Unforgettable Routes from Port Vauban
Departing from Port Vauban, Europe’s largest marina, you are perfectly positioned to explore the most iconic spots in the region. A short cruise south brings you to the Cap d'Antibes, where you can anchor in the Baie des Milliardaires for a swim near the legendary Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc. If you head west, the Lerins Islands off the coast of Cannes offer a peaceful sanctuary with turquoise lagoons ideal for a long lunch on deck. Alternatively, cruising east toward Nice and Villefranche-sur-Mer reveals dramatic cliffs and deep blue bays that are best appreciated from the privacy of your own boat, away from the crowded public beaches.
Pricing and Seamless Booking Process
The cost of day boat rentals in Antibes varies based on the size of the vessel, the season, and the specific amenities requested. Small motorboats may start around €600 per day, while mid-range luxury cruisers typically range from €1,500 to €3,500. For those seeking the pinnacle of luxury, larger yachts are available at higher price points. Our booking process is designed for simplicity: once you select your preferred date and boat, our concierge team handles the logistics. We provide clear contracts and secure payment methods, ensuring that your transition from the docks of Antibes to the open sea is smooth, professional, and entirely stress-free.
Planning Your Visit and Luxury Add-ons
The best season for boating in Antibes runs from May through late September, with July and August offering the warmest waters and a vibrant social atmosphere. For a more tranquil experience, the 'golden weeks' of June and September provide perfect weather with fewer crowds. To elevate your experience, many of our clients combine their maritime excursion with a stay in one of our exclusive villas in the Cap d'Antibes. We can also arrange for private catering on board, featuring local Provençal delicacies and chilled rosé, or coordinate jet-ski deliveries directly to your yacht for an afternoon of high-speed excitement on the water.

FAQ
What is included in the price of day boat rentals in Antibes?
Most rentals include the boat, a professional skipper, and basic insurance. Fuel is often charged separately based on consumption, though some 'all-inclusive' packages for smaller boats may cover it. We always provide a transparent breakdown of costs before you confirm your booking to ensure no surprises at the dock.
Do I need a license for day boat rentals?
If you are renting a boat with a skipper, no license is required as the captain is responsible for the vessel. For bareboat rentals, you must provide a valid international boating license and a nautical CV. Most of our luxury clients prefer the skippered option to fully enjoy the scenery and local expertise.
Can we visit Cannes and Monaco during a one-day rental?
Cannes and the Lerins Islands are easily reachable within a day from Antibes. While Monaco is accessible, it requires a longer transit time, which may limit your swimming and relaxation stops. We recommend focusing on either the Cannes area or the Nice/Villefranche coast to maximize your time in the water.
What happens if the weather is bad on the day of my rental?
Safety is our primary concern. If the harbor master or the captain deems the sea conditions unsafe for travel, we will first attempt to reschedule your trip to another day. If rescheduling is not possible due to your travel dates, we offer a refund or credit according to the specific terms of your charter agreement.
