Day 1

Cannes

Your charter starts in the glorious Cannes, a glamourous seaside town that has become a haven for those looking to escape in unrivalled luxury. Like Monaco, Cannes has been famed as a playground for millionaires since the 1950’s, and also for hosting the glittering film festival in May every year. Enjoy an early lunch at La Palme D’Or before stepping on board your charter yacht, where you will be introduced to your dedicated crew who offer a 6-star service.

Day 2

St Tropez

Brought into the spotlight by Brigitte Bardot in the 1950’s in the movie Et Dieu Crea la Femme (And God Created Woman – 1956), St Tropez has, since then, been transformed into a hedonistic haven of glamour and elegance, without losing its charm as a Mediterranean fishing village. This iconic destination is brimming with exclusive restaurants and bars, designer boutiques and pastel-coloured houses. For those wanting a more tranquil afternoon, stroll along the cobbled lanes in the old fishing village quarter of La Ponche or take a long walk from beach to beach via the coastal path.

Day 3

Calvi

Cruise to pretty town of Calvi on the northwest coast of Corsica, famed for its glittering coastline and esteemed ancient history. It is unquestionable that the best way to see the beautiful sights of this port town is by boat. Only then will you be able to fully appreciate the true splendour of Calvi: the magnificent, impregnable citadel towering above the red-tiled roofs below and the charming marina bobbing with fishing boats and pleasure craft. On shore, you’ll be delighted by the maze of streets and the numerous opportunities to stop for a coffee or an ice-cream, before heading back to your luxury yacht for an al fresco lunch.
Day 4

Ajaccio

After a delicious continental breakfast you will anchor in the Gulf of Sagone, home to white sandy beaches perfect for lounging in the sun. Take this opportunity to make the most of the sparkling blue waters and renowned dive sites with the scuba gear and various water toys onboard. In the afternoon cruise to Ajaccio, the handsome capital city on Corsica’s west coast. Reminiscent of the Côte d’Azur with its sophisticated waterfront promenade, pastel-coloured architecture and bustling atmosphere, this is a perfect place to experience ultimate Mediterranean hospitality. Take a leisurely stroll down the winding back-streets and visit the house where Napoleon was born.
Day 5

Bonifacio

Keep your eyes peeled for dolphins as you cruise down to the southernmost tip of Corsica and enter the idyllic port of Bonifacio. An ancient fortress town, Bonifacio is centred around a citadel perched atop imposing limestone cliffs. Reach the old town from the marina via a steep, winding footpath and spend your day exploring chapels, ramshackle medieval houses and romantic hidden alleyways. Due to its proximity to Sardinia, you’re likely to notice an Italian ambiance in the air. Spend the evening in a local restaurant or to head back to your yacht for a sumptuous meal prepared by your private chef and inspired by locally sourced fresh produce.
Day 6

Maddalena

The next stop of your yacht charter takes you along the stunning coast of Sardinia, anchoring when you reach the vibrant Islands of Maddalena. Established in 1996, the archipelago consists of seven main islands and a multitude of uninhabited islets off Sardinia’s north-eastern coast. The main islands are in fact high points of a large valley, the low points of which are underwater. Admire the rugged seascapes as you explore heavenly turquoise lagoons and deserted beaches only accessible by boat. For those seeking sustenance, visit one of the islands’ waterside trattorias for a crisp drink and take in the scenery around you.
Day 7

Porto Cervo

The capital of the Smeralda Coast, Porto Cervo certainly lives up to its cosmopolitan reputation with a marina packed full of luxurious superyachts. Combining architectural style elements from Spain, Italy and North Africa, there is a somewhat utopian feel to the boutiques, cafes and restaurants. Head to the Spiaggia del Pevero, lounge around with a cocktail, swim in the crystal clear waters or explore under the surface to discover stunning coral. Breathtaking views, delectable food, plentiful wine and year-round sunshine are some of the perks Porto Cervo offers its visitors.
Day 8

Capri

The island of Capri epitomises Mediterranean natural beauty at its finest. Steep cliffs rise majestically from a sparkling blue sea, wisteria and bougainvillea cover the elegant villas and an ambience of tranquil calm permeates the air. Whilst known for a sophisticated hedonism, having been made famous by the rich and famous in the ‘50’s, the quiet coves, balmy climate and rugged scenery provides a juxtaposition that leaves visitors feeling utterly relaxed and rejuvenated.
Day 9

Amalfi

Appropriately named the ‘Pearl of the Amalfi Coast’, Amalfi’s green forests, azure seas and whitewashed buildings make it an iconic stop on your luxury yacht charter. Despite many of the historical buildings of the old city having diminished into the sea during an earthquake in 1343, the town exudes history and culture and is waiting to be explored. For those so inclined, the magical Byzantine inspired cathedral still stands tall and is definitely worth a visit. Anchor in the bay and explore the cobbled streets of Amalfi, with its sun-filled piazzas filled with the aromas of fresh coffee, jasmine and lemons.
Day 10

Positano

Located at the heart of the Amalfi Coast, what was once a quiet fishing village is now a dashing and deluxe hotspot. With traditional old houses scattered along the cliffs to the sea in a veil of pink, terracotta and peach, narrow, winding streets laced with wisteria, 5* restaurants and designer retailers, Positano truly epitomises the glamour expected of Italy’s southern coast. The fashion history runs deep in Positano: the town was the first in Italy to import bikinis from France and is the ideal spot for some retail therapy. The surrounding islets are equally steeped in history and culture, so don’t miss the chance to visit Li Galli or Gallo Lungo by tender in the afternoon.

Day 11

Naples

Naples and the end of your luxury charter holiday. Before disembarkation, be sure to make the most of your yacht’s amenities; relax on the sundeck or take the water toys out for a last spin. Having said goodbye to your yacht and their crew, discover two beautiful royal palaces, three ancient castles and the city’s Museo Archeologico, containing one of the world’s finest collections of Pompeian frescoes and mosaics. Stop off for a coffee at a local artisan café on a historic street and take in what the Amalfi coast has to offer.
