Visit Antibes For Your Luxury Yacht Charter!

Antibes lies between Nice and Cannes along the coast of the French Riviera. It is often missed out as somewhere to visit, but we know better – with Port Vauban, the largest yachting harbour in Europe, Antibes is a prime destination for your luxury yacht charter! One of the main sites in Antibes, the Château Grimaldi, once a stronghold of Monaco royalty and home to Pablo Picasso, stands tall as part of the city's history. Antibes Juan-les-Pins has a reputation for some of the best beaches along the French Riviera, so why not head to Antibes to discover more about them?

So, if you want to charter in Antibes, here are some suggestions for you.

REHAB, a Sunseeker Predator 68, is a brilliant yacht for day charter. She is a popular choice with our team, and will make sure your experience of Antibes and the surrounding French Riviera is unforgettable! She can cruise with a maximum of 12, so bring along your family and friends for a fantastic day out. Or if you're looking to venture further afield, REHAB can accommodate 4 guests in 2 well-appointed cabins. Her crew will attend to your every need, and make sure you get the most possible out of your charter.

Another great choice for charter is OUTSIDE EDGE, a Mangusta 72. She is kept in pristine condition with a can-do Captain, who will make some great suggestions for your charter itinerary, but will readily make changes if you fancy something different. She has a great saloon deck, so on OUTSIDE EDGE you can make the most of the sun, whether you're up for some al fresco dining or want to top up your tan. There is plenty of space to accommodate up to 7 guests in 3 cabins, or 9 of you cruising for the day.

Three of the most exciting Luxury Charter Yachts for the French Riviera 2013.

The French Riviera is synonymous with luxury, exclusivity and a high quality of life. It is therefore no surprise that many return every year to spend their holidays there. What most people do not realise is that the French Riviera takes on another dimension from the water, becoming one of the most beautiful locations in the world. There is something special about the jagged coastline with old medieval towns perched into the hillside with snow-covered mountains in the distance. We are able to provide boats for every budget from many ports along the Riviera and would love to help you organise the experience of a lifetime.

CALYPSO is a brand new 2013 Princess 60 luxury motor yacht, which we think will be very popular for single or multiple day charters from Antibes. She is a stunning motor yacht with a Flybridge, offering great space indoor and outdoor. She is a very sociable yacht, who we would recommend to those looking to charter with a close group of friends or close family. We would highly recommend a luxury day charter to the prestigious Pampelonne Beach scene, with lunch at Club 55 before stops between the Iles de Lerins on your return.

L’OR is a stunning Azimut 30m luxury motor yacht berthed in Cannes. She is an elegant and sophisticated yacht with a fantastic crew of 5, who will attend to your every need to ensure that you have the very best possible experience on board.
Why not charter this yacht for 4 or 5 days and head up towards the picturesque Italian Riviera and visit the quaint towns around Portofino. She will definitely not disappoint and we would love to help you organise a great charter.

OUT is a 47m custom-built Amtec super yacht, which has been recently refitted and updated to modern standards. Her interior is contemporary, yet elegant and comfortable. She has 3 decks and provides great outdoor space for sunbathing, socialising and al fresco dining. She has a BBQ and large Jacuzzi, which make for excellent outdoor entertaining. There are six large staterooms with 12 berths, ideal for large families or special occasions from the French Riviera to Corsica and Sardinia.
