About Luxury Crewed Sailing Yacht BERNIC II

BERNIC II is a CNB Ketch defined by clean lines, a sleek aluminium hull, and the kind of understated presence that turns heads in Antibes and St Tropez alike. Her black sails and purposeful design signal a vessel built for both performance and pleasure, where every detail from teak joinery to thoughtful deck layouts reflects decades of proven cruising craft.

Accommodation spans four double cabins, each with private ensuite and rich wood detailing that strikes the balance between polished and approachable. The saloon, flooded with natural light, anchors a warm interior where guests naturally gather. On deck, the foredeck opens to sweeping views of the Côte d'Azur, whilst the upper aft area becomes your evening dining room as the sun mellows over the coast.

Highlights

  • Four double cabins accommodate up to eight guests in genuine comfort, each with private ensuite and traditional teak cabinetry
  • Experienced captain and dedicated cook create a refined onboard culture, anticipating conditions and crafting memorable meals
  • Water toys including a Lomac RIB, fishing and snorkeling gear, and paddleboards open quieter coves and adventure options
  • Upper deck alfresco dining area and expansive foredeck provide intimate and social spaces for sunsets, meals, and morning departures

The Charter Experience

Your voyage unfolds under Captain Jean-Pierre, whose twenty years at sea and background in transatlantic routes bring both competence and anticipation to every passage. Stephanie, cook and stewardess, crafts meals that blend Mediterranean regionality with refined international technique, creating natural gathering moments as BERNIC II anchors off quiet coves near Nice or slides into the vibrant ports of Cannes and Antibes. Days balance active water pursuits with leisured exploration of lesser-known anchorages; evenings settle into the rhythm of local dining ashore or gourmet meals against the Riviera's legendary light. The result is a charter that feels both enriching and deeply relaxed.

Suggested Itinerary

A typical week might begin in St Tropez's sheltered waters, then sail eastward past the Îles d'Hyères to quieter anchorages near Porquerolles. From there, the itinerary drifts toward Port Grimaud's intricate waterways, followed by daytime exploration around Cannes and Antibes before concluding near Nice. Intersperse mornings at sea under sail, afternoons snorkeling in crystalline bays, and evenings ashore sampling Provençal restaurants or returning to BERNIC II for Stephanie's latest creation.
