Why charter a yacht in Beaulieu-sur-Mer

Beaulieu-sur-Mer from the water — yacht charter atmosphere
On the water

Privacy, pace, and places you cannot reach by road.

Introduction

Why charter a yacht in Beaulieu-sur-Mer.

01

A luxury yacht charter Beaulieu-sur-Mer rewards guests with a combination you cannot replicate from a hotel: total privacy, an itinerary that flexes around your party, and access to coves, restaurants and reefs that road-bound travellers simply never see. Blue Ocean Club curates Beaulieu-sur-Mer cruises across motor yachts, sailing yachts, catamarans and superyachts — every option live-priced against the global live availability feed and presented with our 100% best-price guarantee.

02

Beaulieu-sur-Mer sits at the heart of one of the world's great cruising grounds. Days unfold at the pace of the sea: long swims off the platform, lunch at a beach club where your concierge has held the best table, an afternoon cruise to a quieter anchorage, cocktails on the bow as the light softens. The captain rewrites tomorrow's plan based on tonight's weather and your party's mood.

03

We work with a small list of crewed yacht charter Beaulieu-sur-Mer operators we know personally — captains we have cruised with, chefs whose tasting menus we have eaten, stewardesses who know your children's names by the end of day one. The result is a charter that feels less like a booking and more like a private invitation.

What to Expect

Yacht charter in Beaulieu-sur-Mer — what to expect.

Season, route, hull and investment — the four things every guest asks before we lock a yacht.

01
The season

The Beaulieu-sur-Mer charter season runs from late May through early October, with warm settled days, calm mornings and a reliable afternoon breeze. Sea temperatures climb into the mid-20s°C through high summer and the prevailing winds rarely exceed a comfortable Force 4.

02
The itinerary

Signature anchorages, swim-only coves and a handful of marquee harbours form the backbone of any Beaulieu-sur-Mer sailing itinerary — your captain rotates between them daily based on wind, swell and the rhythm of your party.

03
The yacht

A crewed catamaran in the 50–70 ft range remains the most versatile choice for Beaulieu-sur-Mer, with shallow draft for tucked-away bays and the deck space families and groups expect. Couples often prefer a sailing yacht of 50–60 ft; larger parties step up to a motor yacht or superyacht with full crew.

04
The investment

Typical luxury yacht charter Beaulieu-sur-Mer cost starts from around €25,000 per week for a comfortable crewed catamaran and scales to €150,000–€500,000+ for a 40 m superyacht — base rates are exclusive of APA (usually 25–35%), fuel, VAT and crew gratuity. Our charter managers run live availability against your dates and present the best three options, side by side, with a 100% best-price guarantee. Minimum charter duration is seven nights in peak season; short-week and split itineraries are available in shoulder months. Tell us your dates, party size and preferred yacht style and we will revert within the day — by email, WhatsApp or a 20-minute call with the broker who will run your charter.

Editorial guide

Beaulieu-sur-Mer charter guide, in depth

In depth

Beaulieu-sur-Mer charter, in depth.

Beaulieu-sur-Mer sits in a bay protected by the Cap Ferrat peninsula to the west and the cliffs of Èze to the east, which gives it an unusually calm microclimate and one of the better all-weather basins on this stretch of coast.

The Port de Beaulieu-sur-Mer is a working marina with full services rather than a scene, which is exactly its appeal: guests can walk to the promenade, the Villa Kérylos and the station, while Monaco, Nice and Cap Ferrat are all short transfers away. It is a common alternative when Port Hercule and Port Lympia are full during event weeks.

Local Insider Tips

Insider knowledge for your Beaulieu-sur-Mer charter.

  • Beaulieu is the practical fallback berth during the Monaco Grand Prix and Monaco Yacht Show weeks.
  • The Villa Kérylos, a full-scale reconstruction of a Greek villa, is a five-minute walk from the quay.

Team Pick

A personal recommendation from Élodie.

Hidden anchorage
Baie des Fourmis
Beaulieu-sur-Mer
“My hidden gem in Beaulieu-sur-Mer is Baie des Fourmis — drop the anchor mid-morning before the day-boats arrive and you'll have it almost to yourself. Late June and early September are my personal favourite weeks — warm water, lighter traffic, and the crews are at their sharpest. Beaulieu is the practical fallback berth during the Monaco Grand Prix and Monaco Yacht Show weeks.”

Beaulieu-sur-Mer charter planning detail and FAQs

Questions

Beaulieu-sur-Mer yacht charter FAQs.

How much does a luxury yacht charter in Beaulieu-sur-Mer cost?+
Weekly rates in Beaulieu-sur-Mer typically range from €25,000 for a mid-size sailing yacht or catamaran up to €350,000+ for a 50m superyacht. Final cost depends on yacht size, age, season and the inclusion of expenses such as fuel, dockage and provisioning (APA). Blue Ocean Club presents a fully transparent quotation with our 100% best-price guarantee.
What is the best yacht type for Beaulieu-sur-Mer?+
Motor yachts cover longer distances quickly and suit guests who prioritise interior comfort. Catamarans offer stability, generous deck space and shallow draft access to coves. Classic sailing yachts deliver the most authentic experience. For families and groups of eight or more we frequently recommend a 25–40m motor yacht or large catamaran in Beaulieu-sur-Mer.
Do I need a sailing licence to charter a yacht in Beaulieu-sur-Mer?+
No. Every yacht we present is a crewed charter — captain, chef, deckhand and stewardess are included. You arrive, embark, and the crew handles navigation, meals, water toys and concierge logistics.
What is included in a crewed yacht charter?+
The base charter fee covers the yacht itself, the professional crew, their wages, insurance and the use of all standard water toys on board. Fuel, food, beverages, dockage, port taxes and concierge bookings are settled through an Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA) — typically 25–35% of the charter fee — with unused funds returned at the end of the cruise.
When is the best time of year to charter a yacht in Beaulieu-sur-Mer?+
The prime window in Beaulieu-sur-Mer runs late May through early October, when the sea is warm, the wind reliable and the coast at its most photogenic. Shoulder months offer excellent value and noticeably quieter anchorages.
Which are the best anchorages and bays in Beaulieu-sur-Mer?+
Skippers typically rotate between a handful of signature anchorages in Beaulieu-sur-Mer — sheltered swimming bays for lunch, a postcard cove for sunset and a lively port for dinner. Your captain tailors the daily plan to wind, swell and your party's pace, and our concierge holds back-up berths at the most in-demand marinas.
What are the entry requirements, visas and cruising permits for Beaulieu-sur-Mer?+
Most guests arrive on a tourist visa or under a visa-waiver agreement. The yacht's captain handles maritime clearance, crew lists and any cruising permits on your behalf. We send a pre-charter checklist covering passports, visa status, customs declarations and any local tourism tax so embarkation day is friction-free.
What does a typical 7-night Beaulieu-sur-Mer yacht charter itinerary look like?+
A classic seven-night charter in Beaulieu-sur-Mer blends marquee harbours, quiet swim stops and one or two long anchorage nights. We draft a sample route with your captain before boarding and refine it daily on board — guests typically cover 120–200 nautical miles across the week without ever feeling rushed.
Can you arrange a private chef and tailored menus on board in Beaulieu-sur-Mer?+
Yes. Every crewed yacht we recommend in Beaulieu-sur-Mer carries a professional chef. We share a detailed preference sheet ahead of your charter — covering dietary requirements, favourite wines, children's menus, dinner-party concepts and shore-side restaurant reservations — so the galley is provisioned to your taste before you step aboard.
How far in advance should I book a yacht in Beaulieu-sur-Mer?+
For peak weeks (mid-July to late-August in the Mediterranean, Christmas and Easter in the Caribbean) the best yachts are typically reserved 6–9 months ahead. Shoulder-season weeks can be confirmed comfortably 1–3 months out. Our real-time availability feed surfaces last-minute openings as they appear.
Are children welcome on board?+
Absolutely. Many of our crews are highly experienced with families — child-safe netting, paddleboards, sea-bobs, inflatable toys and tailored menus are routinely arranged. We can also organise a dedicated nanny or tutor on request.
What water toys and tenders are typically available in Beaulieu-sur-Mer?+
Standard inventories include a tender (often 6–9m), seabobs, e-foils, jet-skis, paddleboards, wakeboards, snorkelling gear and inflatable platforms. Larger yachts carry diving equipment, jet-surfs, submarines and full PADI-rated dive teams.
Can you arrange helicopter, jet or private transfers?+
Yes. We routinely arrange door-to-yacht transfers — private jet, helicopter, chauffeured car or marina pick-up — so your party steps from runway to passerelle without friction.
Is gratuity included in the Beaulieu-sur-Mer charter fee?+
Crew gratuity is customary and discretionary, typically 5–15% of the base charter fee, settled at the end of the cruise in cash or by transfer. We provide clear guidance ahead of disembarkation.
What happens if the weather turns during my Beaulieu-sur-Mer charter?+
Your captain monitors forecasts continuously and adjusts the itinerary to keep you on calm water and in beautiful anchorages. The cruising plan is always flexible — a charter is a route sketch, not a fixed schedule.

Decision support

Is Beaulieu-sur-Mer the right choice for your charter?

Why choose Beaulieu-sur-Mer

The Western Mediterranean is the most infrastructure-dense cruising ground in the world: deep-water superyacht berths, private-jet gateways, Michelin dining and world-class shopping sit inside an hour of each other, and passages between harbours are short enough that guests are almost never at sea when they would rather be ashore.

Who should look elsewhere: Travellers who want empty anchorages, wilderness or a low-key trip in peak summer. July and August are crowded, expensive and heavily booked; the same coast in May or October is a materially different experience.

How long to stay: Seven nights covers the core harbours comfortably. Ten to fourteen nights allows Corsica or Sardinia to be added without rushing.

Luxury highlights

  • Michelin-starred dining within tender reach of the berth
  • Superyacht berths in historic harbours
  • Beach clubs with direct tender access
