PRINCESS V62S yacht charter Saint-Tropez | Sport Edition
· 6 min read
For a swift, stylish escape on the Riviera, a PRINCESS V62S yacht charter Saint-Tropez pairs sport performance with refined comfort. Designed for outdoor living, she turns quick hops to Pampelonne or Cap Taillat into an effortless day on the water.
Yacht overview
Purpose-built for Mediterranean day cruising, the PRINCESS V62S is the sport variant of Princess’s acclaimed V62—sleeker, more open, and completely at ease along the Saint-Tropez coastline. Her profile is low and athletic, with a broad aft sunpad, sociable cockpit and a retractable sunroof that floods the salon with light. Twin 2,400 HP engines deliver decisive acceleration and confident handling, so you move smoothly between bays, lunch reservations, and late-afternoon swims. For a luxury yacht rental Saint-Tropez focused on time outside, the V62S offers generous deck space without compromising interior comfort. Two professional crew manage the day discreetly, keeping service seamless from 10:00 to 18:00, while up to 12 guests enjoy a balanced blend of speed, ease and Riviera glamour—exactly what a day charter Saint-Tropez should feel like.
Yacht specifications
A contemporary sportcruiser with exacting build quality, the V62S combines the right dimensions for local anchorages with the power to stretch to further islands when conditions allow. The layout is optimized for day use, while two cabins offer privacy for wardrobe changes or a quiet pause in air-conditioned comfort.

Onboard experience
Life aboard is designed around the open cockpit. Aft, a wide sunpad welcomes lazy Riviera mornings, while the shaded dining area handles casual lunches and relaxed conversation underway. Slide the retractable sunroof and the main salon becomes a breezy extension of deck life—ideal when you want shade without losing the sea air. Forward, bow seating is arranged for small-group relaxation at anchor. Below, two well-appointed cabins and a lounge provide cool, quiet retreats for changing or a brief siesta. Towels and snorkeling sets are ready for spontaneous swims. The crew curate the rhythm of the day—swift embarkation in Saint-Tropez, unhurried swims in translucent coves, and timely arrivals for shore reservations—keeping the focus on what matters: effortless time on the water.
Best destinations & anchorages from Saint-Tropez
From Port de Saint-Tropez, the V62S reaches the bay’s classics within minutes and the next capes in less than an hour. Settle into the clear waters of Baie de Canebiers for a relaxed first swim, then run along to Pampelonne’s broad anchorage off Cap Camarat. For wilder scenery, continue to Cap Taillat and L’Escalet, where the water turns a luminous turquoise. To the west, Les Issambres and Sainte-Maxime offer quieter stops. Longer runs are well within reach on a calm day: the Îles d’Hyères (Porquerolles and Port-Cros) typically sit around 1.5–2 hours away, while the Îles de Lérins off Cannes are a fast morning sprint followed by lunch at anchor. Each leg is short enough to keep the day unhurried—and long enough to feel like a journey.
Beach clubs & shore highlights
Saint-Tropez is anchored by its legendary beach clubs, and the PRINCESS V62S puts them neatly on your doorstep. Off Pampelonne, favourites such as Club 55, Bagatelle, Nikki Beach, Loulou and Gigi Ramatuelle line the shore, each with its own tempo. Your crew coordinate timings around your table, arranging pick-ups via the venue’s shore tender where available. Prefer something quieter? Baie de Pampelonne also hides low-key alternatives for a barefoot lunch and a swim straight after coffee. Closer to the village, Canebiers offers glassy, sheltered waters for afternoon paddle and snorkel sessions before a golden-hour cruise past the old port. Whether it’s a celebratory lunch or an understated escape, shore time blends seamlessly with life aboard.
Day charter routes & sample itineraries
A classic Saint-Tropez day (10:00–18:00) balances easy cruising and unhurried swims. Sample plan: 10:00 embark in Port de Saint-Tropez, 10:30 first swim in Baie de Canebiers, 11:30 cruise to Pampelonne, 13:00 lunch reservation ashore, 15:30 idle south to Cap Taillat for snorkeling, 17:00 slow return via Cap Camarat with a last dip, 18:00 disembark. Looking farther? On calm seas the V62S comfortably stretches to the Îles d’Hyères for a full-day escape in gin-clear anchorages, or north to the Îles de Lérins for a Cannes lunch. Typical legs range 15–40 minutes locally; extended routes 60–120 minutes depending on conditions and agreed speed. Your captain will refine timings around wind, swell and your plans ashore.
Guest capacity, crew & service
Licensed for up to 12 guests on a day charter, the PRINCESS V62S is right-sized for families, two couples with friends, or a compact corporate outing. Two experienced crew manage navigation, service and safety with practiced discretion, from fast tender rendezvous to quiet anchoring in sheltered bays. Expect chilled towels, attentive table service, and seamless coordination with beach clubs. The cabin level offers a private space for changing and a brief rest; on deck, shaded and sun-exposed areas let everyone find their spot. Whether you are new to a yacht charter Saint-Tropez or a Riviera regular, the onboard team’s local knowledge keeps the day smooth, on time, and precisely as relaxed—or as active—as you wish.
Watersports & toys
The V62S arrives prepared for uncomplicated days in the water. Snorkeling gear is carried on board, with fresh towels for every swim. If you want to add more action, our team can arrange extra toys with advance notice and subject to availability. Popular choices for a French Riviera yacht charter include Seabobs for reef-side exploring, stand-up paddleboards for a quiet glide in Canebiers, and e-foils for those looking to test balance and smile lines.
