A birthday on the Gulf is a postcard that stays in memory 20 years. Half-day €450, full day €650, we adapt to age and desired vibe. 5 detailed programmes.
18-25 years: full-on festive format
For an 18th, 21st or 25th, the goal is vibe: 8-10 friends group, loud music, champagne, swimming, endless selfies. La Vie Est Belle boat (10 pax, €650/day) is the perfect weapon. Full day mandatory — half-day frustrates.
Typical programme: 10am departure, Pampelonne anchorage 11am, onboard sound and improvised DJ, Nikki Beach lunch (shared table, DJ vibe), afternoon swim, sunset aperitif, 6pm return. Total budget ~€1,400 boat + €90/person lunch = €215/person.
30-40 years: balance of elegance and relax
Our most popular format. Mixed couples/singles group, want memorable without chaos. Lady L or Topi (6-8 pax, €550-650/day), half-day 2pm-6pm or full day per preference.
Typical programme: day at Port Grimaud + Pampelonne, Bagatelle lunch (chic, discreet), swim break at L'Escalet, sunset return with Ruinart champagne. Budget ~€700 boat + €110/person lunch + €20/person champagne = €185/person for 8.
40-50 years: the milestone, mark the moment
40 or 50 celebrates differently. Often couple + family + close friends, 10-12 people. Recommended format: full day + onboard gourmet dinner (+ our partner caterer). Boat like San Lorenzo SX 76 (12 pax) or two synchronised boats.
Typical programme: 12pm departure, champagne aperitif, Ramatuelle sailing, onboard caterer lunch at anchor (4-course tasting menu, €95/person), swim, Bagatelle beach dinner in evening. Full-day budget: ~€3,500 all-in for 12 = €290/person.
60+ years: the gentle cruise
For 60th, 70th or 80th, priority to comfort and serenity. Catamaran (max stability, no seasickness) or classic yacht with skipper handling everything. Half-day often suffices — calm sea, aperitif, intergenerational family photos.
Typical programme: 3pm departure, gentle Port Grimaud navigation, champagne aperitif at anchor facing the village, onboard birthday cake (+€40, Cascade pastry shop in Sainte-Maxime), 7pm return to port. Budget: €1,200 catamaran + €35/person aperitif = €160/person for 10.
For any special occasion, let us know 72h ahead. We prepare: custom cake (chocolate, lemon, raspberry), "Happy Birthday" banner, flower bouquet, audio message at the chosen moment. Zero surcharge for simple orders, transparent pricing for extras.
FAQ
Can we order a birthday cake?
Yes, we work with Cascade (Sainte-Maxime pastry) and Kouba (central Sainte-Maxime). Custom cake 6 to 12 portions, €40-80 by complexity (cream, chocolate, edible photo). Order 72h ahead. Delivered on board before your arrival, chilled.
How far in advance to book everything?
In high season (June-September), book 2-3 weeks ahead for the best dates (weekends, 14 July, 15 August). In low season, 1 week suffices. For a surprise birthday, we can adapt in 48h if available.
Can we bring our own DJ?
Yes, provided their gear is Bluetooth or RCA compatible (classic boat sound connector). No XL decks — lack of space. Alternative: professional embedded DJ (+€500/outing, gear included, 4h set).
