• Hercules Port

Accueil / The Ports of Monaco / Hercules Port

PRESENTATION

Hercules Port is a natural bay at the foot of the ancestral rock of the princes of Monaco. It is one of the few, if not the only deep-water port of the French Riviera.

It was used as a trading port by the Greeks and Romans but had the disadvantage of being poorly sheltered from the easterly winds. This prompted the erection of two piers in the early twentieth century which went some way to providing better protection, nut not completely as the means used then for deep water were not fully effective (30-40 meters).

Under the impetus of HRH Prince Rainier III, studies were undertaken in the 1970s to better protect the stretch of water by placing, before the two existing piers, a new sea wall and a lee breakwater intended to provide the port with full protection from the swells of the eastern sector.

These studies were to lead to the construction of a colossal structure 352 metres in length and weighing 160,000 tonnes at the foot of the Rock of Gibraltar. The unique design of this avant-garde work is to be semi-floating. The volume of seawater “trapped” between the underside of the structure and the mobilized seabed behaves like a wall baptizes and patented under the name of “fixed water wall”. It is this wall of water that provides the atteation of agitation on either side of the mooring. The floating nature of this structure, anchored on the Rock side by a ball joint and moored on the sea side by eight lines of moorings (5 on the wide side and 3 on the shore side) has made it possible to preserve the marine fauna and flora).

It was towed to the principality in August 2002 and moored at the foot of the rock. It was completed by a lee breakwater 145 metres in length in order to build a marina in front of Quai Louis II, itself created in 2005 andcompleted in 2011, intended to host the Yacht Club in the summer of 2014. The new sea wall also makes it possible to welcome major cruise ships (up to 300 metres in length). Inside the original port, HRH Prince Albert II, who continued the work started by his father, wished to see the stretch of water undergo comprehensive redevelopment to make Hercule Port the most mdern and most practical marina in the western Mediterranean, and on the wider scale to position Monaco as a Capital of Yachting.

This redevelopment enables large and luxurious pleasure craft to enter the Port in response to the deelopment of ocean cruising.

Marinas and moorings in Monaco

Discover the top Monaco moorings

There are only two ports in Monaco: the huge (and hugely glamorous) Port Hercule, and the charming Port Fontvieille. There are also some excellent marinas in French territory within a very short cruise of Monaco, which we’ve also included in this guide.

Moorings & marinas

Port Hercule Monaco’s Port Hercule is one of the greatest superyacht marinas of the world. Used as a deep water port since Roman times, today the port sits nestled under the steep Monegasque cityscape of high-rises, grand hotels, and the cliff-top palace perched on the Rock of Monaco.

The port has 700 berths, of which 30 are visitor docks according to availability. Port Hercules has 110 berths accommodating yachts over 24m, with its largest berth able to accept a yacht up to 130m in length. Marina depths range from 5m to 40m, so all drafts can be accommodated.

Getting a berth in Monaco is rarely cheap or easy-with major events such as the glamorous Grand Prix in May and the Monaco Yacht Show in September making berths there fiercely contested and the berthing rates not for the faint-hearted. To be sure, getting a berth for the Monaco Grand Prix is one of the great yachting experiences on the planet, when the superyachts gather cheek-by-jowl along the edge of the racetrack, the F1 cars tearing past the assembled yachts crowded almost to sinking-point with cheering people.

Port Hercule is lined with restaurants and bars creating a vibrant atmosphere, while the boutiques, casinos, and Michelin-starred restaurants of Monte Carlo are only a short walk away. Also worth a look is the stunning Yacht Club de Monaco , which was designed by British architect Lord Norman Foster in the shape of a boat.

Port de Fontvieille The other port of Monaco, Port de Fontvieille , lies just around the headland and is much smaller than its famous sister, but this marina is also very beautiful and offers better shelter from easterly swells. Fontvieille marina, crowded with restaurants and overlooked by residents apartment buildings, has a real village feel rather than that of a working marina, and in fact, you’ll have to pop back around the corner to Port Hercules if you want yachting necessities such as fuel or a shipyard. Berths in Port de Fontvieille are reserved mainly for residents so visitor availability is limited.

Ports near Monaco

Port Hercule and Fontveille may be the only two ports in the tiny principality of Monaco, but if you sail just around the corner from Monaco into France in either direction you’ll find some excellent smaller marinas stretched along the steep coastline.

Menton The beautiful town of Menton offers two very good marinas right by the Italian border, and you’ll find berthing rates more competitive here than in most other ports along the Riviera. Both ports have restaurants, a lovely setting and a friendly atmosphere. Port de Menton Garavan is the newer and larger of the two marinas, with 770 berths, of which 170 are public. The marina can accommodate yachts up to 40m in length and 3m in draft. Port Municipal de Menton (also called Le Vieux Port), is the public port of Menton offering 596 berths, of which 100 are reserved for visitors. The port accommodates vessels up to 30m, with a maximum draft of 6m.

Cap d’Ail While it’s in French territory, Cap d’Ail Marina, Port de Plaisance de Cap d'Ail , is so close to Monaco that the only road access is actually through Monaco rather than France. This is a charming little deep water port catering for yachts up to 60 m as well as lots of small local boats. It’s a friendly, calm and convivial marina with less bustle and than neighbouring Monaco.

Beaulieu-sur-Mer The pretty town of Beaulieu-sur-Mer is only 5nm from Monaco in the direction of Nice , and has two marinas, the large and vibrant Port de Beaulieu and the small and picturesque Port de Fourmis . Port de Beaulieu caters for 750 vessels up to 25m in length and with a maximum draft of 5m. It has excellent facilities and a brilliant selection of restaurants and yachting businesses right in the port, creating a wonderful atmosphere for locals and visitors alike. Port de Fourmis is a small and very pretty marina sitting under some magnificent villas. Port des Fourmis has 260 berths for small vessels with a maximum length of 12m and a maximum draft of 1.5m.

Cap Ferrat Port Saint Jean Cap Ferrat has 581 moorings for yachts up to 30m in length and a maximum draft of 4m. While there are 205 public berths in this number, it can be difficult to get a berth in the busy summer months. Cap Ferrat is a very prestigious harbour in the shadow of some grandiose villas and has a charming pedestrianised area with upmarket shops and restaurants nearby.

Villefranche La Darse Marina : The spectacularly pretty deepwater bay at Villefranche has a small capacity marina which can accept yachts up to 34 m. There are 540 moorings with a maximum draught of 4m, and 5 superyacht berths. While it is generally difficult to find a berth in La Darse Marina in the summertime as the berths are privately owned, the bay also offers wonderful anchorage that is very sheltered in most conditions (with the exception of a strong southerly).

Summary There are plenty of boat berths in Monaco and in marinas along the coastline nearby, making this area an ideal place to stop and explore this gorgeous part of the French Riviera. With a glamorous address, stunning scenery and plenty of yachting facilities and infrastructure, Monaco is a wonderful destination on your yachting holiday. Just remember to book early!

The largest yacht in Monaco's harbour

MONACO -- If the wide shots of the Monaco Grand Prix look a little less spectacular this year, it's probably because the circuit's famous harbour is operating at little over half capacity.

Port Hercule, which is skirted by Monaco's famous race track on two sides, usually acts as a magnet for the Mediterranean's superyachts at this time of year, turning 160,000 square metres of liquid real estate into the ultimate playground for the rich and famous.

On a race weekend, a berth in Port Hercule can cost anywhere between €8,000 and €128,000 depending on location and size of boat, with the most expensive positions offering a view of the track from the Nouvelle Chicane to the Swimming Pool complex.

The very biggest boats have no choice but to moor on "The T" behind the Swimming Pool grandstand, with their bows pointing out to sea.

But the COVID-19 pandemic has curbed the party in 2021, with loud music banned after 10 p.m. and no more than 12 guests on a yacht at any time.

The largest yacht in the harbour this year is "Faith", a 316-foot leviathan worth an estimated $200,000,000.

In 2019 it was anchored further down the coastline, acting as the base for Aston Martin team owner Lawrence Stroll and his racing driver son, Lance.

Recent media reports suggest Faith has been sold to Michael Latifi, the billionaire chairman and CEO of Sofina Foods and father of Williams racing driver Nicholas.

Details of Faith can be found online , including its seasonal charter rates, which start at an eye-watering €1,200,000 per week and rise to €1,500,000.

That money not only buys you a lot of yacht for seven days, but also a list of amenities that would make several of Monaco's five-star hotels look rather ill-equipped.

The five-storey floating palace houses a cinema, spa, swimming pool, massage room, steam room, hammam, gym and, rumour has it, a snow room.

It has seven bedrooms that can sleep up to 12 guests, a VIP stateroom to entertain friends and includes an elevator to conveniently link its decks.

Faith also comes laden with toys, including two jet skis, an electric foiling surfboard, three sea bobs and two kayaks.

A helipad and helicopter hangar are built into the floating superstructure, although it seems as though you have to provide your own helicopter.

One charter website carrying details of Faith, claims its "impressive leisure and entertainment facilities make her the ideal charter yacht for socialising and entertaining with family and friends".

The yacht-spotter's guide to the F1 Monaco Grand Prix

Every year, Monaco’s Grand Prix pulls in some of the fleet’s finest superyachts for a weekend of adrenaline-fuelled F1 action and A-lister events in the heart of the principality. Yachts moored stern to the circuit have a premium vantage point over the cars tearing around the track, while superyachts at anchor can enjoy all the Formula One buzz with the added benefit of privacy and seclusion. 

BOAT takes a closer look at the superyachts spotted near the event...

Renaissance

Length : 111.9m Builder : Freire

Renaissance is the largest private yacht built in Spain and one of the world's most expensive charter yachts . Which is quite the feat for Freire, a commercial shipyard that has built only one private yacht in the past. With 7,200GT to play with, her list of amenities include a sushi bar, a dedicated hair and beauty salon, a ballet bar with a mirror for stretching and two cinemas – one indoor, one outdoor. The owner's deck is described as "palatial" and comes with its own a media room, a lounge with bar and dining and a private terrace with a Jacuzzi for six.

Length : 52.1m Builder : Sanlorenzo

Spotted pulling into port with a Bugatti on the aft, Seven Sins is the perfect yacht for soaking up the Formula One action. She is part of Sanlorenzo's hugely successful 52Steel series, with features including a glass-bottomed pool on the aft that floods the beach club below with light. Her palatial interior design offers plenty of space for kicking back and watching the races in a more relaxed setting and her sharp Officina Italiana Design exterior is sure to attract attention in Monaco harbour. 

Length : 90m Builder : Benetti

Lionheart was launched in 2016 as the shipyard's largest build to date, though she was surpassed by the 107-metre Mar (ex Lana ) four years later. She was the third yacht to be ordered from Benetti by the same owner, Sir Philip Green. While her curvy exterior and private balconies will be visible to those visiting Port Hercule this weekend, interiors have always been shrouded in secrecy. It is known that  Stefano Natucci  collaborated with Benetti on the exterior design and Green & Mingarelli Design  is responsible for the interior design.

Fountainhead

Length : 87.8m   Builder : Feadship

Created with family use in mind, Fountainhead features a recreation room and library that can be converted into cabins to supplement the six existing guest cabins and owner's suite. She was designed by De Voogt Naval Architects and Sinot Yacht Design , though "a signature blend of art, antiques and aesthetics" by Belgian artist Axel Vervoordt are also displayed throughout.  Leisure highlights include a fully-equipped gym with health club, a contra-flow swimming pool and a tender garage that houses wave runners, kayaks, surfboard and diving equipment, among others. The superyacht is named after the famous novel by Ayn Rand.

Coral Ocean

Length : 72.6m Builder : Lürssen

A World Superyacht Award winner, Coral Ocean earned the judges' commendation following a sensitive, multi-million refit that converted the heritage vessel into a successful charter platform. All deck spaces were upgraded, including a reimagined sundeck that now houses a glass-sided spa pool, sunbathing and observation deck and a central deckhouse with a television lounge, dining area and bar. Coral Ocean was one of the largest launches of 1994 and her secrecy for the first two decades of her life solidified her as an icon for the German shipyard. She is owned by Australian garbage waste disposal giant Ian Malouf. 

Length : 72m   Builder : Lürssen

Delivered in 2006, Titania  (ex Apoise ) was put up for auction by her owner in 2010 and was snapped up for €33.75 million – roughly half the estimated value – by Phones4U tycoon John Caudwell. He then went on to refit, lengthen and rename the superyacht, which he discusses in an exclusive interview with BOAT International . Designed by Espen Øino and Francois Zuretti , the Lürssen was the star yacht in season six of The Crown and is a popular charter yacht. No wonder, as she sports a beach club that can be converted into a nightclub, an onboard masseuse and beautician and an impressive array of watersports – including a waterpark and a 12.7-metre slide.

Length : 70m Builder : Royal Denship

Force Blue first hit the water in 2002 as the 63.3-metre Big Roi , a trawler-style expedition yacht that has since been refitted to varying degrees. The most recent work was done at Lusben in 2022 and involved a seven-metre stern extension to allow for a large, wrap-around swim platform. The main deck was extended in the process as well. Design highlights include a black-tiled spa (with heated massage table), a cinema, a barbecue and dining area that turns into a disco and a dining room that doubles as a conference space. An elevator serves all decks.

Length : 67.5m Builder : Icon Yachts

The flagship of the Dutch shipyard, Loon (ex Icon ) is now anchored in Port Hercule where she is likely to cause another social media sensation . She was delivered in 2010 to a design by RWD , with clean, contemporary interiors by Studio Linse . A raised main deck pool is one of her many highlights with two panels of glass that filter natural light into the beach club below. A bar, gym, massage room and sauna are also found at this level. Loon was sold to a new owner in April 2023, after which she joined the charter fleet with IYC .

Length : 66m   Builder : Oceanco

AHS has undergone numerous name changes (she was sold and renamed mostly recently in January ) but started life as Dilbar in 2005. A successful charter yacht, she can be easily distinguished in port by her classic canoe stern. An interior by the late Alberto Pinto provides accommodation across eight cabins, including a full-beam owner's suite with its own lounge and adjoining private office. Other highlights include an outdoor cinema, a beamy sundeck with 19,000-litre pool and a helipad that transforms into a sun lounge.

Length : 49.9m Builder : Zepter

The Croatian yard's first superyacht offering, JoyMe is usually berthed in Cap d’Ail but has been sighted in Monaco for the past two Grands Prix. She’s one of the most recognisable yachts at the event, with her custom red and white exterior and unusual eye motif – said to be the eyes of the commissioning owner’s daughter. Leisure highlights include a Pop Art-inspired interior by  Marijana Radovic , a sundeck with a 3.5-metre Jacuzzi and a lower deck arranged with a gym, Finnish sauna and Hammam spa with sea views. Accommodation is across five cabins, including the "VIP deck" owner's cabin which has a walk-in bathroom, lounge and private sunbathing platform on the bow.

Length : 45.2m Builder : Royal Hakvoort

The most recent delivery on the list, Milele is one of this year's World Superyacht Award winners . According to the judges, she stood out thanks to her "incredible build quality” and surprising spaces on board. Most notable of these is the innovative foredeck garage, which stores a submarine and crane, and has a full entertainment suite with a large television screen built into its hatch. She was designed inside and out by Omega Architects with an efficient hull design by Van Oossanen Naval Architects .

• Share via Email

By Katie Scott   20 September 2023

Preparing for the latest edition of the iconic Monaco Yacht Show , some of the most impressive luxury yacht charters on the market are set to descend upon the French principality and make a statement for being one of the largest yachts in attendance.

Annually hosting around 600 exhibitors, Port Hercule comes to life as one of the biggest yachting events in the South of France brings the community together to celebrate some of the most magnificent motor yachts on the current market. Operating on a badge system, visitors to the show enjoy a tailor-made experience that is paired off nicely with the indulgent Sapphire VIP program.

However, like any yacht show, the main attraction is the yachts themselves, and this year there are some staggering charter yachts on display at the esteemed show. Ranging in the 90m+ sector, Lurssen, Feadship and Golden Yachts offer some real showstoppers that offer abundant inspiration for your next France yacht charter .

CARINTHIA VII

Indulging in a refit this year, Lurssen's luxury superyacht CARINTHIA VII is an impressive sight to behold with plenty of standout features and captivating designs from British designer Tim Heywood Design.

Offering an abundance of space and a multitude of key highlights such as a beauty salon, spa, elevator, underwater lights, beach club, and gym, there are a lot of reasons why this striking motor yacht would be an ideal partner for an incredible Mediterranean yacht charter .

Boasting an eight-cabin layout, this 97m (318ft) luxury charter yacht is the biggest charter attending the Monaco Yacht Show at the docks, so she is one not to be missed.

Measuring up at 90m (295ft), luxury charter yacht P HOENIX 2  from Lurssen is a striking superyacht with collaborative input on the interiors from Andrew Winch Designs.

A hub for entertainment, PHOENIX 2 features a magical main salon complete with a chandelier and a grand piano, plus an indulgent cinema room, in addition to other key features like a 7.5m sun deck swimming pool, a beautiful winter garden dining area, and top-of-the-range spa facilities.

With a seven-cabin layout, PHOENIX 2 is spacious and opulent, providing all charter guests with an outstanding onboard experience. 

Feadship's charter favorite SAVANNAH ranks as the fourth largest luxury yacht charter attending Monaco this year and offers an indulgent six-cabin layout for up to 12 charter guests.

With a length of 84m (275ft), this luxury charter made her name as the world's first hybrid superyacht with an array of impressive features including an underwater lounge and multiple swimming pools.

An outstanding pedigree yacht that delivers on all fronts, SAVANNAH is a high-demand superyacht and definitely worth a close up inspection at the forthcoming yacht show.

Offering 78m (255.9ft) of indulgent superyacht, luxury charter O'REA from Golden Yachts  is a brand new 2023 build with exquisite indoor/outdoor living and an elaborate layout of eight cabins and many premium facilities. 

With an elevator connecting all decks, charter guests can make the most of the voluminous spaces onboard with an inviting pool and a well-appointed wellness zone, including beach club and sauna, setting the stage for a relaxing charter vacation around Mediterranean favorites like Ibiza .

Topped off with an on-deck Jacuzzi and Wi-Fi connectivity charter guests can be assured of amazing trips time after time.

New in 2022, the striking blue hull of charter yacht KENSHO will also be making a splash at this year's Monaco Yacht Show. Built by Admiral Yachts and with a length of 75m (246ft), KENSHO is just as enticing on the inside as she is from the outside with a host of features prepared to deliver exceptional charter voyages around the world.

Offering outstanding highlights such as a vast beach club featuring a stunning glass-sided swimming pool and a spacious eight-cabin layout for up to 12 charter guests, there's a lot to see and do onboard KENSHO, and that's before you see her impressive collection of water toys.

In addition to the five biggest charter yachts in the show, charter yacht AHPO will be at anchor out in the Monaco bay and availlable for select viewings via tender. Boasting a striking length of 115m (377.7ft), she is a force to be reckoned with and is fully equipped to provide the most captivating luxury yacht charter vacations.

Hosting an expansive beach club, a plethora of wellness facilities, a top-of-the-range gym, helideck, and an outstanding owner's duplex among other key highlights, there are a lot of reasons to choose AHPO as the ideal charter yacht year after year.

Previously breaking records as the largest yacht to attend the Monaco Yacht Show in a decade, this incredible motor yacht is one not to be missed.

The 11 Most Exciting Superyacht Debuts at the Monaco Yacht Show

This year's newbies range from a 400-footer that charters for $3.25 million per week to multiple hybrid yachts, including one that runs on methanol., julia zaltzman, julia zaltzman's most recent stories.

The Monaco Yacht Show always promises a stellar lineup— last year had an unusually large number of wild launches—and this time around will be no exception. More than 120 superyachts, including 20-plus that measure 200 feet and above, will be on the docks at Port Hercule, with beautiful Monte Carlo in the hills above.

Among the fleet of anticipated launches is the 400-foot Kismet . Built by Lürssen and launched earlier this year, this stunner will be shown before the winter charter season, at a weekly rate of $3.25 million. The vessel is sure to stand out, thanks to the large silver jaguar sculpture fitted under its bowsprit.

Besides bling, showgoers will notice the concerted push toward sustainability this year. Rossinavi has introduced the Seawolf X , its first hybrid-electric catamaran, and Nautor Swan’s sailing maxi yacht, DreamCatcher , is also its first hybrid. Sanlorenzo is launching Almax , its first 50-meter (165-foot) vessel with hydrogen fuel cells. It was developed with Siemens Energy.

Siemens is also sponsoring the show’s Sustainability Hub, which has become a breeding ground for eco-friendly concepts and new ideas to promote a greener superyacht sector. This year’s conference will cover alternative propulsion, outlining how it will be adopted over the next five years. The show’s Yacht Design & Innovation Hub takes a less technical approach to sustainability. It’s the place where leading designers and mainstream innovators converge, presenting vessels that will shape the future of superyacht design.

Here are 11 must-see boats at this year’s show.

Lürssen ‘Kismet’

The 400-foot Kismet is the most anticipated boat on display at Monaco this year. True to form, Shahid Khan’s third Lürssen, which charters for $3.25 million per week, will be an exceptional landmark in a marina of superyachts. Alongside its Nemo lounge for viewing marine life, a Balinese-inspired spa with the first chromotherapy bathtub on a yacht, and upper-deck dining options for 24 people, the vessel has a duplex owner’s apartment with two separate marbled bathrooms, a fireplace, and gilded wall coverings. When guests have had their fill of the DJ station and Bogányi piano, the ’80s retro matrix dance floor should keep the party going.

Royal Huisman ‘Special One’

Set to make a splash is Royal Huisman’s 171-foot Special One , the largest sportfisherman in the world. Commissioned by an experienced yachtsman and passionate fisherman, the monster sportfish is kitted out with a fighting chair, 22 fishing rods, insulated cooler boxes, and a dedicated bait-and-tackle room. The teak foredeck can transition into a sheltered private lounge area and also converts to an outdoor cinema. Designed by Vripack, the vessel offers up proportions and seakeeping capabilities that are matched by its impressive 30-knot top speed.

Rossinavi ‘Seawolf X’

Looming large above the water, the 140-foot Seawolf X is Rossinavi’s most ambitious build to date. The hybrid-electric catamaran is the Italian shipyard’s first multihull, which can stay in electric mode during transatlantic trips for 80 percent of the time. Even more impressive is the onboard artificial intelligence system—Rossinavi AI—which analyses the operation of the vessel, predicts the needs of guests and optimizes crew service and logistics. The interior is designed by New York-based Meyer Davis, with an exterior penned by Fulvio De Simoni Yacht Design. Its wow features include a cockpit centered around a pool, a second hidden pool on the bow area, and an outdoor cinema.

Bilgin ‘Eternal Spark’

Eternal Spark is the first hull in Bilgin’s 163 series. In addition to six outdoor and three indoor lounge areas, the yacht can host over 100 people while at anchor from its five dedicated bar areas. Hot Lab’s use of wood inlays and embossed natural leather create a refined interior aesthetic, while the combination of a huge beach club, sauna, pool, and two cinemas—outdoor and indoor—should keep guests happy. Built with over 200 different materials, it shows how advanced the Turkish yard has become with its last few launches.  

Sanlorenzo ‘Almax’

Sanlorenzo’s first fuel-cell-powered 50Steel model joins a growing list of yacht launches exploring alternative power sources. The fuel-cell technology converts biomethanol (green methanol) into enough electricity to cover the hotel load so the yacht can anchor all night without generators. Almax also has Sanlorenzo’s newly patented Hidden Engine Room (HER), located on the lower deck. This novel configuration creates enough interior volume to include a 1,615-square-foot beach club with a pool and unfolding sea terraces, while keeping the yacht below 500GT. The shipyard has confirmed the sale of four units to date.

Custom Line50

Making its global debut a Monaco, the four-decked Custom Line50 is the Italian shipyard’s new flagship model. The dedicated owner’s apartment on the upper deck includes full-height windows, a full-beam suite, and a large private terrace. The sun deck’s lounge seating, cocktail bar, uninterrupted views, and glass-edged infinity pool amplify the sense of being on a floating island. It’s an effective design that is replicated on the main aft deck. This area offers stepped access to the sea, a scenario that is reinforced by an aquamarine-and-cream interior color scheme.

Damen ‘Five Oceans’

The newest model from Damen’s Yacht Support 53 range, Five Oceans was built for Tommy Allen, an entrepreneur committed to ocean exploration and marine conservation. The vessel will be easy to spot in Monaco’s Port Hercules, thanks to its powder-blue, orange, and white hull. The custom build is Allen’s second yacht-support vessel from Damen. It has a sprawling aft deck to carry toys and tenders as well as a 15-ton deck crane for the launch and recovery of the electric boats and Triton 3300 Pro submersible. Five Oceans also carries an Icon A5 amphibious aircraft.

Tankoa ‘Diamond Binta’

Conceived as a world explorer, Tankoa’s 190-foot Diamond Binta blends a hybrid propulsion package with high-gloss finishes over a wooden interior. Penned by Francesco Paszkowski, Tankoa’s long-time design collaborator, the full custom build has an owner’s suite with a fold-out balcony, a forward helideck for shore-based excursions, a large beach club with a spa, and massage room as well as a sundeck with a gym and pool. A corridor on the lower deck connects the yacht’s five guest cabins to the beach area, passing through a viewable engine room.

Nautor Swan ‘DreamCatcher’

As Nautor Swan’s first hybrid yacht, the 88-foot DreamCatcher is described by the shipyard as a “no-compromise cruiser with a racer’s soul.” Designed for guest comfort with a maximum heeling angle of 20 degrees, its exterior is penned by veteran Swan designer Germán Frers, while the light-wood interior with gray accents is done by Misa Poggi. The aft cockpit has a new coachroof design with an integrated sprayhood, bimini, and modular benches that can be used for both lounging and dining. The stern area incorporates a large beach club area and tender garage. On the foredeck is the “sunset lounge.”

Oceanco ‘H3’

Built in 2000 as 312-foot Al Mirqab for a member of the Qatari royal family, the renovated H3 emerged from Oceanco’s facilities in 2023 looking brand new, with an extra 476 gross tons of internal volume. The vessel’s 33-foot extension—to accommodate the owner’s request for an infinity pool with a convertible dance floor and waterfall—and a fully replaced superstructure were enough for Lloyd’s Register to classify the yacht as a new build. A spa on the lower deck has a hammam, a sensory shower, a hair salon, and treatment rooms. The beach club with its rippled mirror ceiling offers stepped access to the sea.

Conrad ‘Extra Time’

Extra Time , the second hull in Conrad’s C144 series, has an exterior by Reymond Langton Design and naval architecture by Diana Yacht Design. The interior is by M2 Atelier. Much like its sistership Ace , Extra Time has a beach club, four guest lounge areas, a cinema, two bars and an infinity pool. Standout personal touches include an attention-grabbing King Kong  sculpture in the main salon and the main-deck owner’s suite that’s accessed via a private study with an electric piano.
