Boat charter in French Riviera (Côte d'Azur) · Lagoon 42 in Hyeres — “Avadele” — (2019)

Hyeres sits at the crossroads of the Côte d'Azur and the Îles d'Hyères, making it an ideal launch point for exploring the French Riviera's most sheltered anchorages. Avadele, a 2019 Lagoon 42, is built to take full advantage of this position. As a four-cabin catamaran, she accommodates eight guests across four separate bathrooms—a rare luxury for bareboat charters that means no queuing and genuine privacy for families or groups exploring together. Living aboard Avadele means enjoying the catamaran's twin-hull layout, which delivers stability you'll notice from the moment you drop anchor. The wide beam creates a steady platform for relaxing on deck or in the spacious saloon, while the shallow 1.2-meter draft opens access to shallow bays and sandy anchorages impossible for traditional monohulls. Below deck, the saloon and cabin areas flow naturally around the hulls, with well-separated sleeping quarters that give everyone their own retreat. The trampolines stretched between the bows offer the classic catamaran experience—lounging while watching the water slip beneath you. From Hyeres, your week unfolds with genuine choice. Sail east toward the Massif de l'Esterel's dramatic red cliffs, north into quieter river anchorages, or southwest toward the Porquerolles and Port-Cros islands. Avadele's reliable engine and efficient systems mean you can chase good weather and calm waters without compromise, exploring a coastline that rewards curiosity.
