The Owners Club is dedicated

to helping Members unlock the full potential

of their vessels. Beyond being valuable assets, yachts

are vibrant communities of seafarers. By cruising widely and sharing their experiences, Members not only get

the most from their investments, they enhance the vessel’s reputation and reduce crew turnover.

All of which creates a smoother, more

rewarding ownership experience.

If St-Tropez is a wild party, Porquerolles is the gentle, sun-kissed morning after. Effortlessly beautiful, Porquerolles is what the French Riviera looked like before casinos and boutiques. Notre Dame beach has sugar-soft white sand and crystal-clear turquoise water. The diving’s excellent here. But there are no blinged-up beach clubs, and absolutely no traffic jams - because cars aren’t allowed. Instead, visitors swap Bugattis for bicycles, gliding along sun-dappled paths through pine forests and vineyards that produce some of the finest rosé in existence. It’s the perfect antidote to the excess of the Riviera: luxury served with a side of serenity.

Île de Porquerolles

Once a sleepy fishing village, now the undisputed capital of excess. The harbour’s charming, but prepared to be gawped at by tourists when you're on board. The old town is a maze of cobbled streets, quaint cafés, and markets selling everything from truffle-infused cheese to handmade sandals. Nearby Pampelonne Beach (best reached by tender) is an institution. A place where bronzed bodies recline on perfectly arranged sunbeds while waiters at beach clubs sprint across the sand delivering magnums of Dom Pérignon. If you tire of the glitz, the surrounding countryside offers a retreat into vineyards and rolling hills. St Tropez's not just a destination: it’s a lifestyle.

St Tropez

Home of the most glamorous traffic jam on Earth - the Cannes Film Festival. Best avoided unless you’re part of that circus. The Boulevard de la Croisette is the centrepiece—a sun-drenched promenade lined with high-end boutiques. At one end is the charming Old Port, but large vessels must use Port Pierre Canto at the other end. Le Suquet (the old town) is charming, with cobbled streets, authentic French bistros, and panoramic views. Offshore, the Lérins islands offer an escape from the madness, complete with a fortress that once housed the mysterious Man in the Iron Mask – proving that even in the 17th century, Cannes had an exclusive guest list.

Cannes

Nestled between Nice and Cannes, Antibes has all the glamour of the Riviera but with an old-world charm that doesn’t try too hard. Step ashore at Port Vauban and you’re soon in the stunning medieval Old Town where cobbled streets lead you to chic boutiques. For lovers of culture, the nearby Picasso Museum sits proudly within the Château Grimaldi. Then there’s Cap d’Antibes, a scenic headland where the walking trails offer jaw-dropping views over the Med.If you really want to indulge, Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc offers a range of stunning bars and restaurants. If you have money and taste, you’ll love Antibes. If you only have money, well, Cannes is just down the road…

Antibes

A place so absurdly beautiful it looks like it was designed by a Hollywood set designer with an unlimited budget. Nestled between Nice and Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, this is where the Riviera dials down the excess of Monaco and swaps it for something altogether more refined. The bay is one of the deepest in the Med. Ashore, pastel-coloured buildings tumble down to the water, and charming little cafés serve seafood so fresh it practically waves at you. Atop Cap Ferrat, Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild is filled with priceless art. Villefranche-sur-Mer is the Riviera’s best-kept secret. A place where wealth merely whispers and never shouts.

Waypoint 3

Villefranche-sur-Mer

A tiny nation where the world’s wealthiest naturally coalesce. There's an undeniable magic about the place. Both glamorous and ludicrous, and it’s the ultimate playground for those who think a Bugatti is a sensible runabout. One moment, you’re sipping Dom Pérignon '76 at the Café de Paris, the next, you’re strolling through the same tunnel where Ayrton Senna once danced on the edge of disaster. It’s flashy and over-the-top - and that’s precisely the point. Monaco isn’t just a destination. It’s a statement: je suis arrivé. Enjoy some downtime at the Oceanographic Museum and La Collection De Voitures - right by Port Hercule.

Waypoint 2

Monaco

Known as la Città dei Fiori (City of Flowers), understated Sanremo is where old-school glamour meets a dash of delightful Italian disarray. The streets are lined with faded Belle Époque hotels, while cafés overflow with locals arguing loudly over espresso. Your berth in Portosole Marina is centrally located, with exclusive shopping along Corso Matteotti and the historic Casino di Sanremo within easy walking distance. Enjoy a lazy lunch at the Michelin-starred Paolo e Barbara on via Roma, before visiting Villa Nobel - a museum dedicated to Swedish inventor Alfred Nobel who lived here. Then a luxury spa treatment at the Royal Hotel. or a round at Circolo Golf degli Ulivi, before rejoining your yacht for dinner.
