Depart from the world's most prestigious harbour. Explore the glittering coastline between Monaco, Cap Ferrat, and the Italian Riviera.
Monaco is the epicentre of luxury yachting in the Mediterranean. Port Hercules — the deep-water harbour carved into the foot of the Rock — hosts more superyachts per square metre than any port on earth, and serves as the launchpad for some of the most prestigious charters of the season.
A yacht charter from Monaco gives you instant access to Cap Ferrat's billionaire villas, the deep natural bay of Villefranche-sur-Mer, and the Italian Riviera just 20 nautical miles east. From day cruises to Cap Martin to week-long itineraries to Portofino, the Principality is the perfect base for the eastern Côte d'Azur.
Monaco's calendar is built around two events the global yachting community plans its year around: the Monaco Grand Prix in late May and the Monaco Yacht Show in late September. During both, harbour-side yachts become the most coveted real estate in Europe — we secure berths and viewing packages for both.
May to October. The Monaco Grand Prix (late May) and Monaco Yacht Show (September) are peak events — book 6+ months ahead. June and early September deliver the best balance of weather and availability.
Day charters cover Monaco to Cap Ferrat beautifully. 3–5 day charters allow exploration toward Italy or Saint-Tropez.
Dolphins, Mediterranean fish, protected marine reserves near Cap Martin, and excellent snorkeling in the Larvotto area.
