An 80 metre superyacht charter at the Lerin Islands represents the pinnacle of what the French Riviera can offer on the water. The vessel carries twenty or more crew, provides an outdoor pool, a gymnasium, a cinema, multiple dining terraces and a tender dock capable of deploying two or three craft simultaneously. The Lerin Islands anchorage is large enough to hold a yacht of this size, and the Cannes waterfront is just fifteen minutes away for reprovisioning or a berth alongside the Croisette.
The pool of 80 metre charter yachts that come to the Riviera each summer is limited to the finest examples from Lurssen, Feadship, Oceanco and custom builders. Build dates and refit standards are consistently current at this level, and transatlantic range allows these vessels to arrive for the season from the Caribbean.
Weekly rates for an 80 metre charter yacht in the Lerins Islands area range from approximately 500,000 euros to over 1,000,000 euros. The advance provisioning allowance for fuel, food, port fees and extras adds 30 to 35 per cent on top. July and August are the most committed months. The Cannes Film Festival in May and the Monaco Grand Prix in late May create additional peak demand windows around the islands.
From the Lerin Islands an 80 metre superyacht can reach Monaco in under two hours, Saint-Tropez in three and Corsica or Portofino within a full day passage.
