What Gets Checked Before You Book
Capacity Checked Against the Boat
Guest numbers for a lunch cruise and sleeping capacity for an overnight are two different figures. Before confirming a multi-day route, such as a canal night in Port Grimaud followed by a passage west, we check bunk count against the group size rather than the deck capacity a boat shows for a single afternoon.
Provisioning Ordered Ahead of Departure
Market produce from Place des Lices, available Tuesday and Saturday, and specialist orders placed through Quai Jean Jaurès suppliers are arranged before you board. For multi-day charters this means the galley is stocked to the itinerary rather than to a generic list, with timing coordinated around the market days.
APA and Fuel Briefed to the Actual Route
The advance provisioning allowance (APA) and fuel estimate quoted reflect the plan booked, not a flat day-rate assumption. A day anchored in the Gulf runs on comparatively little fuel; an island leg toward the Îles d'Hyères adds roughly 60 to 80 kilometres, and that difference is stated before departure, not settled afterward.
Beach Club Landings Confirmed Before Sailing
A tender stop at a Pampelonne club such as Club 55 or Nikki Beach depends on a table reservation being in place; the landing itself is what confirms it. We check that the reservation is arranged ahead of the charter so the stop isn't left uncertain once the tender is already in the water.
Saint-Tropez / France
Matching Route, Boat and Timing
The Gulf anchor field off town sits in 5 to 12 metres and suits most motor yachts on a straightforward day out, with the tender running guests to Quai Jean Jaurès. Further south, Cap Taillat and Baie de Briande reward a sailing yacht or a fast day boat that can hold a tighter draft close to the rocks, while an offshore stop at Pampelonne is really a large-motor-yacht exercise, built around tender runs to a beach club rather than swimming off the swim platform. We size the vessel to the route rather than the other way round, so a catamaran booked for a quiet half-day in Briande isn't quietly swapped for a superyacht itinerary it was never built to run.
Multi-day plans usually mean an overnight in the Port Grimaud canal before a passage west, and that changes what the boat needs to offer beyond deck space. Sleeping cabins, not just guest numbers for a lunch cruise, get checked against the vessel at booking stage, since a boat that comfortably hosts twelve for an afternoon on the Gulf may sleep far fewer once bunks, not sun loungers, are the constraint. Departure point matters too — Nouveau Port berths are allocated well ahead of July and August, so vessels based there for a multi-day route are confirmed early, while a start from Sainte-Maxime or Port Grimaud itself can simplify the canal overnight considerably.
Season shapes both the route and the numbers on paper. In July and August the Gulf anchor field fills early, which pushes some charters toward Cap Taillat or an island passage instead of jostling for a mooring spot; June, September and October open up Baie de Briande and calmer runs toward the Îles d'Hyères without the same congestion. Fuel is the other variable worth stating plainly: a day spent anchored in the Gulf burns comparatively little, but an island leg toward Hyères adds roughly 60 to 80 kilometres to the run, and we brief the advance provision allowance (APA) and fuel estimate against the actual route booked, not a generic day-rate figure.
Q & A
Frequently Asked Questions
A quick read of what most charter clients ask before booking.
-
What's the difference between guest capacity and sleeping capacity on a yacht charter?
Guest capacity is the number a boat can carry for a day trip; sleeping capacity is the number of berths available for an overnight. A boat that comfortably hosts twelve for lunch on the Gulf may sleep far fewer once bunks become the limit, so for any multi-day plan, such as a night in the Port Grimaud canal, we check cabin count against your group before confirming the vessel.
-
How does the day-rate, APA and fuel model actually work?
The day-rate covers the yacht and crew; APA (advance provisioning allowance, the fund set aside upfront for fuel, food and dockage) and fuel are billed against what the route actually uses. A day anchored in the Gulf burns comparatively little fuel, while a passage toward the Îles d'Hyères adds roughly 60 to 80 kilometres, so we brief the APA and fuel estimate against your specific itinerary rather than a flat figure.
-
Is it practical to bring children on board, and what should we ask about?
Yes, many families charter successfully, and route choice matters more than the boat itself. Sheltered, shallow options like Baie de Briande or a picnic anchorage near Cap Taillat suit older children well; ask your broker about the specific vessel's layout and the crew's experience with younger guests before booking.
-
Can we book a multi-day route, and does it cross into other waters or require customs clearance?
Multi-day routes based from Saint-Tropez, such as an overnight in the Port Grimaud canal followed by a passage to the Îles d'Hyères, typically stay within French coastal waters. If you're considering extending a route further along the coast or across a border, confirm the customs and clearance requirements with your broker before the itinerary is finalised.
-
Can we charter a yacht for a corporate event or client lunch?
Yes, this is a common use case, often a 40 to 60 ft motor yacht anchored in the Gulf with a view of the town for a client lunch. Catering is arranged through the same provisioning process as any charter, sourced from Place des Lices market or specialist Quai Jean Jaurès suppliers, so confirm your catering brief with the broker when the booking is made.
-
Can we adjust the route with the captain once we're on board?
Some flexibility is normal, but the core plan is set in advance. We build the primary itinerary and stops, such as a Gulf anchorage or a Cap Taillat detour, ahead of departure, and the captain can adapt for weather or sea conditions on the day; larger changes to the route should go through your broker beforehand.
-
How far ahead should we book, particularly for July and August?
Earlier is better in high season, since Nouveau Port quay berths are allocated months in advance and the Gulf anchor field fills early on peak summer mornings. Outside July and August, in June, September or October, timing is more flexible; for last-minute requests, check current fleet availability directly with a broker rather than assuming a fixed booking window.
