Rade de Villefranche-sur-Mer Anchorage
✨ Hidden gem
Drop anchor in one of the Mediterranean's deepest natural harbours, just a few kilometres southwest of Monaco — the depth here means you'll find solid holding in a bay that has sheltered royal and imperial navies for centuries. Today it's all sailboats, yachts, sunny terraces and a laid-back Riviera atmosphere, with the pretty hillside town of Villefranche-sur-Mer right on your doorstep and the Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat peninsula a short trip away.
