Welcome aboard !
Discover the Mediterranean coast along with Irene VIII. Irene's captain and his second will welcome you onboard for a week-end, a week, or more.
No need to know the marine vocabulary thoroughly or to be highly skilled in sailing classic yachts: they will take care of it for you. Enjoy the teak deck, the Cote d'Azur sun and the colors of the Med, discover the most secrete anchorages and watch out for the dolphins...
However, if you want - whatever your previous sailing experience: take the helm, learn how to set sails, sit at the chart table - our skipper will be happy to introduce you to the joys of sailing a classic yacht.
Cruising aboard Irene...
A crew member picks you at the airport or at the station and takes you to the marina. First visit of the boat, drink in the cockpit and dinner in town, in one the captain's addresses.
The first night is generally spent in the marina; it's ideal to become used to the movements of the boat, which are smooth and gentle in the marina. If you cannot sleep, settle down in the saloon and enjoy the board's library: you will fall asleep, rocked by the stories of yachting, admiring photos of J-Class or schooners. Stuff to fulfill your dreams before the next day departure...
And then ? It's your call. From the Hyeres islands to Corsica, from Cassis to Antibes, our skipper will help you discover the most beautiful anchorages, away from the crowd or take you the trendiest places - you decide, weather permitting, of course.
Pursue dolphins or even whales (!), take the helm, plunge into the turquoise sea at Pampelone, walk through the small streets of the old Cannes, dine in Saint-Tropez. It is all up to you.
