A 70 metre superyacht charter in Cannes operates at the top of what the French Riviera can accommodate alongside its famous waterfront. At this length the vessel becomes an event in itself: a pool on deck, a cinema or sky lounge, a dedicated water sports bay with its own tender, and a crew of fifteen to eighteen who handle every detail seamlessly. The Lerin Islands, Monaco and the broader Riviera circuit are all within easy range.
The 70 metre pool available in the Cannes area during the summer season draws from the most respected yards in the world. Feadship, Lurssen and Oceanco build for absolute standards of engineering and finish, and the charter yachts in this category are refreshed regularly. Satellite connectivity, stabilisers at anchor and full entertainment systems are universal.
Weekly rates for a 70 metre charter yacht in Cannes typically run from 300,000 to 600,000 euros. The advance provisioning allowance for fuel, food, berths, water sports and crew gratuity adds 30 to 35 per cent on top. July and August command the highest rates. The Cannes Film Festival in late May is a secondary peak. June, early July and September are frequently better value without loss of sailing conditions.
From Cannes the itinerary writes itself: the Lerin Islands in the morning, Monaco or Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat in the afternoon, Villefranche-sur-Mer for dinner, and Saint-Tropez or Corsica for the longer run.
