A 60 to 70m yacht the Mediterranean in the summer window (June through September 2026) runs $720,000 to $1,350,000 per week plus 30 to 38 percent APA, takes 12 to 14 guests across 7 to 9 cabins, and carries 18 to 26 crew. The 60 to 70m fleet at this LOA sits at roughly 90 to 110 charter-active hulls globally on the standing 2026 register, with peak-season Mediterranean concentration on the Saint-Tropez, Monaco, Porto Cervo, and Mallorca corridor at any given week running 25 to 35 hulls under active charter. The structural reality at this LOA is that the berth bench is the binding constraint, not the yacht supply. Med-mooring at 60 to 70m on the inner Saint-Tropez Old Port, the Antibes Quai des Milliardaires, the Cannes Vieux Port, the Porto Cervo central pontoon, and the Capri Marina Grande inner basin reads structurally short, and the bracket-fit week runs through 4 to 6 specific superyacht-grade alongside structures only. The Saint-Tropez New Port outer-T, the Monaco Port Hercule Quai Jean-Charles Rey, the Porto Cervo Marina di Porto Cervo north quay, the Cala di Volpe and Porto Rotondo outer anchors, the IGY Marina Port Vell Barcelona, the OneOcean Port Vell, and the STP Shipyards Palma de Mallorca outer-T base run the bracket-fit Mediterranean alongside structure. The Capitainerie of each port runs the prior berth-allocation framework on the 6 to 18 month lead-time basis for the bracket-fit August window.
Why the bracket-fit Mediterranean week reads structurally tight
The Saint-Tropez New Port outer-T and the Place des Lices outer-roads anchor. Saint-Tropez at 43 degrees 16 minutes north handles the bracket alongside on the New Port outer-T berth (the 60m-plus capacity on the prior Capitainerie allocation through the SNST Société Nautique de Saint-Tropez framework) with the structural August allocation running through the broker network on the 12 to 18 month lead-time. The Place des Lices outer-roads anchor on the Gulf of Saint-Tropez southwestern face handles the at-anchor footprint with the prior tender-routing through the New Port tender pontoon on the daily structure. The Saint-Tropez bracket-fit week routes the central old-town shore programme through Le Club 55 on Pampelonne beach, the Cave de Saint-Tropez wine-shore tender, and the Place des Lices market on the prior chef-coordination.
The Monaco Port Hercule Quai Jean-Charles Rey and the Yacht Club de Monaco T-pier. Monaco at 43 degrees 44 minutes north handles the bracket-fit alongside on the Port Hercule eastern Quai Jean-Charles Rey on the prior Yacht Club de Monaco coordination with the structural Monaco Grand Prix Formula 1 wider-week allocation (last week of May 2026 calendar) and the wider summer-season programme on the 18 to 24 month lead-time. The Yacht Club de Monaco outer T-pier on the 60m-plus standing capacity handles the bracket-fit Monaco wider programme on the prior club coordination. The Monaco bracket-fit week routes the central shore programme through the Hotel de Paris and Le Louis XV fine-dining tender shore, the Monte-Carlo Casino daylight, and the prior helicopter transfer from Nice NCE through the Monacair shuttle on the standing 7-minute Monaco-NCE routing.
The Porto Cervo Marina di Porto Cervo north quay and the Cala di Volpe outer anchor. Porto Cervo on the northeastern Sardinian Costa Smeralda at 41 degrees 8 minutes north handles the bracket-fit alongside on the Marina di Porto Cervo north quay (the 60m-plus capacity on the prior Capitainerie and the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda framework) with the structural Ferragosto August 15 wider-week allocation running through the broker network on the 12 to 18 month lead-time. The Cala di Volpe and Porto Rotondo outer anchors handle the at-anchor extension on the prior tender-routing structure with the daily shore programme on the Hotel Cala di Volpe and the Hotel Pitrizza tender access. The Porto Cervo bracket-fit week routes the central shore programme through the Grand Hotel Poltu Quatu and the Phi Beach shore-tender bar product on the daily structure.
The Mallorca STP Shipyards outer-T and the OneOcean Port Vell Barcelona base. Palma de Mallorca at 39 degrees 33 minutes north handles the bracket-fit alongside on the STP Shipyards outer-T berth (the Astilleros de Mallorca yard's 80m-plus capacity on the prior commercial-yard allocation) and the Club de Mar Palma's structural 65m capacity on the inner basin. The OneOcean Port Vell Barcelona at 41 degrees 22 minutes north handles the bracket-fit Catalan alongside on the southern Mediterranean-corridor leg on the prior IGY Marinas coordination with the 100m-plus standing capacity. The Mallorca bracket-fit week routes the central shore programme through the Cap Rocat fortress-hotel shore tender, the Es Trenc southern Mallorca beach anchor, and the Cabrera National Park outer-anchor extension on the prior Parc Nacional permit.
Weekly rate map for summer 2026 to 2027
Rates below are firm summer pricing (June through September 2026), before APA at 30 to 38 percent (the higher APA reflects the structural Mediterranean fuel cost on the 60 to 70m bracket-fit cruise consumption, the broker-coordinated berth-allocation fee structure on the New Port and Porto Cervo north quay, and the higher provisioning standard on the wider guest count) and gratuity at 12 to 15 percent.
| LOA bracket | Motor yacht (low to high) | Sailing yacht (low to high) |
|---|---|---|
| 60 to 63m | $720K to $850K per week | $550K to $670K per week |
| 63 to 67m | $850K to $1,050K per week | $640K to $810K per week |
| 67 to 70m | $1,050K to $1,350K per week | $790K to $1,000K per week |
The peak summer window runs the last week of July through the third week of August on the structural Monaco Grand Prix Formula 1 carryover, the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity (late June), the Cannes Film Festival (mid-May, the wider shoulder edge), the Tour de France Côte d'Azur stage, and the Ferragosto August 15 Italian peak. The week of August 15 pulls the structural premium on the Porto Cervo north quay allocation at 8 to 14 percent above the late-July base. The May and September shoulder windows run the wider weather-corridor and the structurally tight Monaco GP and Cannes Festival allocation on the early-May, and read 12 to 20 percent below the August central peak on the bracket. The Mediterranean 60 to 70m all-in week at the bracket runs roughly 30 to 45 percent above the equivalent 50 to 60m Mediterranean week on the structurally wider crew, fuel, and berth-allocation cost. For broader context see 50-60m Mediterranean, 60-70m Cote d'Azur, and the How Mediterranean APA works guide.
What is in the bracket in this bracket
Cabins. Seven to nine. The Mediterranean summer pool at the bracket runs the bridge-deck owner suite plus the on-deck VIP plus the five to seven main-deck and lower-deck guest doubles as the layout, calibrated to the multi-couple multi-generational peak-week pattern on the 12 to 14 guest envelope.
Crew. Eighteen to twenty-six. The Mediterranean call rewards a captain bench with prior Saint-Tropez New Port outer-T allocation routine through the SNST framework, prior Monaco Port Hercule and Yacht Club de Monaco T-pier coordination, prior Porto Cervo Marina di Porto Cervo north quay tenure through the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda framework, prior STP Shipyards Palma de Mallorca outer-T standing, and prior Cannes Festival shoulder-week and Monaco GP wider-week guest-routing bench. The chief stew bench with prior Hotel de Paris Monaco, Hotel Cala di Volpe Porto Cervo, Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc Antibes, and Le Club 55 Saint-Tropez shore-coordination is the structural client-facing load-bearing question at the bracket. The chef bench runs the wider Mediterranean Michelin-grade pool with the Operakällaren and Le Louis XV cross-pollination structure.
Tenders. Primary 12 to 14m fast tender plus a 10 to 11m beach tender plus a chase boat plus a dedicated dive tender plus a 9 to 10m limousine tender. The Pampelonne beach Le Club 55 shore landing, the Capri Marina Piccola shore call, the Porto Cervo Hotel Pitrizza tender access, the Cala Coticcio Caprera National Park shore (subject to the Parc daily-cap allocation), the Es Trenc southern Mallorca beach anchor, and the Cabrera National Park outer-anchor tender run tender-heavy on the wider daily programme. The limousine tender takes the primary on the Saint-Tropez New Port and the Cannes Vieux Port guest-arrival on the structural fine-dining shore.
At-anchor stabilizers. Load-bearing at the bracket. The Mediterranean summer protected hold runs the structurally light-swell window through the central June to September calendar, but the 60 to 70m hull mass and the multi-couple at-anchor guest expectation run the at-anchor zero-speed product as the structural fit. The 2018-and-newer hulls with the gyro-and-fin combination on the modern zero-speed package hold the bracket fit on the wider Mediterranean corridor, and the older hulls without the at-anchor product read structurally short at the bracket.
Beach club. Load-bearing at the bracket. The Mediterranean water temperature runs 22 to 26 degrees through the central July to August window and the beach club open-platform daylight runs the structural day-anchor swim and the wider swim-and-water-toy daily programme. The bracket-fit guest swim runs the open beach-club deck on the Pampelonne, the Cala di Volpe, the Cala Coticcio, and the Es Trenc at-anchor hold on the daily structure with the bracket-fit slide, water-park, and pool combination on the bridge-deck or main-deck pool.
Helipad. Cat A load-bearing at the bracket. The cross-Mediterranean helicopter shuttle from Nice NCE, Olbia OLB, Mallorca PMI, and Naples NAP to the at-anchor or outer-marina pickup runs the bracket-fit upper-end guest transfer and the structural overnight transit-shaving routine on the wider Saint-Tropez to Porto Cervo or Mallorca to Capri leg. The Monacair Nice-Monaco 7-minute shuttle on the Yacht Club de Monaco T-pier touch-and-go runs the bracket-fit guest-arrival product. The bracket without the Cat A helipad reads structurally short on the wider Mediterranean cross-basin product.
Trip shape that fits the bracket
The bracket's Mediterranean summer week runs the structural 7-night Côte d'Azur to Costa Smeralda corridor or the 7-night Balearics central programme on the bracket-fit guest pattern. The 7-night Côte d'Azur and Italian Riviera routing runs Nice NCE embarkation through the Monaco Port Hercule or the Cannes Vieux Port outer-anchor pickup, one night at the Port Hercule for the Monaco shore programme, two nights at the Saint-Tropez New Port outer-T with the Pampelonne Le Club 55 daylight and the Cave de Saint-Tropez wine-shore tender, two nights at the Cannes outer-roads with the Cannes Vieux Port shore programme and the Sainte-Marguerite and Saint-Honorat Lerins Islands day-anchor, two nights at the Antibes Quai des Milliardaires outer-roads with the Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc shore tender, one night on the Monaco return.
The 10-night Côte d'Azur to Costa Smeralda extension routing runs the Nice or Cannes embarkation with the prior 7-night Côte d'Azur structural programme, the eastbound overnight transit to the Sardinian Costa Smeralda, two nights at the Porto Cervo Marina di Porto Cervo north quay with the central shore programme through the Grand Hotel Poltu Quatu and the Phi Beach tender, one night at the Cala di Volpe outer anchor with the Hotel Cala di Volpe shore tender, the southbound transit to the Caprera National Park with the Cala Coticcio day-anchor (subject to the daily-cap), one night at the Porto Rotondo outer-roads with the disembark on the Olbia OLB guest transfer.
The 7-night Balearics central programme runs Mallorca PMI embarkation through the STP Shipyards or the Club de Mar Palma alongside, one night at the Club de Mar for the central Palma de Mallorca shore programme on the La Lonja old-town tender, two nights at the Cap Rocat fortress-hotel southern outer-anchor with the Es Trenc day-anchor, the southbound passage to the Cabrera National Park, one night at the Cabrera outer-anchor with the prior Parc Nacional permit, the westbound passage to Ibiza, two nights at the Ibiza Marina Botafoch and the Cala Salada outer-anchor with the daily shore programme through the Es Vedrà day-anchor and the Formentera Cala Saona tender, one night on the Mallorca return with the disembark.
The 7-night Capri to Amalfi routing runs the Naples NAP embarkation through the Stazione Marittima alongside on the prior coordination (the bracket-fit Capri inner-basin Marina Grande reads structurally short at this LOA and the Capri call routes the at-anchor footprint on the Marina Piccola southeastern face), two nights at the Capri outer-roads with the Marina Piccola tender, two nights along the Amalfi Coast with the Positano outer-anchor and the Conca dei Marini Blue Grotto daylight, two nights at the Ischia and Procida outer-roads with the central island shore programme, one night on the Naples return with the disembark.
What the bracket does not do well in the Mediterranean
The non-prior-allocation Saint-Tropez or Porto Cervo Ferragosto plan. The August 15 Ferragosto wider-week on the Saint-Tropez New Port outer-T and the Porto Cervo Marina di Porto Cervo north quay runs the structurally tight allocation on the 12 to 18 month lead-time, and the walk-up plan without the prior berth-allocation reads as the structural blocker at the bracket. We would pass on any non-prior-allocation Ferragosto plan and route the bracket-fit week on the late July or the early September shoulder edge with the structural berth confirmed in writing through the captain's office at the contract.
The Capri inner-basin Marina Grande or the Saint-Tropez Old Port inner berth. The Capri Marina Grande inner-basin and the Saint-Tropez Old Port inner-berth structures read structurally short at the 60 to 70m LOA on the basin-depth and the Med-moor stern-to capacity. The bracket-fit Capri and Saint-Tropez call routes the at-anchor footprint or the outer-T allocation on the prior coordination. We would pass on any Capri Marina Grande or Saint-Tropez Old Port inner-basin proposal at the contract.
The non-Cat-A-helipad bracket-fit cross-basin proposal. The bracket-fit Mediterranean week runs the structural Cat A touch-and-go helipad on the cross-basin guest-routing and the bracket without the Cat A helipad reads structurally short on the wider Saint-Tropez to Porto Cervo or Mallorca to Capri overnight-transit-shaving routine. We would pass on any non-Cat-A-helipad bracket-fit proposal at the contract.
The October through April plan. The Mediterranean charter calendar runs the structural June through September window at the bracket, with the May and October shoulder edges holding on the structurally tight basis only on the prior Cannes Festival or Monaco Yacht Show wider-week allocation. The October through April plan runs the wider Mediterranean winter shutdown on the bracket-fit berth structure and the closed Côte d'Azur and Costa Smeralda summer-economy footprint. We would pass on any October through April Mediterranean plan and route the bracket on the Caribbean winter rotation for the same calendar.
Two we would book
