goldeneye. (The 007 movie was filmed up here). Then jump off the cliff via a tandem parascend. Or sail west to Plage Pampelonne. One call from your captain will net the best sand-in-the-toes table in town, as your private yacht glistens in the bay.

In short, the French Riviera has adventures to suit oenophiles, bibliophiles, racers, dancers, overgrown kids and sulky teens. It’s time to dive in.

REASONS TO VISIT

WHY WE LOVE THE FRENCH RIVIERA

Rosé

Half the vineyards in the sun-kissed South of France are dedicated to the pink drink. Rosé comes in all shades. Blush grey. Shocking salmon. Deep ruby. The best bottles? They never get exported. Top beach bars like Loulou in St Tropez snaffle the lot.

Adventure

So inventive is this coastline, that each new sailing voyage to the French Riviera is a fresh adventure. Cycle the Tour de France route with a racing champ. Take a chopper to a rural Provence restaurant. Meet monks who make wine on a private island.
