FAQ

French Riviera Superyacht — Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best time for a French Riviera yacht charter?

June and September are ideal — warm Mistral breezes, less crowded anchorages and lower rates than July–August peak. July–August sees the Riviera at maximum capacity: anchorages in St-Tropez are crowded but the atmosphere is electric. The Cannes Film Festival (May) creates exceptional demand for yacht berths.

Is Monaco VAT-free for yacht charters?

Charters that begin and end in international waters are exempt from French VAT (20%). Monaco itself is not EU territory, creating structuring opportunities. We advise on positioning your charter to minimise tax legally — this is an area where brokerage expertise significantly impacts total charter cost.

What are the best beach clubs on the French Riviera accessible by yacht?

Club 55 and Nikki Beach (Pampelonne, St-Tropez), Eden Roc at Cap d'Antibes, Billionaire at Èze-sur-Mer and Mala Beach at Cap d'Ail are the most prestigious. Our team secures day-bed reservations at these in-demand venues in advance of your arrival.
