It may be the world’s second-smallest country, but when it comes to the French principality’s long-standing yachting scene, Monaco has always been larger than life.

With its prime setting on the Côte d’Azur, home of the iconic Grand Prix, and within easy cruising distance of other famous destinations such as St Tropez, Cannes, Nice, Antibes, and the Italian Riviera, Monaco has been a favourite with the yachting set for decades. There are a wide number of companies offering yacht charters in Monaco, and while many of those offered will be out of reach of the average folk, price wise, there are still some options that won’t break the bank. To help you find your Monaco yacht charter, we’ve picked out three of the best companies around.
Ritzy Charters
Established in 2012, Ritzy Charters is an agency for arranging yacht rental charters across the world – with a strong focus on crewed yachts. The company offers nearly 100 vessels in the South of France and Italian Riviera across several categories, including motorboats, sailing boats, and catamarans, as well as the pinnacle of luxury yacht charters aboard superyachts. The booking process is simple too – all you do is fill in a query form with some necessary details, including number of guests, travel dates, itinerary and special requests, then you ask for a quote and wait for the company to send back a list of available yachts for your dates and criteria.
Click&Boat
With tens of thousands of vessels available for hire worldwide, Click & Boat are a major player in the peer to peer yacht charter sector. Owners can create a free listing for their boat and renters are then invited to contact them directly to discuss further. While bareboat rentals are the most affordable option, some boats also come with captain onboard if you’re willing to pay the extra cost. In Monaco, we found over 100 boat rentals available, with prices starting at $208 per day for a 11.5-metre sailing boat, not including fees (which can be rather high). Many of the boats’ owners also provide water sports equipment for your rental, too.
Boatsters Black
Boatsters Black is synonymous with the Luxury Yacht Charter experience, and is there a better spot to do so than Monaco? The principality of Monaco sits on the glamorous French Riviera, known for its sophistication and style, being one of the most affluent spots in the world, with its sparkling superyachts harbour lined up and competing for attention. With decades of industry experience in the yachting and luxury travel industries, let Boatsters manage the organisation of your holidays from A to Z. Start dreaming with their fleet, their yachts are waiting to take you on the best charter experience ever.
