A Taste of the Exotic on the French Riviera – Èze

Why not escape the hustle and bustle and bright lights of the French Riviera this summer and take your charter east to Èze? The small village provides an escape from the busy towns along the coast, still maintaining its beautiful and picturesque historic buildings that date back to as early as 1306.

Climb to the top of the village and take in the panoramic views of the Côte d'Azur, or visit the Botanical gardens which are renowned for their collection of cacti and succulents. There is a wonderful collection of shops, art galleries and restaurants around the village, making it popular with honeymooners and tourists alike. The commune then extends down to the coast where Èze-sur-Mer is home to a stunning but narrow stony beach, making it a quiet and tranquil spot to escape the crowds. We can recommend a great place for you to spend the day on land, sampling some of the fine continental cuisine and hospitality the Riviera is famous for.

Take a day to unwind at the Anjuna Bay Restaurant and Private Beach. The décor is unusual and exotic with Indian and East Asian influences, lending itself the crystal clear waters that surround Èze-sur-Mer. You can relax on one of the loungers and receive fantastic service from the welcoming and attentive staff.

For dinner the restaurant at the private beach cooks some of the finest traditional and modern Mediterranean cuisine, accompanied by the sea view throughout. For larger groups there is a set menu available which includes drinks and is great value for the sumptuous food and drink on offer here. If you're looking for somewhere to eat on the beach, Anjuna Bay is a must for all parties.

Why not discover this incredible location through a yacht charter? RHINO1ANJUNABAY
We suggest RHINO, a beautifully luxurious Riva Crewed Motor Yacht available from Cannes, Golfe Juan and St. Tropez.

She has berths for up to 8 people and maintains a cruising speed of 34 knots, meaning even with 8 passengers she can still glide along the French coast. RHINO does this whilst spoiling the charterer for choice with where to spend their time whether it be on the sun pads on the foredeck or flybridge as well as a lavish and relaxing lounge area with dining space for up to 8. The Captain and his enthusiastic team guarantee an unforgettable charter on board RHINO.
