Nice Charter Itinerary

Nice Itinerary

Nice Yacht Charter
This is the Riviera at its most concentrated: seven days, seven ports, and never more than a few hours between them. The coast runs from Nice to Saint-Tropez in a single sweep, and the pleasure lies in how quickly the character changes ’ a principality, a film town, a fishing village that never quite forgave its own fame.





Short passages mean long afternoons. Anchor off Pampelonne, take the tender ashore for lunch, and be back aboard before the evening breeze fills in. The distances flatter the itinerary; the coast does the rest.





Every route we shape is a starting point, not a fixed schedule. Stay a second day where the light is right, move with the weather, or follow a captain who knows the cove worth the detour. That freedom is the point of chartering. What follows is one considered way to read the Côte d’Azur; the rest we tailor to you.
Day 1

Nice to Èze

Board at Nice and slip east along the corniche by sea. Èze clings to a rock five hundred metres above the water, a medieval village of stepped lanes with almost nothing sold in it that anyone needs. Climb to the exotic garden at the summit for the view along the whole coast. Anchor below, off Cap Ferrat, for the first night.

Day 2

Monaco

Four miles is all it takes. Monaco compresses a harbour, a casino, a palace and a grand prix circuit into two square kilometres, and it looks best from the water because that is the only angle that shows you all of it at once. Berth in Port Hercule. Dinner at the Hotel de Paris, or a table with a view of the boats and the money.

Day 3

Cannes

West to Cannes, a fishing village until the English arrived and then, abruptly, not. La Croisette runs the length of the bay, the beach clubs behind it. Offshore, the Îles de Lérins hold a working monastery and a fort where the Man in the Iron Mask was held. Anchor there for the afternoon; take the town in the evening.

Day 4

Saint-Tropez

Round the Massif des Maures to Saint-Tropez. Bardot made it, and it has been paying for that ever since with considerable grace. The old port and the lanes of La Ponche are best before ten. Then Pampelonne, five kilometres of sand and the beach clubs that made the place ’ anchor off, and let the shore come to you.

Day 5

Saint-Tropez

A second day, and the town slows down. The Place des Lices market on a Tuesday or Saturday morning is the real thing, not a performance. Climb to the Citadelle for the view over the gulf. The afternoon belongs to the water; the evening runs late and easy, which is what the town is actually for.

Day 6

Cap d’Antibes

East again to Cap d’Antibes, a wooded peninsula of high walls and long driveways. The Hotel du Cap sits at the end of it, discreet about a guest list that has never needed advertising. Swim at La Garoupe, walk the coastal path around the point, and take the Thuret gardens if the heat allows. A quieter register, deliberately.

Day 7

Nice

Finish where you began. Vieux Nice is Italian in everything but administration ’ ochre walls, narrow alleys, socca cooked on a copper plate and eaten standing up. Climb Castle Hill for the last view down the Baie des Anges, then the Promenade des Anglais in the evening. Seven days, and the coast has not repeated itself once.
