Yacht charter Cogolin

A yacht charter Cogolin will bring you to the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. Situated only a few kilometers from the town of Saint-Tropez, Marina Port Cogolin offers a less fashionable environment than the Marina in Saint-Tropez itself. The town is easily accessible by car or via the airports in Nice and Marseille. The town of Cogolin itself, about 5km inland from the marina, has turned to tourism but still retains its original flair. In Saint-Tropez you can experience the highlife, in Cogolin you can feel the quiet and real life of Southern France and the charm of Provence. Among other things, Cogolin is known for its market held twice a week. Here specialties and handicraft products of the surrounding countryside are offered. Lavender soap, Provencal honey or sunflower oil, a stroll through the market is a beautiful experience for all the senses. The market is especially famous for its fabrics from Provence. After the market visit, a stroll through the city is a good idea. One of the oldest buildings in town, at least the foundation walls date back to the 11th century, is the church of St. Sauveur. A clock tower dating from the 14th century represents the only remains of a fortress built here during that period.
If you are looking for a little bit of sports off the water, a yacht charter Cogolin offers the ideal conditions. In the hinterland between Cogolin and Bormes-les-Mimosas lies the Massif des Maures. This mountain range offers with many hiking and mountain biking tours, for example around the Lac du Trapan (located in the direction of Bormes-les-Mimosas), or the Lac des Escarets in the nature reserve La Plaine des Maures (north of Cogolin). An equestrian farm not far from Cogolin also offers horseback riding in the nature of the massif, and golf lovers will find several courses in the vicinity of Cogolin.
The marina of Cogolin is located next to the marina Port Grimaud and is separated from it only by the small river Giscle. It is well-equipped, offers a supermarket, a restaurant and a bathing beach is directly adjacent to the marina. The clean, shallow sandy beach is also very suitable for children.

A yacht charter in Côte d'Azur - nature parks and small archipelagos between sophisticated cities

The entire sailing area of Côte d'Azur with its climatic conditions is perfect for sailing beginners and families. The weather is pleasant and mostly constant, the winds are moderate and there are few shallows or reefs in the water. The coastline is characterized by white beaches in front of green forests and the azure sea. The coastal strip is especially considered a hotspot for the rich and beautiful. In addition to cities such as Monaco, Cannes or St. Tropez, which attract with their glamour, fashionable waterfront promenades and luxurious strolling and shopping miles, there are also small idylls for nature lovers and those seeking tranquility. For example, the archipelago of the Hyères Islands, west of Cogolin between Le Lavandou and Toulon , off the mainland. These are foothills of the Massif des Maures, from which it was separated by rising sea levels in the course of the earth's history. Part of the archipelago is a nature reserve, including the main island of Porquerolles. In the north of the island there is a small harbor and on its coast one beach is more beautiful than the other. On a walk around the island you can visit the Fort St. Agatha. A 16th century watchtower, which offers information and an exhibition about the Port-Cros National Park. The Rhône delta, also called the Camargue, not far from Montpellier, offers nature lovers and families a beautiful destination with its free-living Camargue horses and the countless flamingos. Nearly 400 species of birds call this protected habitat home. Turn east up the coast on your yacht charter Cogolin. After a short stopover at the seaside resort Saint-Raphaël is worthwhile. Here four large beaches and innumerable smaller ones offer on a total length of 36km everything that makes the heart of water sports enthusiasts beat faster. Little water rats can easily splash around in the gently sloping water and the white, fine sand is perfect for enthusiastic castle builders. The sophisticated Cannes and the somewhat quieter Golfe-Juan are also within easy reach on your yacht charter Cogolin. In front of Golfe-Juan are the Îles de Lérins with their fantastic beaches and one of the most beautiful diving areas of the Côte d'Azur.
