Navélia Charters — Luxury Yacht Charter French Riviera

Q: How much does a luxury yacht charter cost on the French Riviera?

Day charters start from approximately €3,000/day for a modern motor yacht. Multi-day charters range from €10,000–€50,000/week depending on yacht size. Superyachts typically start from €50,000/week. All prices are indicative — contact us for an exact quote based on your dates and preferences.

Q: How far in advance should I book?

We recommend booking 3–6 months ahead for peak season (July–August). For shoulder season (May, June, September, October), 4–8 weeks is usually sufficient. Last-minute availability is sometimes possible — contact us to check.

Q: What is included in the charter price?

All charters include a professional captain and crew, fresh towels, water, and soft drinks. Fuel is not included and depends on the route. For some yachts, catering can be arranged on request. We provide a transparent breakdown before booking.

Q: Do you require a deposit?

Yes, a 50% deposit is required to confirm your booking. The remaining balance is due 30 days before departure. Full terms are provided in your charter agreement.

Q: Can I cancel or reschedule my charter?

We offer flexible cancellation terms depending on the yacht and timing. Rescheduling is usually possible subject to availability. Full cancellation terms are outlined in your charter contract.

Q: What is the typical itinerary for a day charter?

A typical day charter departs at 10 AM and returns by 6 PM. You'll cruise the coastline, stop at secluded bays for swimming and water sports, enjoy a chef-prepared lunch on board, and visit iconic spots like Pampelonne Beach, the Lérins Islands, or Villefranche Bay. Every itinerary is fully customisable.

Q: Are yacht charters suitable for families with children?

Absolutely. Many yachts in our fleet are family-friendly with spacious cabins, water toys, child-friendly menus, and crew experienced with multi-generational groups. We can also arrange nannies or child-specific activities on request.

Q: What water sports are available?

Most yachts come equipped with snorkelling gear, paddleboards, kayaks, and towable inflatables. Larger yachts may include jet skis, seabobs, diving equipment, and water slides. We can arrange additional equipment on request.

Q: Can I bring my own food and drinks?

While our onboard chefs prepare exceptional meals, you're welcome to bring specific wines, champagnes, or specialty items. We recommend discussing dietary requirements and preferences in advance so we can accommodate everything.

Q: Is there a dress code on board?

There's no formal dress code. We recommend light, comfortable clothing, swimwear, and soft-soled shoes (no black soles). Many guests dress up slightly for evening departures. Our team will advise based on the occasion.
