About Our Service in Cannes, Théoule-sur-Mer, and the Esterel Coast
Operating from 10:00 to 18:00, this 8-hour charter departs Cannes and heads west toward one of the Riviera’s most distinctive coastal zones. The Esterel Mountains are famed for their dramatic red volcanic rock formations, hidden coves, and extraordinary contrast between rugged cliffs and intensely blue sea. Unlike more urban or villa-lined sections of the coastline, this route has a wilder and more protected feel, which gives the charter its own identity. Guests enjoy the comfort and elegance of a luxury yacht while spending the day in settings that feel calm, photogenic, and naturally immersive. The itinerary has been arranged to allow generous time for swimming, snorkeling, sunbathing, and unhurried sightseeing, with only short cruising distances between major highlights.
Day at Sea Itinerary
10:00 - Departure from Port Canto: The day begins in Cannes with convenient embarkation and a relaxed departure westward along the coast. As the yacht leaves the marina, guests can enjoy uninterrupted Mediterranean views and settle into the rhythm of a private day charter shaped around comfort and scenery.
10:45 - Arrival near Théoule-sur-Mer: The first major visual highlight appears as the yacht approaches the red-rock coves of the Esterel region. The landscape here is immediately distinctive, with rich mineral tones and sheltered waters creating a striking natural setting.
11:00 to 13:30 - Swim stop and leisure among secluded coves: Guests have ample time to enjoy the clear water, relax in peaceful surroundings, and experience bays that are difficult to reach except by boat. Snorkeling is particularly rewarding in these calm areas, while sunbathing on deck or lounging between swims offers a slower way to appreciate the unique landscape. Because the route is not rushed, guests can properly enjoy the tranquility of the setting rather than simply passing through it.
13:30 to 14:30 - Lunch onboard by the red cliffs: Lunch is served with one of the most memorable backdrops on the Riviera - dramatic red cliffs rising above brilliant blue water. The contrast of colors, combined with the quiet atmosphere of the anchorage, creates a lunch setting that feels both refined and deeply scenic. It is an ideal moment for socializing, resting, and taking in the sense of place.
14:30 to 16:00 - Cruise along the Esterel coastline: The yacht continues with a slow scenic passage along the coast, allowing guests to admire hidden caves, rugged formations, and the coastline’s protected natural beauty. This is an excellent time for photography and sightseeing, especially for those drawn to the Riviera’s less urban and more geological side. The experience remains comfortable and elegant throughout, with the crew ensuring a smooth flow from one beautiful view to the next.
16:15 to 18:00 - Return to Cannes: The charter ends with a gentle cruise back to Port Canto, offering more Riviera scenery and time to unwind before returning to shore.
About Our Yacht
The yacht used for this experience is a 27-meter luxury charter model that brings together substantial deck space, comfortable interiors, and the performance needed for smooth coastal navigation. With a beam of 6.05 meters, it provides generous space for dining, relaxing, and enjoying the day as a group, while the 1.14-meter draft allows easier access to shallower bays and calmer anchorages - a useful advantage when exploring the Esterel coastline. Powered by twin 2180 hp engines, the yacht cruises with authority and refinement, making short coastal passages feel easy and composed.
Originally built in 2002 and refitted in 2009, the yacht accommodates day guests in a setting that feels both practical and indulgent. It includes 4 cabins and 8 berths, as well as 4 toilets and 4 baths for convenience throughout the charter. The onboard specification is extensive and well suited to a premium day at sea: air conditioning, Wi-Fi, GPS, autopilot, deck jacuzzi, teak deck, outdoor dining area, dinghy, coffee machine, dishwasher, bathing platform, TV, watermaker, bath towels, and bed linen all contribute to comfort and ease. Outdoor spaces are especially important on this route, and the yacht’s sunpads, broad decks, and relaxed lounging zones make it easy to enjoy long periods outdoors while moving between swimming, scenic cruising, and social moments onboard.
Where Riviera Luxury Meets Natural Drama
This charter is the perfect match for guests who want to combine high-end yachting with one of the Riviera’s most visually distinctive coastal landscapes. Rather than focusing on fashionable hotspots alone, it offers something more atmospheric - red cliffs, hidden coves, calm anchorages, and the feeling of discovering a quieter, more elemental side of the South of France without sacrificing comfort or service. For nature lovers, photography enthusiasts, or anyone seeking a private day that feels both luxurious and genuinely memorable, this experience from Cannes offers a beautifully composed answer.
