Long before the advent of cinema, Cannes expanded its international influence thanks to yachting - the first royal regattas date back to the 20 years of the last century. Many crowned persons managed with yachts in the Gulf of Cannes; royal regattas have been held here since 1929. Since then, every year in September, a lot of classic and non-traditional yachts, most of which are unique, straighten their sails near the Vieux Port de Cannes to participate in the most beautiful maritime competitions. Before the regatta, the Cannes Yacht Festival is held - at this time, the picturesque setting of the Old Port becomes an exhibition window for about 500 boats.
We wish you many happy moments and a pleasant stay on the fabulous Cote d'Azur!
