Villefranche-sur-Mer's waters, in practice
The Villefranche roadstead, one of the deepest natural anchorages in the Mediterranean, framed by Mont Boron and the Cap Ferrat peninsula. Wind-wise: a roadstead well protected from the prevailing winds, stirred mostly by the afternoon sea breeze.
Departures, day-trip classics and season
Departures: the Port de la Santé below the old town and the Port Royal de la Darse. The local classics: the loop around Cap Ferrat and its coves (Fossettes, Fosses), Beaulieu and Èze-sur-Mer, then the Baie des Anges towards Nice. High season: from June to September, when the bay fills with yachts at anchor.
