The Bay of Angels and the Bay of Villefranche-sur-Mer<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"|\"<\/p>\n

During your yacht trip, sail between sea and mountains, and stop in Nice, which is one of the most beautiful spots on the French Riviera<\/a>. From the Bay of Angels, enjoy a breathtaking view of the famous Promenade des Anglais and its prestigious hotels renowned worldwide. A little further, nestled in one of the most beautiful harbors of the French Riviera<\/a>, make a stop at Villefranche-sur-Mer with its picturesque charm. Towards the bay of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, a resort favored by international fortunes, luxurious villas, well hidden from the roads, line the coast. And why not make a stopover in Monaco? <\/p>\n

Cap d’Antibes and the Bay of Billionaires<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Located between Nice and Cannes, Cap d’Antibes is among the most beautiful maritime sites. Sail along the coast to discover the white limestone cliffs and enjoy the panorama of enchanting coves<\/a>, then head towards the Garoupe cove and the Bay of Billionaires. On the program, villas and luxury hotels, among Aleppo pines, that can only be seen from the sea<\/a>. It’s the ideal place for yacht fans who love tranquility and authenticity. Continue your navigation to Cannes, its Croisette and the L\u00e9rins Islands, Sainte-Marguerite, and separated by a 600-meter stretch of sea, Saint-Honorat, a favorite destination for boaters. <\/p>\n

The Bay of Th\u00e9oule-sur-Mer and the Calanques of the Esterel<\/strong><\/h2>\n

At the edge of the Esterel massif, the magnificent bay of Th\u00e9oule-sur-Mer offers its crystal-clear waters, hidden coves, and palm-shaded beaches. Your coastal promenade offers a true change of scenery from Th\u00e9oule-sur-Mer to Saint-Rapha\u00ebl. The red rocks and vegetation contrast with the turquoise blue of the sea. Plan for swimming breaks and set out to explore the underwater world. Not to be missed: the Bay of Agay, Cap Dramont, and the calanques of Maupas and Saint-Barth\u00e9lemy. <\/p>\n

Pampelonne Bay and Canebiers Bay<\/strong><\/h2>\n

A must-visit destination for yachts and a true institution of the French Riviera<\/a>, Saint-Tropez is synonymous with luxury, glamour, and ultra-trendy parties. Pampelonne Bay is a magical spot if you’re a fan of water sports, wakeboarding, or jet-skiing. Its sublime Pampelonne beach invites relaxation and idleness. Canebiers Bay, on the other hand, inspired Matisse’s painting ‘Luxe, Calme et Volupt\u00e9’. Enjoy a glimpse of Saint-Tropez’s most beautiful villas. Sail along the coastline to discover<\/a> the natural and preserved scenery of Cap Caillat and the Bay of Blue Rocks. Enchanting places for an intimate lunch break. <\/p>\n

How can we not mention the Bay of Bormes-les-Mimosas, which joined the club of the most beautiful bays in the world in 2023. With the diversity of its beaches, landscapes that enchant the senses between the blue of the sea and the green of lush vegetation, it has retained its natural splendor. Discover the wild coves near Cabasson and the vast beach<\/a> of La Favi\u00e8re. Explore the village of Bormes-les-Mimosas, perched on the heights, its medieval quarter, and historical monuments such as the famous Fort de Br\u00e9gan\u00e7on, the French presidents’ holiday residence. In 2019, it was La Ciotat that had the privilege of being elected the most beautiful bay in the world. <\/p>\n

The Golden Islands and the Bay of Langoustier<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Golden Islands formed by Porquerolles, Le Levant, and Port-Cros are beautiful excursions to take aboard your yacht<\/a>. Wild beauty of the island<\/a> of Port-Cros and its national park, sublime natural and preserved reserve of Arbutus trees on Le Levant island, or the gentleness of Porquerolles island, there’s something for everyone. A true paradise near the Giens peninsula, the Langoustier Bay is undoubtedly the most beautiful bay of Porquerolles, offering wild landscapes and two magnificent beaches. Facing the Giens peninsula, the first one, to the north, is a white sand beach, while the second, on the south coast, is a dark red sand beach that’s a must-see.
