Monaco Superyacht & Coastal Charter: The Principality from the Sea

See Monaco as billionaires see it — from the water. A private half-day motor yacht charter reveals the principality's extraordinary cliff-hugging skyline, the Grand Prix circuit from the harbour, and the hidden sea caves and beaches of Cap Martin and Cap Ferrat.

What to expect

Your charter departs from Port Hercule itself, meaning zero transfer time. The captain navigates east along the coastline toward Roquebrune and Cap Martin, revealing secluded limestone coves inaccessible from land, before swinging west past Nice's Belle Époque promenade and the lighthouse at Cap Ferrat. On the return, the captain circles Monaco's harbour so you can appreciate the full, improbable drama of the principality — 2 km² of skyscrapers, gardens, and royal palace crammed onto a cliff face. A chilled bottle of Provençal rosé, a cheese and charcuterie platter, and the warm Riviera sun complete the picture.

Good to know

Book well in advance — particularly during the Monaco Grand Prix week (May) and Monaco Yacht Show (September) when charter slots are extremely scarce. Confirm your ship's all-aboard time carefully; plan to return to port 90 minutes before departure. All charters include a licensed captain; no sailing experience required.
