Monaco Yacht Show 2026 | 50 Exceptional Yachts Worth Exploring

From a €148 million Feadship with a helipad to ice-class explorers, radical motor catamarans, magnificent sailing yachts and some of the most exciting recent launches, the Lomond Yachts Monaco selection is something special.

There are yacht shows, and then there is Monaco. For a few days each September, Port Hercule becomes the centre of the superyacht world, bringing together extraordinary yachts, owners, designers and shipyards in a concentration that is difficult to replicate anywhere else. For anyone seriously considering buying a yacht, it offers an opportunity not simply to admire some of the finest yachts in existence, but to compare very different approaches to design, engineering and ownership in one place.

For Monaco Yacht Show 2026, Lomond Yachts has curated a selection of 50 yachts that we think deserve attention. This is not intended to represent every yacht at the show. It is our selection, spanning Feadship, Amels, Heesen, Sanlorenzo, Rossinavi, Perini Navi, Riva, Baglietto, Tankoa, CRN, Princess, Vitters and others, ranging from approximately 26 metres to 74 metres and from established pedigree yachts to some remarkable recent deliveries and future builds.

What makes this collection particularly exciting is the sheer variety. There are yachts designed to cross oceans and venture into polar waters, others conceived around speed and Mediterranean living, enormous displacement yachts with helipads and swimming pools, radical multihulls, elegant sailing yachts and new projects that point towards where the market is heading next.

At the very top of the market

At around €148 million, VANISH immediately establishes the level at which this Monaco collection is operating. The 71.5-metre Feadship was delivered in 2021 and combines around 1,728 GT of volume with seven staterooms, expansive exterior spaces and a range of around 5,200 nautical miles at cruising speed.

This is a yacht conceived at genuinely large scale. Among her features are a swimming pool, beach club, gym, elevator and touch-and-go helipad, while the owner’s accommodation includes a private study. Contemporary Harrison Eidsgaard design inside and out combines with Feadship construction to create one of the standout yachts in the selection.

SYNTHESIS goes larger still. At 74 metres, the 2021 Amels offers approximately 1,790 GT of volume, accommodation for 12 guests and a dedicated owner’s deck with its own forward Jacuzzi. Her bridge deck aft incorporates a helipad, while a substantial garage provides space for large tenders and equipment. An infinity pool and extensive exterior areas reinforce the sense that this is a yacht designed around both scale and serious use. With an asking price around €132 million, she sits alongside VANISH at the summit of the collection.

Yet length and price tell only part of the story. LOON, the 67.4-metre Icon delivered in 2010, is offered at around $42.95 million and presents a very different proposition. A major hull extension transformed her stern into an enormous beach club and waterside entertainment area incorporating a pool, while a range of around 6,000 nautical miles gives her genuine long-distance cruising capability. With six decks and seven staterooms, she offers extraordinary scale at a very different price point from the newest northern European yachts.

When explorer yachts become genuinely adventurous

AKULA takes the explorer concept somewhere more extreme. Delivered by Rossinavi in 2024 and offered at approximately €62 million, this 59.4-metre yacht was conceived for serious global exploration rather than merely adopting the visual language of an explorer.

Her reinforced steel hull is built to Ice Class standards, opening up the possibility of polar cruising and more demanding itineraries, yet she combines that capability with the design and finish expected of a contemporary Italian superyacht. Accommodation for ten guests across five cabins and more than 1,200 GT of volume make AKULA a particularly good illustration of how far the explorer market has evolved. Serious capability no longer has to mean sacrificing the experience expected aboard a luxury yacht.

Sanlorenzo’s PARA BELLVM approaches exploration differently. At 47 metres, the 2023 500Exp combines a range of around 5,400 nautical miles with a vast aft working and entertainment deck, an infinity pool, substantial tender capacity and fold-down terraces. The 500Exp concept was developed with the ability to land a small helicopter on the extended aft deck, illustrating that the space is intended to work as hard as it looks.

At around €28 million, PARA BELLVM also demonstrates the breadth of the market. A buyer considering her is making a very different decision from somebody looking at a €148 million Feadship, yet both yachts are ultimately attempting to answer the same fundamental question – where do you want to go, and how do you want to live when you get there?

A yacht that refuses to look conventional

Then there is THIS IS IT, and even among the extraordinary yachts of Monaco she demands attention. The 43.5-metre Tecnomar motor catamaran, delivered in 2024 and offered at around €42 million, has an extraordinary 14.5-metre beam that creates approximately 750 GT of volume.

More than 600 square metres of glass give the yacht the character of contemporary architecture rather than a conventional motor yacht. There is a swimming pool, spa with treatment area and sauna, six guest cabins and a remarkable split-level owner’s area with 3.3-metre headroom, panoramic terrace and a vertical garden extending across two decks.

Whether THIS IS IT is exactly how you imagine your own yacht almost misses the point. Yachts like this matter because they demonstrate how willing designers, builders and owners have become to challenge assumptions about what a superyacht should look like and how its interior spaces should work.

Feadship across the generations

VANISH may be the headline Feadship, but one of the pleasures of this Monaco selection is being able to look across several generations of one of the world’s great yacht builders. REVERIE, at just over 50 metres, was delivered in 2000, while DOUBLE HAVEN dates from 1993. PROMISE. is a much more recent 51-metre example from 2018, while EMERALD was originally delivered in 1990 and CONSTANCE in 1986.

That spread creates a far more interesting buying conversation than simply asking which is newest. A Feadship approaching 40 years old and one delivered within the last decade represent completely different acquisition propositions, but age alone does not determine desirability. Construction pedigree, maintenance, refit history, interior volume, machinery, layout and the intended cruising programme all matter.

It also illustrates why Monaco is so valuable for serious buyers. Seeing yachts from different generations alongside one another makes it much easier to understand where value lies and what characteristics really matter to you.

Three very different Heesens

The Heesen contingent creates another fascinating comparison. ELA, delivered in 2021, measures approximately 50 metres, while RELIANCE, delivered in 2023, and AFTER YOU, delivered in 2011, are both around 55 metres.

AFTER YOU will already be familiar to anyone who explored our Cannes selection, where she appeared at an asking price of €32.5 million. In Monaco, however, the context changes. She can be considered alongside much newer Heesens, major Feadships and large explorer yachts, allowing a buyer to compare what age, specification, pedigree and price really deliver rather than looking at an individual yacht in isolation.

That is a recurring theme throughout this collection. Similar dimensions do not necessarily mean similar yachts, and similar budgets can lead to remarkably different ownership experiences.

Sanlorenzo on a bigger stage

Sanlorenzo has become one of the defining names of contemporary yachting, and the Monaco selection shows just how broad its range has become. Alongside PARA BELLVM are the approximately 62-metre ALCHEMIST, delivered in 2022, the 61.5-metre LEMON TREE from 2021, the 52-metre SEVEN SINS from 2017 and the 47-metre BIG SHARK from 2024.

At the other end of the Sanlorenzo selection sits AMI, an SX112 from 2023 measuring approximately 34.2 metres. The difference between an SX112 and a 500Exp is considerable, while moving beyond 60 metres takes the ownership proposition into another level of volume, complexity, crew and operational capability.

Seeing those yachts within one manufacturer’s wider output is useful because it demonstrates that choosing a builder is only the beginning. The more important question is which part of that builder’s philosophy actually suits the owner.

Italian theatre at its best

Monaco would not be Monaco without Italian flair, and this selection has plenty of it. SAIRU, the 54-metre Riva delivered in 2025, takes one of yachting’s most recognisable brands firmly into superyacht territory, while the 55-metre LOEWE from Tankoa, also delivered in 2025, offers another expression of contemporary Italian design.

Baglietto is represented by the 52-metre DAYBREAK from 2024 and the 46-metre MR. T from 2014, while the 54-metre Mangusta VELOCITY brings a more performance-oriented character. GIOIA, the 43-metre Codecasa delivered in 2024, and LADY FIRST, a 40-metre Riva from 2023, broaden the field further.

These yachts demonstrate why talking about an “Italian yacht” as though it were a single style is increasingly meaningless. The country produces everything from fast, sculptural performance yachts to large displacement vessels and serious explorer platforms, united more by confidence in design than by adherence to one formula.

Sailing yachts still belong at the top table

The Monaco selection is not exclusively about motor yachts. MAGIC, the 44.3-metre Vitters delivered in 2025, and the 32.6-metre ANOMALY from the same yard bring serious sailing pedigree to the collection. They are joined by the 47-metre ANDROMEDA LA DEA and 52-metre SQUALL from Perini Navi, together with GRACE III, the 39.3-metre Hoek Truly Classic 128 delivered by SES Yachts in 2021.

For buyers who still want the involvement and character of sailing, these yachts are a reminder that the upper end of the sailing market can be every bit as sophisticated as its motor-yacht counterpart. They also provide a very different answer to questions about range, engagement with the sea and the experience of travelling under your own sail.

The ability to consider those yachts within the same show as 70-metre motor yachts and ice-class explorers is part of what makes Monaco such a compelling place to think seriously about ownership.

The depth behind the headline yachts

Beyond the yachts that naturally grab the headlines, the depth of this collection is what makes it especially interesting. ALTHEA, the 47.5-metre Admiral from 2021, sits alongside the 49.4-metre OCEANOS from Mondomarine and the 46.3-metre Hakvoort AMICA MEA. ALASKA, the 46.4-metre CRN from 2005, EMOTION 2, the 43-metre CRN from 2007, and the 40-metre Sunseeker ALADDIN provide three very different routes into established large-yacht ownership.

More performance-focused choices include the 39.6-metre L.A.U.L from Extra Yachts, the 38.6-metre Dynamiq JETSETTER and the 39.3-metre Tansu S7. At substantially greater scale, the 58.2-metre Trinity CARPE DIEM provides an American-built alternative, while the 49.7-metre Rossinavi FLYING DAGGER III brings another distinctive Italian option into the mix.

There are yachts here for buyers seeking pedigree, speed, range, volume, contemporary design or simply something that feels different. That variety is far more interesting than producing a league table of the largest or most expensive yachts.

Looking towards what comes next

Not everything in the selection is an established yacht with years behind it. The Azimut Grande 44M looks towards 2028, as does the 25.9-metre KANDO 85 from Ava Yachts. The 27.4-metre ARKSEN 85 is associated with 2027, as is Moonen’s 37.4-metre YN208 Martinique.

Princess contributes the X95 Vista from 2026 and X90 associated with 2027, while the 26-metre ST-BARTH II from 2025 provides another more compact proposition. These yachts introduce a different question for buyers because the decision is no longer simply which existing yacht to acquire. It becomes whether waiting for a newer platform, specification or design offers enough additional value to justify the delivery timetable.

An existing yacht can potentially be inspected, surveyed, negotiated and acquired comparatively quickly. A future build offers opportunities around specification and personalisation, but introduces a completely different set of considerations around contracts, stage payments, delivery schedules and build oversight.

From €28 million explorers to €148 million Feadships

The scale of the Monaco selection becomes apparent when you stop thinking of it as a list and start thinking about the decisions behind it. At one end sits a 74-metre Amels around the €132 million level and a 71.5-metre Feadship at around €148 million. Elsewhere there is a €62 million ice-class Rossinavi explorer, a radical €42 million Tecnomar catamaran, a long-range Icon around $42.95 million and a Sanlorenzo explorer around €28 million.

Purchase price, of course, is only part of the comparison. A 74-metre yacht approaching 1,800 GT, with a helipad, large tenders and substantial crew requirements, represents a very different ownership commitment from a 40-metre performance yacht or a 27-metre explorer. Crew, berthing, fuel, insurance, technical management, maintenance and future capital expenditure all become part of determining which yacht genuinely fits an owner’s plans.

This is where the excitement of Monaco becomes something more useful. The extraordinary concentration of yachts makes it possible to compare not merely specifications and asking prices, but fundamentally different approaches to yacht ownership.
