A 60 metre charter yacht on the French Riviera brings a pool on deck, a cinema or sky lounge, a beach club at the stern and a crew of twelve to sixteen to one of the world most celebrated cruising circuits. The route from Saint-Tropez to Monaco covers every type of anchorage: open roadsteads off sandy beaches, sheltered deep-water bays, historic ports and glamorous marina berths. At 60 metres the yacht has the presence to berth alongside in Monaco or Cannes and the draft to anchor in the coves that larger vessels cannot reach.
The South of France fleet at 60 metres draws from Feadship, Lurssen, Amels, Oceanco and custom Italian yards. Refit cycles at this price point are short, keeping interiors contemporary. Stabilisers at anchor are universal, and satellite connectivity throughout supports guests working remotely as well as those focused purely on the experience.
Weekly rates for a 60 metre charter yacht on the French Riviera run broadly from 175,000 to 400,000 euros. The advance provisioning allowance for fuel, food, port fees and extras adds 30 to 35 per cent. Peak demand falls in July and August, with secondary peaks around the Monaco Grand Prix and Cannes Film Festival. June and September are consistently excellent value.
The full Riviera circuit from Saint-Tropez to Menton can be completed comfortably in two weeks, or focused on the stretch between Cannes and Monaco for a single week.
