Yacht overview

Sleek, quick and reassuringly stable, she slips from the Old Port to Pampelonne and the headlands beyond with predictable movement and minimal fuss.

Onboard experience
Life on board is shaped around the water. The broad cockpit is set up for shaded seating and open‑air dining, while wide sunpads at the bow and stern provide uninterrupted lounging during passages. The hull’s steady manners make transitions between anchorages comfortable, even when covering faster stretches. Below, a bright interior offers three cabins, with two principal cabins arranged to preserve privacy during mid‑day rests or post‑swim changes. The swim platform sits reassuringly close to the waterline, streamlining reboarding after snorkelling. Towels and snorkelling equipment are provided; curated catering and fine dining can be arranged in advance, along with premium wines and spirits, so the table setting matches your plans. The result is a CRANCHI 60 charter that feels polished yet simple—exactly right for Saint‑Tropez.
Best destinations & anchorages from Saint-Tropez
Saint‑Tropez rewards short, scenic hops. Within minutes you can be in Baie des Canoubiers (often called Millionaires’ Bay) for a first swim, or round Cap Camarat for the broad sands of Pampelonne. Continue to the turquoise shallows of Cap Taillat and L’Escalet—protected coves that show their best in calm conditions. Les Salins offers a quieter anchorage close to town, while Port Grimaud’s canals provide a charming shore interlude nearby. If you prefer a longer run, the Îles de Lérins off Cannes are achievable on a focused day, rewarding with pine‑framed anchorages and clear water. Cruising times are refreshingly short on this coastline: expect 5–10 minutes to Canoubiers, around 20–30 minutes to Pampelonne, and 30–40 minutes to Taillat, subject to sea state and traffic—precisely the kind of distances the CRANCHI 60 covers with ease.
Beach clubs & shore highlights
Arrive by sea and let the day unfold from anchor. Most Pampelonne beach clubs coordinate their own tender shuttles from just outside the swim lines, subject to conditions and each venue’s policy—your captain will liaise in advance. Classic addresses include Club 55 for Mediterranean staples, Nikki Beach for music‑driven afternoons, and Bagatelle or Loulou Ramatuelle for a leisurely, well‑paced lunch. Prefer something quieter? Verde Beach and Les Salins keep the tempo low. Back in town, a stroll along the Old Port and a table at Sénéquier at golden hour remain timeless. For a broader perspective on a French Riviera yacht charter, this coastline blends casual toes‑in‑the‑sand lunches with polished service and effortless returns to the yacht when you are ready to swim again.
Day charter routes & sample itineraries
With standard hours from 10:00 to 18:00, a day charter Saint‑Tropez on the CRANCHI 60 is both relaxed and efficient. Choose an easy loop focused on swimming, or stretch the day with a longer passage—her steady hull keeps the ride composed.
Sample day plans
A few well‑paced options to consider:

Guest capacity, crew & service
The CRANCHI 60 welcomes up to 11 guests for the day—well within the sweet spot for a sociable outing without feeling crowded. One experienced captain manages navigation, docking and liaison with beach clubs, keeping the day seamless. A hostess can be arranged on request if you prefer assisted service at table or with younger guests; simply ask when booking. The layout naturally separates quiet spaces below from the social cockpit and foredeck, so everyone finds their rhythm—sunbathers forward, readers in the shade, swimmers shuttling from the low platform. This is service designed around how people genuinely use a yacht on the Riviera: unfussy, attentive and always on time.
Watersports & toys
Towels and snorkelling gear are included for spontaneous swims over sandy bottoms at Canoubiers, Pampelonne or Taillat. Additional toys—such as Seabobs, stand‑up paddleboards or an e‑foil—can be arranged in advance, subject to availability and at extra cost; let us know your preferences and we will tailor the day. The yacht’s low platform simplifies starts and reboarding and makes frequent swims part of the rhythm. For guests treating the CRANCHI 60 as a springboard to the water, the combination of clear anchorages and dependable access is exactly what a Saint‑Tropez day demands.
Fuel, APA and what’s included
On the French Riviera, day charters are typically offered excluding fuel; consumption is calculated on distance and speed and settled after the charter. There is no APA for day use—any incidentals (extra moorings, water toys, catering) are simply added to the final invoice. Included on this yacht are the services of a professional captain, towels and snorkelling equipment within the standard 10:00–18:00 schedule. Welcome champagne is not included, but bespoke provisioning—from fine wines and spirits to a full Mediterranean menu—can be arranged on request. Additional mooring fees away from Saint‑Tropez, restaurant tenders, delivery/re‑delivery, and optional crew or toys are extra. For current terms and the latest inclusions, refer to the yacht’s listing.
Why choose this yacht for Saint‑Tropez

Two principal cabins below are set apart for privacy when you want a pause from the sun, and the low swim platform encourages frequent dips.
