The French Riviera

Start at Pampelonne, with the toys in the water and lunch ashore at one of the beach clubs. Stay for the music or head back onboard to change before dinner and a night in Saint-Tropez.

Leave the Riviera behind for the clear water and quieter coastline of Porquerolles. Explore by tender, snorkel and paddleboard, then find a secluded anchorage for dinner onboard.

Cruise back towards Cannes and swap bare feet for La Croisette. Shop, stop for lunch and decide later whether the evening belongs in Cannes or around your own table on deck.

Just across the bay, the Îles de Lérins feel a world away. Seabobs out, music on and lunch onboard, with the afternoon spent between yacht and shore.

Cruise around Cap d’Antibes before heading into the old town. Wander the market and small streets, find somewhere good for dinner and stay ashore as late as you like.

Follow one of the Riviera’s best stretches of coastline, stopping off Cap-Ferrat when the water looks right. Swim through the afternoon before slipping into Villefranche for the evening.

Arrive in Monaco by sea, still the best way to do it. Spend the final day between the yacht and Monte Carlo, with lunch ashore and one last swim along the way.
