Les Voiles d'Antibes: Classic Yachts, the Old Town & the Ramparts
The classic yacht regatta seen from the ramparts of Antibes, the Port Vauban village, and the old town with a guide who lives nearby.
Overview
In early June, the classic and vintage yachts of the Mediterranean gather in Port Vauban for Les Voiles d'Antibes, the opening of the Mediterranean circuit of traditional yachts. The regatta is best seen from the ramparts of the old town, where Pacôme takes you between the Picasso museum, the Provençal market and the lanes of the old Antibes, with the village of the event on the Bastion Saint-Jaume for the music and the terraces.
This full day combines the regatta with Antibes and its cape: the coastal path, the Garoupe sanctuary, and lunch where the sailors eat. For 2027, Les Voiles d'Antibes run from 2 to 6 June. Note that the Monaco Grand Prix is held on the same weekend: from 3 to 6 June, days are quoted on request; 2 June is bookable at the standard rate.
