Cannes is one of the most storied charter ports on the French Riviera, combining direct access to the Lerin Islands with a deep-water quay capable of handling large superyachts alongside the Croisette. At 50 metres a charter yacht gains a full sky lounge above the main deck, a beach club arrangement at the stern and a crew of ten to twelve, raising the onboard experience significantly from smaller vessels without losing the ability to anchor in the calm bays west of the port.
The fleet at 50 metres in the Cannes area draws from the broader South of France charter pool. Benetti, Amels and Feadship are all represented, alongside Italian custom builders. Build dates from 2012 onwards dominate. Interior volumes at this length allow separate formal dining, a main salon and an upper lounge, giving guests meaningful space even in a group of twelve.
Weekly rates for a 50 metre charter yacht in Cannes run from approximately 100,000 to 220,000 euros in high season. The advance provisioning allowance covering fuel, provisions, port fees and water sports adds 30 to 35 per cent. The Cannes Film Festival period in May and peak summer represent the strongest demand windows. June and September offer comparable water conditions at lower rates.
From Cannes a 50 metre yacht reaches the Lerin Islands in minutes, Monaco in under two hours and Corsica in a day, giving guests genuine range without sacrificing access to the Riviera heartland.
