Yacht at anchor off Cannes, the Lérins islands beyond

Yacht charter — Saint-Tropez to Cannes

A classic Riviera run east from Saint-Tropez to Cannes and the Lérins Islands — anchorages off Sainte-Marguerite and lunch in the Bay of Cannes.

A boat charter Cannes from Saint-Tropez makes an easy day; boat rental Cannes and yacht rental Cannes are simply other names for the same crewed service.

The route

The coast, bay by bay

A classic Riviera run east from Saint-Tropez to Cannes and the Lérins Islands — anchorages off Sainte-Marguerite and lunch in the Bay of Cannes.

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.

What the route takes in

The coast gives its highlights in order; we time each so the light is right.

Out of the Gulf

Past the Portalet tower and Cap de Saint-Tropez, Sainte-Maxime opening astern.

The Esterel

Red porphyry cliffs falling straight into clear water — the most dramatic stretch of the run.

Théoule & La Napoule

Sheltered water under the red rock, and a first swim before the last miles east.

Îles de Lérins

Lunch at anchor off Sainte-Marguerite, pines to the waterline, the Croisette across the bay.

Good to know

The day, plainly

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.

A berth in the Vieux Port of Cannes can be requested and is quoted separately; in season it is not guaranteed. Most guests prefer to stay at anchor off the Lérins and take the tender in.

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.
