The French Riviera

The French Riviera (also known as the Cote d’Azur) is a draw to many luxury travelers and celebrities. But for those who want to experience this area in true high style and elegance, a private yacht charter cannot be outdone. Not only are the on-board accommodations simply outstanding, but a luxury charter yacht also allows your group to experience all that the French Riviera has to offer, from nightlife to small coastal fishing villages, in whatever manner you desire.
