Crewed luxury charter
Yacht Charter France
Riviera & Corsica
France — 26 crewed charter yachts from 22 m to 72.2 m, sleeping up to 28 guests, from €16,000 per week (what's included).
The French Riviera is the classic crewed-charter stage — Cannes, Saint-Tropez and Monaco within an easy cruise — with wild, fragrant Corsica a longer passage south for those who want nature over nightlife.
The Côte d'Azur invented the superyacht holiday, and it still does it best. Everything is close together — Saint-Tropez, Cannes, Antibes, Monaco and the Îles de Lérins are all within a short cruise — so a week here is less about covering distance than about choosing your evening: a beach club on Pampelonne, the ramparts of Antibes, or the harbour lights of Monte-Carlo. The events calendar (the Cannes Film Festival and the Monaco Grand Prix, both in May) turns the anchorages into the best seats in the house.
For a completely different week, point south to Corsica: the red cliffs of the Scandola reserve, the sand of Palombaggia and empty maquis-scented bays where the only soundtrack is cicadas. Many charters combine the two — the glamour of the Riviera, then two days of wild coast — which is a trip only a yacht can string together.
May to September. Book early around Cannes Film Festival and the Monaco Grand Prix.
