Description
16-Day Grand Tyrrhenian and Sicilian Expedition from Nice Marina
Nice Marina is more than a departure point - it’s a statement. Located in the heart of the French Riviera, it pairs scenic beauty with operational excellence, giving your charter an elegant beginning that feels organized, calm, and unmistakably premium. From the first welcome onboard, you’ll feel the difference between “a yacht trip” and a fully curated superyacht experience.
This is a fully crewed motor yacht charter with a 33-person crew supporting every aspect of the voyage. Service is highly personalized: dining can be adjusted daily, interiors can be styled to your preferences, and the overall tone can be kept serene and wellness-led or social and celebratory. Planning is streamlined with attentive coordination so you can focus on the journey, not logistics.
About Our Service in Nice and the Tyrrhenian Sea
Day 1 - Nice & Monaco starts with an afternoon cruise along the Riviera toward Monaco, with champagne service and wide, cinematic coastal views. The evening at anchor feels intimate even at superyacht scale - elegant dining, soft entertainment, and Monaco’s harbor lights reflecting across calm water.
Day 2 - Cannes & Antibes brings Riviera variety with relaxed coastal navigation. Guests who love shore time can explore marina promenades and boutiques; others may stay onboard for spa sessions and leisurely deck hours. As sunset arrives, the yacht becomes the main event again - watersports, cocktails, and a dinner service defined by precision and discretion.
Day 3 - Calvi, Corsica follows an overnight passage into Corsica’s dramatic northern scenery. Calvi offers turquoise water and mountain backdrops ideal for swimming and paddleboarding. The day is easy to personalize: active on the water, calm in the lounges, or a blend of both before a tranquil night at anchor.
Day 4 - Bonifacio, Corsica delivers a spectacular arrival through limestone cliffs and a narrow harbor corridor. The town’s waterfront cafés and boutique streets provide a refined onshore option, while the yacht remains the ultimate private base. Sunset service transitions seamlessly into preparations for Sardinia.
Day 5 - Costa Smeralda, Sardinia introduces Italian glamour in its purest form. Crystal water, upscale marina life, and relaxed coastal cruising define the day. Whether you prefer jet skiing and swimming or long, quiet sundeck hours, the crew adapts the pace to your preference.
Day 6 - Porto Cervo, Sardinia is designed as a full indulgence day. Boutique exploration, refined marina ambiance, and effortless hospitality define the experience. Back onboard, wellness treatments, pool time, and curated dining keep the tone elevated without feeling formal.
Day 7 - Portofino brings a romantic Ligurian pause with pastel harbor scenery and calm anchorage. Explore ashore or stay onboard in your private world of panoramic lounges and quiet luxury. The evening here often becomes a highlight: cocktails timed for sunset and a dinner setting that feels cinematic.
Day 8 - Livorno, Tuscany offers cultural access and a slower pace. Guests can take curated excursions or remain onboard for spa and wellness. The beauty of a superyacht is choice without compromise - exploration is optional, comfort is constant.
Day 9 - Naples marks the shift deeper into the Tyrrhenian. Volcanic landscapes and historic waterfront views frame a day that can be adventurous or restorative. The crew can arrange the day around your group’s interests, while onboard dining reflects the warmer tone of southern Italy.
Day 10 - Amalfi Coast is about dramatic coastline cruising: cliffs, colorful villages, and secluded bays that invite swimming and water play. The yacht’s expansive decks become a moving viewpoint, letting you enjoy the coastline’s beauty without the crowds. Evening dining onboard pairs perfectly with Amalfi’s iconic sunset atmosphere.
Day 11 - Capri adds island glamour and clear-water anchorage. Guests can swim, explore boutiques, or simply enjoy the yacht’s leisure spaces. The evening carries a refined energy - panoramic views, beautifully paced service, and the feeling of being exactly where you should be.
Day 12 - Palermo, Sicily arrives after an overnight passage, offering history and Mediterranean vibrancy. The day can be cultural or calm, depending on your preference. Sicilian-inspired cuisine onboard complements the atmosphere perfectly, creating a rich and memorable anchorage evening.
Day 13 - Aeolian Islands brings volcanic landscapes and dramatic anchorages. Swimming, snorkeling, and scenic cruising define the day, with wellness options always available onboard. The Aeolians often become a “signature” moment of the expedition - remote-feeling beauty paired with superyacht comfort.
Day 14 - At Sea Toward Sardinia is a sea day curated for comfort: spa sessions, cinema time, gym workouts, tastings, and long lunches on deck. The yacht itself becomes the destination, and the crew keeps everything flowing with calm precision.
Day 15 - Calvi, Corsica returns you to Corsica for a gentle final anchorage. Swim, paddleboard, or enjoy quiet deck time with mountainous scenery behind you. Farewell dining can be styled as celebratory or understated, always matched to your group’s tone.
Day 16 - Return to Nice completes the journey with a smooth arrival back to the French Riviera. A final breakfast onboard closes a route that balances glamour, scenery, culture, and true long-range cruising comfort across the Tyrrhenian and Sicily.
