The French Riviera has always fascinated with its elegance, exceptional climate and unique art of living. From Monaco to Saint-Tropez, via Cannes and Nice, this region attracts every year travelers from around the world in search of exceptional landscapes, refined gastronomy and exclusive experiences.
But there is an even more privileged way to discover the French Riviera: from the sea, aboard a luxury yacht.
Navigating along the French Riviera allows you to access preserved places, avoid land constraints and enjoy a unique point of view on the iconic landscapes of the Mediterranean. From your private yacht, each day becomes a new discovery: an anchorage in a confidential cove, a lunch facing the turquoise waters, a stopover in a mythical village or a sunset from the deck.
At Christel Pocachard Yachting, we create tailor-made experiences to discover the Côte d’Azur differently, between elegance, freedom and absolute comfort.
Why discover the French Riviera on a yacht?
Staying on the French Riviera already allows you to enjoy an exceptional destination. But choosing a yacht as your starting point transforms the experience completely.
Your yacht becomes your private residence in the Mediterranean.
Every morning, you wake up to a new landscape. You choose your pace, your stopovers and your activities, accompanied by a professional crew who takes care of every detail.
A typical day can start with a breakfast served on the deck, continue with a swim in a bay with crystal clear waters, continue with lunch in a restaurant accessible only by boat and end with a cocktail facing the sunset.
This is the magic of yachting: enjoy the most beautiful places on the French Riviera while enjoying a service worthy of the greatest establishments.
Cannes : elegance, cinema and the Mediterranean way of life
First essential stopover on an itinerary on the French Riviera : Cannes.
Known worldwide for its International Film Festival, Cannes embodies French refinement. From the sea, the arrival on the city offers a unique perspective: the Croisette, prestigious hotels and palaces unveil themselves from your yacht in a spectacular setting.
Your boat also allows you to easily access the jewels located nearby:
- The Lérins Islands and their turquoise waters
- The bay of Cannes, ideal for a private mooring
- The wild coves of Estérel with exceptional colors
After a day at sea, enjoy a gourmet dinner, an evening on the Croisette or simply find the calm of your yacht, anchored in front of the city lights.
Saint-Tropez: the mythical port of call on the French Riviera
Impossible to imagine a cruise on the French Riviera without stopping in Saint-Tropez.
A true symbol of Mediterranean glamour, Saint-Tropez seduces with its unique blend of elegance and authenticity. Its famous port welcomes every year some of the most beautiful yachts in the world, creating an incomparable atmosphere.
From your yacht, discover the must-sees of the destination:
- The old village and its picturesque alleys
- The Provençal market
- The mythical beaches of Pampelonne
- The famous restaurants and beach clubs.
For an even more exclusive experience, enjoy a mooring in the bay of Pampelonne and let your crew organize a private lunch on board or an evening under the stars.
Monaco : the prestige of the Principality from the sea
Monaco represents the very essence of luxury and exclusivity.
Approaching the Principality by sea is a spectacular experience. From your yacht, discover the famous Rocher, the Prince’s Palace, the Monte-Carlo Casino and the impressive yachts moored in the Port Hercule.
Monaco offers a multitude of experiences:
- Dinner in a gastronomic restaurant

After the hustle and bustle of the Principality, regaining the calm of your yacht offers a unique contrast.
Nice: between heritage, culture and good life
Last stage of this ideal itinerary: Nice.

From your yacht, discover the city from another angle before exploring:
- The charm of Old Nice

Nice is also an excellent starting point to discover the hidden treasures of the coast, such as Villefranche-sur-Mer or Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat.

Beyond the iconic destinations, the true richness of the French Riviera is sometimes found in its most secret places.
Aboard a yacht, you can discover:
- The turquoise waters of the Bay of Billionaires at Cap d’Antibes
