DOKINHA yacht charter French Riviera | 49.9m Mangusta
· 6 min read
For those seeking a contemporary superyacht tailored to the Côte d’Azur, DOKINHA yacht charter French Riviera delivers effortless style and substance along the coast’s marquee ports and bays.
Yacht overview
Built in 2024 by Overmarine, DOKINHA is a 49.9m Mangusta conceived for Mediterranean days that stretch from quiet anchorages to glittering harbors. Alberto Mancini’s sleek lines frame vast panes of glass, flooding the interior with light and Riviera views. The full-beam master suite is a private haven with a folding balcony, electric fireplace, and dual bathrooms, while a separate staircase leads to a generous full-beam VIP. Four further guest cabins complete accommodation for twelve. Outdoors, a dramatic foredeck infinity pool sets the tone, paired with a sun deck jacuzzi and multiple shaded dining zones. A three-sided beach club opens at water level for easy access to the sea. Perfectly judged for a French Riviera yacht charter, DOKINHA balances privacy, open-air living, and confident performance for smooth coastal passages between Saint‑Tropez, Cannes, Cap Ferrat, Nice and Monaco.
Yacht specifications
DOKINHA blends superyacht scale with thoughtful detailing for extended Riviera cruising. Her near‑50‑meter footprint allows expansive deck areas without compromising privacy below decks. The profile is unmistakably Mangusta—sleek, low, and purposeful—yet the onboard volumes feel calm and residential thanks to full-height glazing and a contemporary palette. Zero‑speed stabilisers ensure comfort at anchor off Pampelonne or the Îles de Lérins, and her crew of eleven keep operations seamless underway and in port. Built in 2024, the yacht presents as-new throughout, from tech-forward bridge systems to refined soft furnishings and al fresco dining layouts tuned to the Mediterranean climate.

Onboard experience
Floor‑to‑ceiling windows illuminate a soothing, modern interior—think clean lines, soft neutrals, and tactile finishes that feel quietly luxurious rather than loud. The main salon’s lounge flows to a shaded aft deck for relaxed breakfasts as the coastline drifts by. Forward, the master suite’s private balcony becomes an intimate lookout at anchor, framed by the glow of an electric fireplace on cooler evenings. Up top, the sun deck is arranged for Riviera days: jacuzzi forward, bar and grill amidships, and flexible sunpads transitioning to dining under a hardtop. DOKINHA’s signature foredeck infinity pool offers cinematic views on slow coastal passages, while the three‑sided beach club sets the stage for seamless water access and late‑day aperitifs at sea level. Lighting, sound, and climate are all tuned for comfort, making the yacht equally compelling for family weeks or event‑week charters.
Best destinations & anchorages from the French Riviera
From Saint‑Tropez to Monaco, DOKINHA moves comfortably between marquee bays and secluded coves. Off Ramatuelle, Pampelonne’s broad sand offers dependable holding and a short tender hop to its beach clubs. South of there, Cap Taillat and l’Escalet serve as clear‑water day stops with striking headland scenery. Near Cannes, the Îles de Lérins provide sheltered moorings between Sainte‑Marguerite and Saint‑Honorat; swim over seagrass meadows then tender ashore for a quiet walk among pines. Around Cap d’Antibes, La Garoupe is a classic lunch‑at‑anchor setting with turquoise shallows on calm days. Eastward, Villefranche‑sur‑Mer’s deep, amphitheater‑like bay offers dramatic anchoring under citrus‑colored facades, while Saint‑Jean‑Cap‑Ferrat’s Paloma Bay rewards early starts for glassy swims. Monaco remains a perennial draw for evenings in port—berths are assignable on request, with tender runs to nearby coves when privacy calls.
Beach clubs & shore highlights
A DOKINHA charter naturally pairs sea days with well‑chosen shoreside tables. In Ramatuelle, Club 55 and Nikki Beach remain Pampelonne stalwarts; Loulou Ramatuelle brings Riviera‑Italian flair and discreet service. Around Cap Taillat, the vibe shifts to barefoot coves and paddleboard sorties. In Cannes, La Guérite on Sainte‑Marguerite is a lively lunch by the rocks, while a run to Hôtel du Cap‑Eden‑Roc’s pontoon (by prior arrangement) frames a timeless Riviera afternoon. Further east, Paloma Beach on Cap Ferrat keeps things classic beneath pines, and Èze‑sur‑Mer’s Anjuna balances laid‑back days with DJ‑led sunsets. Monaco needs no introduction: reserve Monte‑Carlo Beach for waterside lounging, then step ashore for an evening at the Casino or the Yacht Club. Your captain and concierge coordinate tenders, tables, and timings to keep every transition seamless.
Sample multi‑day itineraries
Most guests start in Saint‑Tropez or Cannes and cruise east with the sun. Distances are short, so days can be unhurried and scenic. Timings are approximate and weather‑dependent.
A refined five‑night loop
A relaxed circuit that captures the coast’s character without rushing.
- Day 1: Saint‑Tropez – Lunch at Pampelonne; sunset at Cap Taillat; overnight at anchor (20–40 minutes under way).
- Day 2: Cruise to Cannes via the Estérel coves; afternoon swim at Îles de Lérins; overnight in Cannes (2–3 hours total).
- Day 3: Cannes to Antibes and Cap d’Antibes; tender to La Garoupe; overnight in Port Vauban (1–1.5 hours).
- Day 4: Antibes to Saint‑Jean‑Cap‑Ferrat; swim Paloma Bay; dinner in Villefranche; anchor overnight (1 hour).

Guest capacity, crew & service
DOKINHA welcomes up to twelve guests in six cabins, thoughtfully spaced for privacy on longer cruises. The full‑beam master suite with balcony and dual bathrooms is set apart from guest areas, while a private staircase leads to a generous full‑beam VIP—ideal for a second couple or principal guests. Four additional cabins complete a versatile, family‑friendly layout. A seasoned crew of eleven delivers discreet, anticipatory service: sunrise coffee on the aft deck, a tender at the ready for a last‑minute shore table, and calm, confident ship‑handling when ports are busy. Zero‑speed stabilisers heighten comfort at anchor, and shaded deck dining allows meals to stretch without heat or glare. Whether for a corporate weekend or a longer French Riviera yacht charter, the onboard rhythm feels composed and unforced.
Watersports & toys
DOKINHA’s three‑sided beach club becomes mission control for the day, with easy boarding and a natural flow between loungers and the water. A towed tender handles swift shore runs to Pampelonne, La Guérite, or Paloma, while the toy garage brings momentum when the bay turns glassy: SeaBobs for silent reef‑skimming, waverunners for open‑water sprints, and paddleboards for quieter laps along the headlands. Crew set up and supervise every activity, with safety briefings tailored to your group and conditions. For guests who prefer the stillness, shaded sofas, the foredeck infinity pool, and the sun deck jacuzzi keep the day equally engaging without leaving the yacht. Stabilisers at anchor mean the platform remains level for swimmers and sunbathers alike.
Fuel, APA and what’s included
For weekly charters under standard Mediterranean terms, the charter fee covers the yacht and crew. Running expenses—fuel, food and beverages, berths, local taxes/VAT, and incidentals—are paid from an Advance Provisioning Allowance (typically 30–40% of the charter fee), fully accounted by the captain. Gratuities are discretionary. On the French Riviera, fuel is excluded on day charters, and welcome champagne is not included; your preferences are provisioned to order. Marina berths are reserved on request and charged at cost. French VAT applies according to itinerary and current regulations; we will advise the prevailing rate. If you are comparing a day charter French Riviera to a week on board, note that port logistics, minimum durations, and security requirements can differ for a 50‑meter superyacht—our team will outline the options clearly.
