Camara I is a 2023 Dufour 470 sailboat based in Port Grimaud, your gateway to the crystalline waters and hidden anchorages of the French Riviera. This three-cabin, seven-berth vessel combines modern comfort with thoughtful seamanship, making it an ideal choice for groups of friends or multi-generational families seeking a week of genuine Mediterranean sailing without compromise.

From your home port in Grimaud, you'll have immediate access to the Îles d'Hyères, the Porquerolles archipelago, and the dramatic limestone cliffs of the Esterel coast. The boat's 2023 build ensures everything works as intended: electric winches make sail handling effortless, the bow thruster simplifies tight anchorages, and the autopilot grants you peaceful moments to simply be present. The teak deck invites barefoot mornings with coffee, while the bimini and sprayhood create comfortable social spaces in any weather. Two full heads with proper ventilation mean mornings run smoothly, and the refrigerator keeps provisions fresh for simple suppers at anchor.

Camara I is equipped for both independence and ease. Solar panels extend your time away from marinas, the onboard dinghy opens access to secluded coves and waterfront villages, and thoughtful touches—a radio-CD for evening ambiance, cabin heating for shoulder-season comfort, a lazy bag that keeps sail management simple—demonstrate that this boat was built for people who actually sail. The 75 hp engine and bow thruster ensure confident maneuvering, while the spacious cockpit with its protective canopy becomes your living room at sea.

A week aboard unfolds naturally: mornings spent sailing between anchorages, afternoons swimming in emerald water, evenings watching the sun descend behind pine-covered hills as you prepare a simple meal on deck. This is sailing as it should be—capable, comfortable, and entirely yours.
