Cannes Anchorage
✨ Hidden gem
Drop anchor in the Rade de Cannes and you've got a front-row seat to one of the most glamorous stretches of the French Riviera, with the iconic Croisette promenade and the Palais des Festivals just a short dinghy ride away. The backdrop of the Esterel hills, the Lérins Islands nearby, and the constant parade of superyachts give this anchorage a real buzz that's hard to match. Holding is generally good, but aim for a depth that suits your rode and be prepared for some swell if the wind picks up.
