Toulon Yacht Charter Guide | Yachts Below
Toulon is positioned on the western end of the South of France in Provence making it a convenient city and coastline for a luxury Toulon yacht charter. Toulon is fantastic for both motor yachts and sailing yachts and so a decent number of crewed superyachts visit the area, taking in some of the unique coastal offerings, as they move along the French coastline and the wider Mediterranean. This part of France is positioned between some of the Spanish yachting hotspots like the Balearic Islands of Mallorca and Ibiza and the French Riviera hotspots of St Tropez and Monaco. Accordingly, there are always a good number of charter yachts available to rent/hire in summer, priced from 15,000 Euro, right up to over 1,000,000 Euro. There are also typically yacht charter specials available – see below.
What You Can see on a Toulon Luxury Yacht Charter
Step back in time and tour the quaint city of Toulon, rich with culture and a destination for private luxury yacht guests looking to experience the French Riviera at the less frenetic Provence pace. Among the city's religious sites is the stately Cathedrale Notre-Dame-De-La-Seds de Toulon, which if visited on a Sunday will give you the full authentic atmosphere as churchgoers sing along in chorus to the grand church organ. Another finely decorated venue is the Opera de Toulon which is centrally located for an evening of delight, performing the greatest operas of all time.
The pedestrian district of Old Town is well suited to wanderers who like to find the sights for themselves instead of always planning ahead: Fountains of various shapes and sizes are scattered thought the streets and the Provençal market takes place every morning to sell locally-made products.
In 2009 Toulon was France's 15th largest city, yet despite being quite far down the list it has some impressive and varied attractions: Among the numerous museums is Musée des arts asiatiques from the French colonisation of southeast Asia, Musée d'art and Hôtel des arts, the latter being dedicated to contemporary artists and exhibiting five times a year.
Those interested in seafaring will enjoy the exhibits at Musee National de la Marine, which informs visitors on the city's historic influence on the waves. Displays are written in French, English and Spanish, and at the time of writing free audio guides are also available in several languages.
Away from the shops, top-class restaurants and galleries, guests can ride in glass-bottomed cable cars up to Telepherique du Mont Faron for the panoramic views and walks to local landmarks.
If your yacht charter group is simply looking for a day on land, Toulon has plenty of gardens where you can sit and admire the flowers, or discover the city's charms off the well-beaten path. Catch the latest local and international films in the cinema and settle into a local cafe for French patisseries and delicious cups of coffee.

Client Testimonials
What our clients say about their charter experience.
To the Reverie team: We want to say a huge thank you for everything you have done for us on this trip. You are the best crew we have ever had on a yacht, hands down. Everything has been flawless. Keith’s food has been healthy, tasty, voluminous, and so varied. The toys and tenders were always ready for us when we needed them, and we loved having 3 Sea-Bobs, 3 efoils and 2 jet skis. Always charged and ready to go, from the moment we woke until we went to bed. Our rooms were cleaned so fast we often wondered if there were fairies who appeared and did it. Our washing was done and returned so quickly we wondered if we dreamed it. Service was perfect (thanks Megan and team!) - always nearby when we needed it, and invisible when we didn’t. We aren’t sure how we will survive at home, and there won’t be a drink, a cold towel and a smile waiting for us. Shane - you found us the best anchorages - exactly where we wanted to be - out of the way, out of the wind, but close to everything. We wanted adventures, and you went out of your way to source e-bikes, which ended up being a highlight. We know it wasn’t easy to find or to get them on and off the boat. The smaller things: remembering everyone’s names; the printed AllTrails maps; taking our kids jet skiing. They have all been noticed and appreciated. We know that it isn’t easy to build a team that can create such an exceptional experience. Congratulations to everyone on board - including those behind the scenes we don’t get to see as much. We would love to come back again next year - only if the crew is the same! Thanks so much!
Hey Trina, the charter was perfect! The crew was very professional but always kind and accommodating. Beautiful boat. The captain had the right hookups wherever we went, so it was an amazing trip all around. Highly recommend this boat to your clients. Magical trip!
The crew was awesome (5/5). They worked so well together and really seemed to enjoy working together. They took care of our every need and then some. The cuisine was amazing (5/5). The chef was excellent and had a broad range of cuisine. The country kitchen setup gave us a greater opportunity to interact with the chef, which was a really nice feature. The yacht's interior was immaculate (5/5), and the condition of the yacht was like new (5/5). We absolutely loved the layout, especially the indoor/outdoor option of the bar area on the top deck, and we loved the décor. The amenities onboard were excellent (5/5), with everything we needed and more. We particularly enjoyed the floating chairs and the beach chairs, and we had two great fishing trips - Bo and Hunter were fantastic on those outings. The only suggestion we would make is that the outside aft top deck was always in full sun. We would have used it much more if there had been some type of awning, similar to the one they have for the bow sitting area. We discussed this with the captain on Saturday, and he had already ordered it by Sunday! We would absolutely recommend Indigo and her crew to others. Although the yacht sleeps eight, we would recommend no more than six adults. If there are two to four children, then eight guests could work comfortably. As for your service, we honestly cannot think of a single thing you could have done differently or better to ensure the ultimate yachting vacation. You went so far above and beyond. Thank you!
Sally, hi, the trip was amazing; we loved LIR. The crew were fantastic, and the chef came up with some fabulous meals. The itinerary was great, and the weather was almost perfect. We loved it so much we would definitely consider a repeat trip, maybe around Sicily, in the future.
Sally, Thank you guys for the most amazing week. Your kindness and expertise made all the difference. Can't wait to come back again! It was an amazing experience. Thank you! The crew were the best people in the world, we will miss them. Thank you for all you’ve done. This truly has been a life-changing week! Filled with so many unforgettable memories, laughs, and so many smiles. I can’t thank you all enough for making this a week to remember! This has been the BEST week of my life. You guys are amazing people; I’m so grateful.
Hi Sally, we had a great time! The crew were fantastic and really went above and beyond to ensure we had the best time. Thank you also for all your organizing and help. Kind regards, S.
