Every question, answered straight.

€3,200 for the full day and €1,900 for a half day — always for the whole boat, up to ten guests, never per person, with a complimentary welcome rosé on ice as you board. Hours and single one-way transits are quoted on application. Fuel is charged separately, as everywhere on this coast. The prices page explains every number in the open.

Wherever suits you. Queen of Hearts berths at the Port de Beaulieu-sur-Mer, between Nice and Monaco — five minutes on foot from Beaulieu station, thirty by car from Nice airport. It is one of the best-placed harbours on the Riviera: Cap Ferrat is opposite the harbour mouth and Monaco ten minutes east.

That is where she sleeps rather than where you have to be, though. If you are staying in Monaco, Nice or Cannes, we bring her to you and the day begins there instead.

Up to ten guests plus crew. The rate does not change with the guest count — two of you or ten, the boat is yours.

Unlikely on a normal day. The boat is a deep-V RIB — the hull shape that rescue services use precisely because it rides rough water softly — and at anchor the tubes make her exceptionally stable. If anyone aboard is prone, tell the captain: the sheltered water between Beaulieu and Villefranche is nearly always flat, and the day can live there beautifully.

If the captain cancels for sea state, you get a full refund or a new date — your choice, no argument. If the forecast is marginal, we talk the evening before and re-shape rather than cancel: the coast always has a sheltered side.

Yes, and they tend to have the best day aboard of anyone. Lifejackets in children’s sizes, high freeboard, a swim platform at water level, and a crew used to setting the pace around small people. Tell us ages when booking.

Lunch is yours to choose rather than ours to bundle. We book you a waterfront table — Passable, Anjuna, La Guérite, the captain will match the restaurant to the day — or arrange food aboard to eat at anchor. Restaurant bills are settled by you directly; nothing is marked up through us.

Towels, snorkelling kit, seabobs and a locker of water toys, a freshwater deck shower, fridge and ice, iced water for the day — and a complimentary welcome rosé on ice as you board. Bring swimwear and sunscreen; anything beyond that, champagne to a full lunch spread, is arranged with the crew and quoted plainly when you book.

Almost — the captain anchors only where it is legal, clean and beautiful, which this coast makes easy. Favourite spots include the coves under Cap Ferrat, the Villefranche bay, and the impossibly clear anchorage between the Lérins islands.

Yes — half days, sunset runs, an early start for a flat sea, a late finish for the light. Tell us the shape of day you want and the captain builds it. Give us the date and you will have a straight answer the same day.

Write through the booking page with your date and party size. A €250 deposit holds the day; the balance settles before or on the day. You will always know the full picture — rate, estimated fuel, any restaurant bookings — before anything is charged.

Yes — Monaco, Villefranche, Nice, Cannes and Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat pickups are all regular arrangements, subject to port fees and berthing that day. Then it is simply a boat day in Monaco or Cannes rather than a day out of Beaulieu. Tell us where you are staying and we will make the morning simple.
