Star Clippers: Unique Adventures in the French Riviera


Star Clippers, a company managing three of the world’s largest and tallest sailing ships, offers a variety of 7-day cruises exploring the French Riviera, a slice of sun-kissed paradise along the southeastern coast of France known for its azure waters.

Guests of Star Clippers can thus enjoy a vacation in what has long been a holiday destination for celebrities and the backdrop of many James Bond films, as well as one of the most glamorous and breathtaking destinations in the Mediterranean aboard the 166-guest Star Flyer.

Thanks to its relatively small size, Star Flyer can dock in ports that large ships cannot reach, such as St. Tropez and Cannes. During the Corsica and French Riviera itinerary departing from Cannes, guests can visit Plage Saint Antoine in beautiful Corsica, while itineraries in the Ligurian Sea include stops in Italy and France with the opportunity to visit Elba Island, Sardinia, and Corsica, as well as the famous Monaco, the domain of princes and movie stars.

Visiting Monaco during the Grand Prix races, a must for enthusiasts, is possible, and Star Flyer offers two departures in 2025: the Grand Prix Trials departing from Cannes on May 17, 2025, and the Grand Prix Finals departing from Cannes on May 24, 2025, two itineraries designed to ensure stops in Monaco during the event, avoiding the worry or stress of finding a hotel during the busiest time of the year.

To make the cruise in the French Riviera even more complete, Star Clippers is offering guests booking a cruise, for selected departures, by May 31, 2024, a $400 flight credit per cabin plus a complimentary four-hour WiFi package. The offer includes Mediterranean departures in 2024 and 2025 ranging from seven to 16 nights and is valid only for residents of North, Central, and South America.

Additionally, sailing with Star Clippers includes most services in the price, ensuring a worry-free vacation: the cabin, three delicious meals a day, entertainment, the assistance of an expert cruise director, and transportation to and from ports via tender.
