The Mediterranean summer runs from Monaco to Sardinia, and the yachts that make it are built in a handful of yards in the north. Where to be, and when.

In short
The Monaco Yacht Show fills Port Hercule in Monaco every September with superyachts shown to buyers and brokers. The Yacht Club de Monaco, presided over by Prince Albert II, moved into its clubhouse by Norman Foster on the harbor in 2014.
The Yacht Club Costa Smeralda was founded in Porto Cervo on May 12, 1967, and its September regattas close the Mediterranean season. Saint-Tropez fills its old port each summer, and Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez brings classic and modern yachts there at the end of September.
In winter the fleet crosses to the Caribbean. Of the board's island addresses, Virgin Gorda, Anguilla and Christophe Harbour sit in the same waters.
Feadship builds in the Netherlands, Lürssen in Bremen, where it was founded in 1875, and Benetti in Viareggio, where it was founded in 1873. A new yacht over 70 meters usually takes several years from contract to delivery.
