Monaco Grand Prix 2025

Port Hercule, with its 700 berths and capacity to accommodate yachts up to 130 meters, becomes a coveted docking ground. Among the anticipated highlights is the return of KISMET, a 122-meter Lürssen masterpiece that stole the show in 2024 as the longest super yacht charter at the Monaco Yacht Show. With its seven decks, helipad, and space for 12 guests, KISMET offers an unrivalled vantage point for watching cars navigate the tight Tabac Corner.
