    Maël was an amazing skipper, kind, communicative and gracious. He tailored our sailing experience to include several stops at beautiful areas where we could swim and explore the beautiful Mediterranean. Mael’s experience, knowledge and warmth made the day even more special. We couldn’t have asked for a better captain or a more perfect day. Thank you, Maël. Would highly recommend and would hire again to explore and sail!

    Jean-Pierre and Marie were fantastic and we couldn’t have asked for a better day! Very attentive for drinks and lunch but also wouldn’t have known they were there. Very friendly! For others booking - check out the route, the statues are right at the islands so you may want to check them out before lunch. (Boat has to anchor outside of the swimming zone). Also remember to reserve the seabob.

If you don't have a boat license, renting a boat on the Click&Boat platform is no problem. With so many yacht charters to choose from on the French Riviera, you are sure to find an option suitable for you, even without a boat license. Depending on the size and type of the boat, you may not require a license to drive it - you should always check this with the boat owner via the Click&Boat platform's messaging system. In most cases, it is a popular choice to charter a yacht with a skipper or captain. Not only is your captain able to drive the boat for you and keep you safe but they also come in handy as a local expert. Your skipper will know all of the best spots. If you want to go snorkelling, your skipper will know the place to go. They will also be able to recommend the best local restaurants, the most beautiful secluded beaches and be able to answer any other questions you may have about the boat, sailing or the French Riviera.


Yacht Hire Without License on the French Riviera

The French Riviera is the Mediterranean coast of South East France. Among its most beloved towns are the famous towns of Saint Tropez and Cannes. Well-known for the glitz and glamour of luxury lifestyle, it is not uncommon to spot luxury yachts in these areas. But with such a long coastline and so many stunning towns to choose from, renting a boat without a license is perhaps the best way to experience the French Riviera. Lay back and let your skipper do all the work as they guide you calmly through the waves whilst you enjoy the warm French sun. Renting a boat with a skipper can sometimes alter the price of your booking. Sometimes a skipper is an added extra and sometimes it is included in the initial price. We always recommend talking directly with the boat owners via the Click&Boat platform so that you know exactly what the role of your captain will be and how to best organise your yacht charter without license on the French Riviera.
