The route

Where does a yacht charter from Saint-Tropez to Nice take you?

To Nice and the Baie des Anges — around 55 nautical miles east, with the Promenade des Anglais, Villefranche and Cap Ferrat along the way.

We can run it as one long day with the wind behind us, or draw it out over a cruise with nights at anchor. The stops are yours to choose; we hold the helm and the timing.

Nice sits midway along the eastern Riviera, and many guests fold it into a multi-day cruise. For the full route from Saint-Tropez to Monaco, see our guide to yacht charter on the French Riviera.

Good to know

What should you know before a yacht charter from Saint-Tropez to Nice?

From around €1,500 a day (11 m day boat) and €25,000 a week (20–30 m motor yacht), plus APA (25–35 %) and 20 % VAT, per published 2026 Riviera brackets — quoted individually by Yats. Sources: 2026 weekly brackets — International Yachts Charter & Brokerage — Monaco Yacht Show 2026 charter rates (retrieved 5 September 2026) ; day rates — Monaco Boats (The S Collection) — Yacht charter prices in Monaco ; APA: "median 35 percent of the base fee" across MYBA listings (Vital Charters, 2026) ; crew gratuity 5–15 % (MYBA guidance) ; 20 % VAT: service-public.gouv.fr ; berths: Port de Saint-Tropez — Tarifs 2026 (tarifs journaliers, € TTC / m²) (xlsx, retrieved 5 September 2026).

Yes, in good conditions — it is a long, full day under way with brief stops. Many prefer to spread it over a short cruise with a night at anchor; we advise on what suits your party.

Port de Nice is small and busy; Villefranche just east offers a deep, sheltered anchorage a short tender ride from the old town. Either can be arranged — the berth is quoted separately.

Of course. Antibes, Cannes, Villefranche or a longer swim at the Lérins — the route is a suggestion. Tell us what you'd like to see and we shape it around the sea.

On quote. Distance, yacht, season and any berthing all factor in, so we price each itinerary individually — clearly and in full before you confirm.
