The Mediterranean is one of the world's most popular yacht charter destinations. Each season offers different experiences in terms of climate, crowds, and events. Here's our guide to choosing the best time to charter a yacht in the Mediterranean from Monaco, depending on your preferences and sailing style.

Spring (April to June): serenity and gentleness

Spring is an ideal season to enjoy the first warm days without the summer crowds. The ports are quieter, the temperatures are pleasant (20-25°C), and the sea is beginning to warm up. It's the perfect time to explore the French Riviera or the Italian islands in peace.

Summer (July to August): festive atmosphere and perfect weather

It's peak yachting season in the Mediterranean. The sun is shining, the sea is warm, and social events are in full swing in Monaco, Saint-Tropez, Ibiza, and Mykonos. If you're looking for a chic and lively atmosphere , summer is your season. Be sure to book early to have a choice of yachts and time slots.

Autumn (September to October): Understated elegance

Often overlooked, the off-season is one of the best times to charter a yacht. Temperatures remain mild, the sea is still warm, and tourist attractions are less crowded. Numerous nautical events, such as regattas and the Monaco Yacht Show, punctuate this period.

Winter (November to March): for lovers of unusual experiences

While winter isn't the traditional yachting season in the Mediterranean, some destinations further south (such as Malta or Tunisia) offer pleasant weather. It's also a great time for private retreats, exclusive events , or intimate onboard celebrations.

What is the best time for you?

It all depends on your priorities: peace and quiet? Spring or autumn. A festive and glamorous atmosphere? Summer will be perfect. A confidential and original experience? Winter can surprise.
