7-Night Riviera Discovery — Monaco to Antibes

Day 1 — Monaco: Embarkation

Board your yacht at the legendary Port Hercule — home to the Monaco Grand Prix circuit and one of the most glamorous marinas in the world. Explore the Principality on foot: the Prince's Palace and the Oceanographic Museum are within walking distance. A welcome dinner at a restaurant on the port sets the tone for the week ahead.

Day 2 — Villefranche-sur-Mer & Èze

Sail east along the coast to the deep, sheltered bay of Villefranche — one of the great anchorages of the Riviera. The medieval village is charming; the hilltop village of Èze (a 30-minute taxi ride) offers extraordinary views over the entire coastline. Sundowners on the aft deck as the sun sets over Cap Ferrat.

Day 3 — Cannes

A morning cruise along the coast brings you to Cannes — the Croisette, the Palais des Festivals and the vibrant Marché Forville for provisioning. Anchor off Théoule or moor on the Croisette for the full Cannes experience. Dinner at one of the terrace restaurants on the Boulevard de la Croisette.

Day 4 — Îles de Lérins

Cross the short distance to the Îles de Lérins — Île Sainte-Marguerite (where the Man in the Iron Mask was imprisoned) and the tiny Île Saint-Honorat, home to a working monastery producing excellent wine and lavender honey. Anchor in the crystal-clear water between the islands for swimming and snorkelling.

Day 5 — Juan-les-Pins & Antibes

Sail into the beautiful bay of Juan-les-Pins and continue into Antibes — one of the best-preserved old towns on the entire Riviera, with the Picasso Museum, the covered market and some excellent restaurants in the old port. An overnight berth allows a proper evening ashore.

Day 6 — Saint-Tropez

The most celebrated name on the Riviera — arrive in the Vieux Port for a stern-to berth if the harbour master has space, or anchor in the bay and go ashore by tender. The market on Place des Lices on Tuesday and Saturday is unmissable; the Annonciade Museum and the beaches of Pampelonne are within easy reach.

Day 7 — Coastal Cruise & Return

A leisurely morning in Saint-Tropez before heading back east along the coast, with a final swim stop at one of the hidden coves west of Antibes. Final dinner aboard or at a favourite restaurant in Antibes before disembarkation the following morning.

Day 8 — Antibes: Disembarkation

A farewell breakfast aboard before disembarkation. Nice Côte d'Azur Airport is 20 minutes by taxi.
