During the summer months the Mediterranean becomes a superyacht haven, with the French Riviera being the most notorious location of them all. From quaint towns like St Tropez, to the bustling nightlife of Monaco, the South of France caters to all superyacht guests’ needs.&nbsp;Home to the Cannes Film Festival, it is no wonder that celebrities and high-class superyacht guests indulge in the idyllic south coast of France to lap up the sunshine and enjoy the bright blue waters.&nbsp;SuperYacht Times takes a look at the superyachts which have been recently gracing the picturesque coast of the French Riviera.&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/8278" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Kismet122.0m (400'3&quot;)Lürssen Yachts2024"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/322263/image/large-3008d8deded219e8d9f8339bcdc28e94.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/322263">Kismet</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/23" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lürssen Yachts (Company)">Lürssen</a>&nbsp;| 122-metre | 2024&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/23" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lürssen Yachts (Company)">Lürssen</a>’s imposing 122-metre superyacht <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/8278" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Kismet122.0m (400'3&quot;)Lürssen Yachts2024">Kismet</a>, previously known as Project Jag, features exterior design by <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/65" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Nuvolari Lenard (Company)">Nuvolari Lenard</a>, while her interior was crafted by <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/56" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Reymond Langton Design Ltd.

<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/64" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Oceanco (Company)">Oceanco</a> has sailed through the first half of the year by breaking new ground on a number of outstanding projects. Firstly, the Dutch builder kicked off 2023 with the transformation of an icon from its fleet.

It welcomed back two of its yachts to carry out updates for their new owners, and delivered its largest vessel to date, an outstanding 125-metre sailing yacht, as well as an elegant 109-metre motor yacht. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/274370/image/large-881a034517cb5a8f1473d28a10ef92e1.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/274370"> EVOLUTION OF AN ICON&nbsp;The transformation of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/300" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="H3105.0m (344'6&quot;)Oceanco2000">H</a> is one for the history books of yachting.

Her name is Aeolus, and her creators see her as a standard bearer for the future of dwellings on water. As the newest yacht to align with the company’s NXT initiative, she is in tune with evolving perspectives on the environment as well as lifestyle. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/260226/image/large-f0b66d9e24a8c456f931a8f195390c9a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/260226">Striking an equilibrium between feminine curves and masculine presence, Aeolus’s exterior has been designed by Giles Taylor, with complementary interiors from Njord by <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6198" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Bergman Design House (Company)">Bergman Design House</a>. Like a natural, private retreat and sea-borne sanctuary, her decks are arranged in pod-like formations, with an owner’s private oasis at the pinnacle. Here you will find a unique private owner’s deck, with a bar and relaxation area hidden above, and a cocoon-like master suite with unobstructed panoramic. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/260233/image/large-1c479b9790926e0b3f510d8958a6496c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/260233">As technology is now a critical element of any yachting experience, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/64" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Oceanco (Company)">Oceanco</a> has partnered with <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4441" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="One B.V.

By using computer learning to tailor the yacht’s technology touch points, Aeolus Aura delivers a seamless, intuitive and non-intrusive experience that is fully adaptable, safe and secure.&nbsp;In a collaborative commitment to the future, Aeolus’s creators have imagined a way to live better while also respecting the oceans. Her Njord interior has a strong language of introducing fully sustainable and traceable materials – including biomaterials – at her core. These include Desserto, a premium vegan leather alternative made from climate-positive cactus plants, as well as organic, non-toxic cottons from Oliveri Home. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/260232/image/large-b7de23ca124a32f3ac8bd07b7b3311f6.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/260232">In terms of sustainable technology, alongside technical partners ABB and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1409" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="MTU (Company)">MTU</a>, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/64" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Oceanco (Company)">Oceanco</a> and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5009" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lateral Naval Architects (Company)">Lateral Naval Architects</a> have developed a unique Energy Transition Platform – or ETP – that can be implemented on Aeolus as a three-phase adaptable architecture to enable a future-proofed pathway to Net Zero. The ETP allows a yacht to accommodate the alterations to layout, configuration and specifications needed to integrate future technologies and alternative fuels in the least invasive way possible; thus ensuring multiple technical pathways can be pursued as technologies mature during the energy transition timeline.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/260229/image/large-ba009a74d0b36c92c260e9b1e63e5203.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/260229">“The collaboration and innovation resulting in the Aeolus design has been remarkable,” comments Marcel Onkenhout, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/64" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Oceanco (Company)">Oceanco</a>’s CEO. “As our newest <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/64" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Oceanco (Company)">Oceanco</a> NXT design, she is a trailblazing example of how we envisage the evolution of yachting, from the perspectives of both her design and technology. To build the yachts of tomorrow, we need to leave behind the preconceptions of yesterday. With Aeolus, I think we have achieved that.” &nbsp;LIFE CYCLE SUPPORT UPGRADES&nbsp;In June, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/64" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Oceanco (Company)">Oceanco</a> completed a six-week Life Cycle Support refit period on 59-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/440" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Treehouse59.1m (193'11&quot;)Oceanco2001">Treehouse</a> (ex-Helios).
