Charter a Luxury Bareboat Catamaran Out Of St Raphael!

St Raphael is in prime position on the French Riviera, where you can sail to St Tropez within an hour, and easily within sailing distance of the glamour of Cannes, and even Monaco. The port is exceptional, with plenty of yachts of all shapes and sizes to see. Along the quay, there are numerous restaurants to visit before and after your charter, and nearby there is a great supermarket for all of your provisioning needs. For more information about a yacht charter on the French Riviera, please see here.

This morning, we visited some of the newest and hottest catamarans for bareboat charters, including the fantastic Lagoon 380 and brand new Lagoon 450! The catamarans shown in the photo above are Lagoon 410 S2 (left) and Lagoon 380 (right). We were extremely impressed with all of the yachts available, especially the Lagoon 400, 380 and 450.

The interior of the Lagoon 450 reminded us of larger luxury yachts, with a Bose sound system, a beautiful flybridge, and an extremely spacious interior. For a list of yachts available in St Raphael, please click here.

Your perfect day trip in the French Riviera – Part 2

Although the word ‘yacht‘ has now come to be synonymous with the beautiful catamarans, sail boats and luxury motor boats we see cruising the French Riviera. Its original name came from the dutch word ‘Jacht‘, meaning hunt and used to define the sleek and fast sailing vessels used by the dutch navy to pursue pirates in the shallow waters of the Low Countries. Later to become used to mean a vessel to transport important people, we’re sure you’ll feel in complete luxury on board FUNTIME – Sunseeker Predator 72 and MY DREAM PRINCESS – Princess 62 which best combine the elements of this ancient heritage.

FUNTIME, the Sunseeker Predator 72 accommodates up to 6 guests in 3 cabins. Her sleek lines and breathtaking top speed convey the indulgent luxury you would expect from a yacht on the French Coast. With a flick of a switch you can also open the hard top transforming the boat and enabling you to truly appreciate the beauty of the French Riviera. There is no better way to explore the coast of France than on one of the many on board toys such as the jet ski!

MY DREAM PRINCESS, the Princess 62 – accommodates up to 8 guests in 4 cabins and provides the perfect setting to entertain and host your guests with three separate setting areas, sunbeds, a barbeque and plenty of toys. Both of these yachts would make any trip along the French Riviera a pleasure and provides guests with the perfect yacht for a day trip.

A Guide to Chartering a Luxury Yacht on the French Riviera Part IV

Saint-Raphaël.

This is another town on the Côte d’Azur to have been visited by Napoleon Bonaparte. The harbour marks the spot where he returned victorious from Egypt, but also left 15 years later when exiled to Elba. The port was used to support the fishing industry and ship goods, yet the town has grown to become popular with tourists, who both want to visit the beautiful town and start their sailing holiday here.

If you want a catamaran for your vacation on the French Riviera, St Raphaël is the place to start. Take a look at this Nautitech 542. Available from the end of April, from 7,000 € per week, she accommodates up to 10 guests in 5 cabins. Your skipper will take you for an unforgettable week around the French coast.

Saint-Tropez.

The name says it all. St Tropez is one of the most talked about places along the French St-tropez Riviera, for all the right reasons. This summer hotspot is a playground for celebrities and jetsetters. A prime destination for those seeking sun, with a great choice of beach clubs for either lunch or late-night partying!

We can offer you a Wally Tender 45, fantastic for day charters around the Golfe of St Tropez. She is a sleek and sporty ride that is sure to get you noticed. There is plenty of deck space, perfect to get your very own St Tropez tan from lounging around on the sun cushions.
