Island Hopping by Navélia: The Ultimate Cannes Yacht Charter Itinerary to the Lérins Islands

Two Islands, One Perfect Day

Just fifteen minutes from Cannes lies a peaceful world of pine forests, vineyards, and clear water. The Lérins Islands — Sainte-Marguerite and Saint-Honorat — offer a contrast to the city’s glamour. From your private yacht, you can see the festival skyline fade behind you as calm horizons take over.

This is the Riviera as few experience it: simple, natural, and quietly luxurious.

A Day Between History and Nature

Your Cannes yacht charter itinerary begins in the Vieux Port or Port Canto, where your crew welcomes you with chilled drinks and a short safety briefing. Once the yacht leaves the harbor, the islands appear across the bay.

Morning at Île Sainte-Marguerite:

• Cruise toward the island’s western shore for swimming and paddleboarding.

• Stroll through pine paths or visit the old fortress, once home to the “Man in the Iron Mask.”

• Enjoy lunch on board prepared by your private chef, anchored in turquoise water.

Afternoon at Île Saint-Honorat:

• Sail five minutes south to the smaller island, known for its monastery and vineyard.

• Taste local wine produced by the resident monks.

• Walk the island’s peaceful trails before returning to your yacht for sunset aperitifs.

Each stop blends culture and leisure, giving you a complete Riviera experience in a single day.
