Your yacht management firm
on the French Riviera.
Cursorio is based in Le Cannet, fifteen minutes from Cannes. We follow our principals across the entire French Riviera and the western Mediterranean — Cannes, Monaco, Antibes, Saint-Tropez, Corsica, Sardinia, Balearics.
The French Riviera is the global yachting nerve centre: the concentration of private superyachts here is higher than anywhere else in the Mediterranean, the season stretches from May to October, and the infrastructure — ports, shipyards, suppliers, crew — forms a dense and demanding ecosystem. For an owner, operating a yacht here means benefiting from the best European setting; it also means dealing with high operational pressure and a level of quality that tolerates no approximation.
Cursorio is a local firm, anchored on the French Riviera for years. This proximity is not a marketing gimmick: it translates concretely into the ability to be on board within 30 minutes from Le Cannet for an entry audit, to visit a shipyard in Antibes or La Ciotat within the day, to meet a supplier in Cannes or Monaco without friction. When your yachts travel — Caribbean in winter, Adriatic in summer, Balearics in season — we keep the rhythm through a curated network of local agents.
Our portfolio remains deliberately selective: a handful of vessels followed for the long term, rather than a broad list of lightly-monitored mandates. This is, in our view, the only way to sustain the operational discipline and the level of proximity private owners and family offices expect on the 50-metre-plus segment.
Four destinations,
continuous local presence.
Cannes
Vieux Port, Port Canto, jetée Albert Edouard.
At the heart of the Festival and peak seasons, Cannes regularly hosts superyachts up to 110 metres. We operate there with our network of port agents and vetted suppliers.
Monaco
Port Hercule, Port Fontvieille, Yacht Club de Monaco.
The reference quay in the Mediterranean. Monaco Yacht Show in September, Grand Prix in May, private events year-round. Prime berths are notoriously hard to secure — yearly preparation makes all the difference.
Antibes
IYCA, Port Vauban, Quai des Milliardaires.
The technical capital of Mediterranean yachting: shipyards, suppliers, available crew. The compulsory waypoint for refits and crew changes between two seasons.
Saint-Tropez
Nouveau Port, Quai Jean-Jaurès.
The most sought-after destination in high season. Limited capacity, heavy competition for berths, tight operational management from May to September. Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez in October.

Beyond the French Riviera.
Our principals do not spend the year on the French Riviera: they cruise Corsica, Sardinia, the Balearics, Greece, the Adriatic. We follow these routes through a network of local port agents and suppliers with whom we have worked for several seasons. Secondary ports we regularly operate in:
Indicative list. For any call outside our usual network, we identify and vet the port agent and suppliers ahead of the voyage.
