As well as guaranteed top level competitive racing, what better place to spend a week or two of the summer than in the glorious sunshine of St Tropez and Genoa in the Northern centre of the Mediterranean?
Organised by the Yacht Club Italiano in association with the Société Nautique de Saint-Tropez, the Giraglia Rolex Cup comprises three days of inshore racing in the bay of Saint-Tropez followed by a 243 nautical mile offshore race. The offshore component is one of the most renowned races in the Mediterranean, and has been a tradition for European sailors for over 50 years. From the start off the historic port of Saint-Tropez the fleet heads to the idyllic Iles des Hyères before turning east across the Ligurian Sea to round the Giraglia, a rocky islet off northern Corsica. This year the finish port is Genoa, Italy.
