Overview:
A bright white silhouette on the Riviera, the Benetti B.Now 50m luxury motor yacht NOCTURNE brings a fresh, contemporary energy to every journey along the coast. She feels perfectly at home among the French Riviera’s polished marinas and glittering bays, offering guests a refined setting where every movement is smooth and every hour onboard feels well spent. Her design creates a natural flow between sociable deck spaces, peaceful corners for downtime, and interiors that feel calm, bright, and beautifully composed.

The sundeck quickly becomes one of the yacht’s most rewarding spaces, especially when the views open across Cannes' lively harbors and postcard-perfect ports. A glass of Bordeaux, the company of close friends, and the movement of the coast all come together here in a way that feels unmistakably Riviera. On the flybridge and the foredeck, cushioned sun beds invite guests to settle in and fully enjoy the warmth of the day, whether that means sunbathing in peace or slipping into easy conversation. Later, the aft sky deck sets the stage for open-air feasts, where Mediterranean and international fare is served with the charm of nearby Port Grimaud adding color and atmosphere to the table.

There is also a playful ease to life onboard that makes the days feel beautifully varied. The bubbling jacuzzi on the main aft deck is perfectly placed for a midday reset, especially with a chilled mocktail in hand and the sea stretching out around you. In the foredeck lounge, breakfast feels less like a routine and more like a highlight, with sea views that make even the first meal of the day feel memorable. From sunrise onward, the yacht offers one inviting setting after another, allowing guests to shape the day around their own pace and mood.

Inside, NOCTURNE welcomes guests into chic interiors where modern Italian flair meets a sense of ease that never feels overstated. Sweeping glass windows fill the main saloon and dining room with natural light, creating a bright and uplifting atmosphere throughout the day. The sky lounge offers another layer to the experience, equally suited to celebrations, a relaxed board game session, or a quiet indoor retreat from the afternoon sun. Accommodation is arranged across five beautiful double cabins, each with its own ensuite bathroom, ensuring comfort and privacy for every guest. The master suite feels especially well considered, with a spacious lounge, a king-size bed, a marble-finished bath, and a big-screen LED TV that turns an evening in into something genuinely appealing.

When evening arrives, NOCTURNE makes it easy to choose between two distinctly Riviera pleasures. Guests can take the chase boat ashore to experience the nightlife of St. Tropez, where the town hums long after sunset, or stay close to the yacht and make the most of the water toys in the warm evening air. However the night unfolds, the experience leaves a lasting impression because it captures the Riviera at its most enjoyable, with glamour, comfort, and fun all moving together with remarkable ease.

The use of all personal watercraft, including jet skis, is permitted only if the operator holds the appropriate license and complies with local operating regulations.
