A 70 metre superyacht at the Lerin Islands is among the most impressive sights on the French Riviera. At this length the vessel carries fifteen to eighteen crew, provides an outdoor pool, a cinema, a dedicated water sports bay and multiple deck levels that allow twelve guests to spread across the yacht without crowding any single space. The Lerin Islands anchorage accommodates yachts of this size, and Ile Sainte-Marguerite north shore gives shelter in all but the strongest conditions.
The 70 metre charter fleet on the Riviera draws from the most respected yards in the world. Feadship, Lurssen, Oceanco and Benetti are all represented in the summer pool. Satellite connectivity, stabilisers at anchor and full entertainment systems are standard across the category.
Weekly charter rates for a 70 metre yacht in the Lerins Islands area run broadly from 300,000 to 600,000 euros. The advance provisioning allowance for fuel, food, berths, water sports and gratuity adds 30 to 35 per cent on top. July and August are the peak months. The Monaco Grand Prix in late May is a significant secondary demand window for the eastern Riviera.
From the Lerin Islands a 70 metre yacht can anchor within the islands in the morning, berth at Monaco for the evening and be in Portofino the following afternoon, giving guests a genuinely varied week without long passages between any of the stops.
