About the experience

Depart from the vibrant heart of Monaco for an unforgettable cruise through the most refined gems of the Côte d'Azur.

From Menton to the Bay of Villefranche, this itinerary invites you to discover a succession of spectacular landscapes: cliffs, turquoise coves, secluded beaches, and villages with Belle Époque charm.

A seamless, intimate, and upscale experience, designed for those who wish to experience the Riviera in a different way—between discreet luxury and total freedom.

The cruise departs from Port Hercule, in the heart of Monaco, surrounded by prestigious yachts and the Principality's bold architecture. You will then set sail east, passing Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, with its wild landscapes and villas nestled in the rocks, before reaching Menton, a true gem with colorful facades and hanging gardens.

You'll then return to Monaco to admire it from its most beautiful angle—from the sea—before continuing to the jagged coastline of Cap d'Ail. A stop at the legendary Mala Beach is a must: accessible only by boat or a steep path, this place remains a well-kept secret.

The cruise continues to Beaulieu-sur-Mer, an elegant and peaceful destination, then ends in the Bay of Villefranche, arguably one of the most spectacular anchorages in the Mediterranean.

What makes this excursion unique is the variety of landscapes concentrated on a single itinerary, combining wild nature, prestigious architecture, local authenticity, and exclusive spots.

Unlike standard tourist tours, this excursion offers great flexibility: you choose your stops, the length of your stays, and the activities you want—swimming, enjoying aperitifs at anchor, snorkeling, or simply relaxing in the sun.

Cruising along this stretch of coast also allows access to places difficult to reach by land, such as certain coves of Cap d'Ail or the deep waters of Villefranche. The experience is designed for comfort, privacy, and pleasure, with attentive and discreet service on board.

It's the ideal option for celebrating a special moment, exploring the Riviera in complete freedom, or simply treating yourself to an exceptional break, between the azure blue and the gentle Mediterranean.

    We chose to charter the boat without skipper but this was finally refused by the owner. The crew was very kind with us. Finally the cost of skipper should have been erased regarding to the mandatory aspect of this part or included in the original price.

    The boat was in perfect condition. Roberto was very available to show us the coves and the coast of Menton and to explain the basics of navigation. We also used the SUP! To be done again, everything was great!!

    Roberto’s boat was great! We rented all day and went to the Italian side which was beautiful and had clear green water. We were a family of 9 including 2 kids & 1 baby. He was very accommodating and his Bluetooth worked great as we blasted music while swimming in the sea. Definitely recommend booking with him!
