The Catamaran Cannes Experience
Why a Private Catamaran
Changes Everything
A private catamaran charter in Cannes gives your group something no hotel suite, rooftop bar, or restaurant table can offer: the entire Bay of Cannes, from the water, exclusively for you. The city you know from the shore reveals an entirely different face when seen from the sea — and the motor catamaran is the finest platform from which to discover it.
Unlike a monohull yacht, the Lagoon MY 40 sits completely stable at anchor. No rolling, no discomfort, no seasickness. The rooftop solarium is large enough for your entire party to stretch out in the sun. The panoramic saloon offers 360° views in every direction. Twenty minutes from Port Canto, you can be anchored in the turquoise shallows of the Lérins Islands, swimming in water so clear the sandy seabed is visible 8 metres below.
The twin-hull catamaran design also makes the Lérins Islands and the Esterel coast genuinely accessible in a way that monohull vessels cannot replicate. The shallow draft allows you to anchor close in to shore. The tender gives your group independent beach access at any point during the day. This is freedom — not a fixed tour route.
Our professional skipper — a native of the Côte d'Azur with 15+ years navigating the Mediterranean — builds each charter entirely around your group. He knows every secret anchorage along the coast, every sea-access restaurant worth the detour, and every condition that makes a given day exceptional. His privileged connections at La Guérite mean your group can access tables that most visitors in Cannes simply cannot book. This is the difference that turns a day on the water into a memory that lasts years.
For corporate clients, Nikaia offers the most distinctive entertainment venue available during MIPIM and the Cannes Film Festival: a private floating room, completely inaccessible to others, where conversations happen differently. The best ideas and the most enduring relationships rarely form in crowded hotel lobbies — they form at anchor, with the Croisette visible in the distance and nothing between you and the horizon.
