Prestige 550 FLY

Onboard the Prestige 550 FLY

The Prestige 550 FLY carries its size well: an 18-metre flybridge motor yacht where the upper deck opens into a genuine second living space, shaded seating below on the aft cockpit, and a salon that stays connected to both without feeling closed off. For a boat rated to 12 guests, the layout gives people room to spread out rather than cluster around one table.

Based out of Saint-Tropez, the boat suits a lunch stop on anchor in the Gulf with a tender run in to Quai Jean Jaurès, or a longer day that pushes north to Port Grimaud, where the three cabins come into play for guests staying over in the canal marina rather than heading straight back to port. It handles both a single afternoon and a two-day plan without needing a different boat for each.

It reads best for families with older children, small friend groups, or couples travelling with guests who want their own cabin rather than a shared berth. Day charters make full use of the 12-guest capacity on deck; overnight bookings settle into three cabins, so it's worth confirming which format you're planning before the boat is booked.
