Monaco Formula One Grand Prix Yachts

This year, avid fans of Formula One racing will have the chance to enjoy the 69th edition of Monaco Grand Prix, a sporting event that annually occasions professional drivers to compete in an adrenaline-fueled rally. It is also a good opportunity for the related enthusiasts to experience a great holiday in a place of glamour and prestige. However, since this competition gathers numerous tourists, accommodation is a very important aspect to be taken into consideration. The Principality offers a wide range of hotels where you could check in, but it gives one the alternative of leasing a yacht during the event as well. Thus, Monaco Formula One Grand Prix yachts represent a special option of spending your stay here.

Seeing that Monaco has a beautiful harbour, this has served as a favorable premise for the development of yacht chartering, an activity which is especially prosperous during events like Monaco Grand Prix. Apart from being a terminal for commercial transactions, Hercule Harbour is a place of accommodation for numerous yachts that travel to the Côte d’Azur. Located in  the heart of the municipality of the Condamine, and in the vicinity of all shopping and leisure facilities, the port meets the most relevant conditions of a touristic area. Moreover, it favors race viewing in an exotic location since the circuit of the Monaco Formula One race includes this region.

Those who find the idea of resorting to a yacht in order to partake in the rally as appealing, have three options to materialize it:

While the first and the third are more convenient in terms of the quality of race viewing, but quite expensive when it comes to costs, the second is free but it doesn’t give you the best view of the race. Therefore, it is up to you to decide which of these factors prevail in your choice.

The ones interested in obtaining a Monaco GP berth for their yachts have to submit an application to the Harbour Office between early January and late February, being given that the competition takes place between 26th and 29th of May. In late March, after all the applications are reviewed, the port’s administrative authorities select the valid candidates and notify them in which zone they have been allotted a berth. It is only a few weeks later that the successful applicants find out the exact position of their berth.

There are companies which offer assistance in applying for a yacht berth. They spare customers the efforts of taking care personally of these formalities. Clients with F1 connections usually benefit from a speeding of the process thanks to the increased chances of getting a berth sponsorship letter from an individual or company that is involved in ‘F1′. The ones without a direct ‘F1’ link, who also want to limit expenditures, have three alternatives. They can either accept a mooring in the adjoining ports of Fontvieille or Cap d’Ail, anchor their yacht off Monaco or rent a berth in the main harbour.

If you decide to anchor off Monaco, don’t worry, you could still manage to assist to the race. You can book a lunch and a viewing spot on land and then travel by ferry ashore.

In case you don’t have a yacht of your own, there are several types of such vessels to chart in order to enjoy the “Monaco Grand Prix yachting” experience. Thus, you can choose from:

Once you decide which of these solutions suits you best, then there is nothing which can stand in your way to make your Monaco Formula One Grand Prix yachts experience a memorable one.
