Day boats

36 options across our Saint-Tropez fleet.

Thirty-six day boats make up this fleet, sitting apart from the crewed motor yachts and superyachts on this site because they answer a different question: how to get on the water for an afternoon, a sunset run or a beach-club lunch without the logistics of an overnight charter. Rates start at €1,700 for the category, and the boats themselves range from open-deck cruisers suited to a party of friends to steadier hulls built for families with children who want swimming stops rather than distance covered. Most bookings in this class leave from the Nouveau Port and stay close: a run south to the Pampelonne approach for a tender-free landing near Club 55 or Nikki Beach, a half-day loop toward Cap Taillat when the water off the peninsula is calm enough to justify the swim stops, or a straightforward evening departure timed to be back on the water as the light drops over the Gulf. None of this requires the fuel planning or customs awareness that a passage toward the Îles d'Hyères would call for — a day boat out of Saint-Tropez is built around a single afternoon or evening, not a route. Capacity and layout vary enough across the 36 boats that it is worth matching the vessel to the group before booking: a corporate lunch for eight on the Gulf wants deck space and shade, a sunset outing for a couple wants speed and a clean swim platform, and a family with older children wants a stable ride out to a picnic anchorage rather than performance. The category exists precisely because these are shorter, lower-commitment charters — priced and equipped for a few hours on the water rather than a multi-day itinerary.
