What Private Charter Means
Your Boat.
Your Day. Your Rules.
A private catamaran charter in Cannes means exactly what it says: the entire Lagoon MY 40 is reserved exclusively for your group from the moment you board to the moment you step back ashore at Port Canto. No other passengers board at any point during your charter. No shared schedule. No route decided by anyone except you and your skipper.
Your professional skipper designs the day around your group's wishes. If you want to spend the morning anchored in a quiet cove off the Lérins Islands — which are 20 minutes from Port Canto — that's where you go first. If you want lunch at La Guérite, where our captain maintains privileged reservation contacts, he arranges it. If you want to sail the Esterel coast in the afternoon and return at sunset, the day is structured exactly that way. Nothing is fixed until you decide it.
The Lagoon MY 40 is well suited to this level of flexibility. Its shallow draft allows anchoring close to beaches that larger vessels cannot reach. The 5-metre tender gives independent access to any coastline. The rooftop solarium, panoramic saloon, and four private ensuite cabins mean your group is comfortable whether the day lasts 7 hours or 24.
For Day Charters
A private day charter runs approximately 7 hours from Port Canto — long enough to explore the Lérins Islands thoroughly, swim in the marine reserve, have lunch at anchor, and return to Cannes with the afternoon still ahead. The price from €2,050 all-inclusive covers the catamaran, skipper, and fuel for the agreed itinerary. Up to 12 guests.
For Overnight & Multi-Day Charters
The four private double cabins — each with an ensuite bathroom and separate toilet — make extended charters genuinely restful. Saint-Tropez is 3.5 hours by sea. Monaco is 3 hours. Corsica is a full day's crossing, rewarded by some of the most extraordinary anchorages in the Mediterranean. For groups who want to experience the Riviera properly, spending at least one night at anchor is the difference between a tourist day out and a journey.
Corporate Private Charter
A private catamaran is the most distinctive entertainment venue available in Cannes during MIPIM or the Cannes Film Festival. While others compete for restaurant tables and hotel suites, your clients step off the Croisette and onto a private yacht. No interruptions. No other conversations happening nearby. The Bay of Cannes as backdrop. Relationships and decisions form differently at sea. This is why our corporate charters are consistently re-booked year after year.
Proposals & Private Celebrations
Our skipper has made possible dozens of marriage proposals — beneath the Cannes fireworks, at anchor in the Lérins Islands at sunset, at sea off the Esterel coast. He knows exactly how to position the boat, where to anchor for the light, and when to disappear below deck. If you are planning something important, he will make it happen beautifully.
