When you say ‘Mediterranean’, you immediately think of the Mediterranean climate, known for its pleasant temperatures almost year-round.

The western Mediterranean has a relatively long peak season, opening in May with the Cannes Film Festival and ending in October with Voiles de St Tropez. A yacht charter in the western Mediterranean is also popular amongst charterers in wintertime, as it offers all the beauty of the West Med but at a slower pace and without the crowds. 

Just the thought of the western Mediterranean immediately brings images of crystal blue waters, marina’s filled with elegant superyachts and endless strutting over the promenades to mind. The French Riviera flair, for instance, is widely known for being the perfect mix between sophisticated and effortless, a vibe that pretty much sums up the entire region.
