South of France

French Riviera

Cap Ferrat to Saint-Tropez, classic Mediterranean glamour.

The Riviera is a sequence of harbour towns and anchorages — Villefranche, the Lérins islands off Cannes, Pampelonne bay below Saint-Tropez. Berths are tight in season, so your manager books ahead and times the hops.

Anchorages we love

Île Sainte-Marguerite

Twenty minutes off Cannes, anchored above seagrass and away from the crowds — most Riviera charters skip it.

Porquerolles

The Îles d'Hyères are a national park of pine and white-sand beaches — the wild end of the Riviera.

Villefranche bay

A deep natural harbour next to Nice — an easy first or last night, with the old town a tender away.
