When it comes to indulging in the glamorous French Riviera, few experiences compare to a private yacht trip. This particular Yacht Charter Naturist offering from Villefranche-sur-Mer promises a luxurious, private, and naturist-friendly escape between Nice and Monaco. Guided by the highly-rated Glisse Evasion, this 4-hour adventure is tailored for those wanting to soak up the sun and scenery in a more natural, clothing-optional setting.
What makes this experience stand out? First, the exceptional views and peaceful coves you’ll visit are difficult to match. Second, the all-inclusive package ensures a stress-free day with just the essentials—skipper, fuel, and water—covered. Third, the small group size (up to 6 people) offers intimacy and flexibility that larger tours simply can’t deliver.
