A Brief Introduction to Cannes

Cannes is one of the most glamorous yachting destinations in the Mediterranean and indeed the French Riviera. La Croisette, a palm-lined boulevard, which separates designer boutiques on one side and exclusive beach clubs on the other is the nucleus of activity and where the majority of our clients spend their time. Each year in May, the world-renowned Cannes Film Festival marks the beginning of the summer, bringing an infectious atmosphere to the glamorous yacht parties and high-end restaurants you will find from the Palais des Festivals to Port Canto.

The Boatbookings Team comes to Cannes each summer to be able to organise the best charters and meet clients; day charters are among the most popular along the French Riviera and always the most memorable day out! Get in touch today and email charter@boatbookings.com to start planning your charter from Cannes.

Event and Corporate Entertainment Charter

Experience the electric atmosphere for yourself throughout the summer events in Cannes, from the prestigious Film Festival, Cannes Lions and influential networking events such as MIPIM, MIDEM, MIPCOM, and MAPIC. We would recommend planning in advance to secure valuable berths next to the Palais on the Jettée Albert Edouard. Berthing your yacht in the Old Port allocates unrivaled access to the Palais, which is the center of activity during the events. Entertain clients on board, promote your brand and be a part of the action.

A Cannes Event Yacht Charter is an unsurpassable opportunity for networking, raising brand awareness and hosting inimitable cocktail parties. Be amongst the leading tech, Fortune 500 and FTSE 100 companies that regularly entertain guests onboard yachts during events in Cannes. When the world's eyes are on Cannes, be sure to seize the opportunity and boost your company's recognition on an international scale. Chartering a yacht in Cannes for events provides the ideal setting to mix business with pleasure!

Cannes Day Charter

A day charter in Cannes provides you with everything you'd expect from the Riviera- choose to stay local and cruise to the unspoiled Îles de Lérins, complete with sparkling blue waters hidden between the islands of Sainte Marguérite and St. Honorat. Why not stop for lunch at the exclusive seasonal restaurant La Guérite, a favourite amongst the A-List? Or, continue to cruise southwest to taste the delights of the oldest restaurant in St Tropez, Auberge des Maures, once a favourite of Charlie Chaplin back in the '50s.

Here's a taster of the experience of a charter from Cannes to Club 55 in St Tropez to whet your appetite! For world-famous French Riviera glamour, you could even navigate northeast to find the peaceful Cap Ferrat, to dine at the restaurant on Paloma Beach tucked into the rugged coastline of the Cap, before stopping off in exclusive Monaco.

The Old Port of Cannes is home to many of the world's most luxurious superyachts. Step back in time and discover the charm of the Old Town, home to traditional French restaurants and cafes winding up the medieval hill in Le Suquet.

As one of the most photographed boardwalks in the world, the Croisette extends in a graceful, palm tree-studded arc for two miles. Stroll along with the high-end boutiques along the Croisette. Enjoy afternoon tea in the Carlton, feel the sand beneath your feet as you settle onto a sun-bed at one of the private beaches and spend long summer nights tasting the delights of beach restaurants.

Boulevard De La Croisette and Rue d'Antibes are the main shopping streets in Cannes where you can shop till you drop! They stretch nearly the entire length of the Croisette where you will find hundreds of boutiques where you will undoubtedly have no problem spending a whole day shopping.
