At Anchor: Must see superyacht charters attending the 2024 Monaco Grand Prix

By Katie Scott 24 May 2024

Putting the pedal to the metal, the fast and furious Monaco Grand Prix returns to the streets of Monte Carlo on one of the toughest courses of the Formula One calendar. One of the biggest social events of the year for visiting Mediterranean yacht charters, the Circuit de Monaco draws crowds in their thousands, plus a glistening array of superyacht charters.

An adrenaline-fueled 77-lap race with intrinsic chicanes and hairpins, Circuit de Monaco is one of the ultimate tests for participating Formula One racers, battling for their place on the coveted podium. Being just one of the very few courses to feature trackside berths, visiting Monaco yacht charters can offer a completely immersive experience just meters away from the action.

While many corporate yacht charters thrive on the electric atmosphere of Port Hercule during the racing program, some of the most extravagant megayacht charters can be spotted at anchor in the bay.

Close enough to enjoy the atmosphere of the 2024 Monaco Grand Prix, but far away enough to escape the hustle and bustle on the mainland, charter guests out in the bay can embrace the best of both worlds, with easy access to the main event via helicopter or tender, and abundant space to open up the toy garage for fun in between in the races.

Here are some of the stunning super yacht charters currently at anchor at the Monaco Grand Prix.
