French Riviera by Private Yacht: Nice, Eze & Monaco Coast

Sail the legendary Côte d'Azur on a private yacht, gliding past the clifftop village of Eze, the Monaco headland, and hidden sea caves. This is the French Riviera as it was meant to be seen — from the water, at your own pace.

What to expect

Board a sleek private yacht from the Vieux-Port de Nice and head east along one of the world's most glamorous coastlines. Your skipper navigates past the dramatic Corniche cliffs, the perched village of Eze-sur-Mer, and the glittering Monaco harbour. Drop anchor in a secret cove for a swim before cruising back with the late afternoon light turning the limestone cliffs gold.

Good to know

Half-day charters (4 hrs) comfortably return well before all-aboard. Book directly and confirm your departure time with the operator. Bring sunscreen, a hat, and a light layer — the breeze on the water can be deceptively cool even in summer.
