Again Windstar Cruises is offering a cruise out of Nice that spends 3 days anchored off Monaco. For around $6000 a person you get great accomodations, race tickets, food, goodies, dinners, etc. as well as visit Cannes during the Film Festival, Nice, Porto Fino, etc. We did this four years ago and might be able to do it again.
For anyone who has always wanted to go to this race this is the way to do it. A marginal hotel in Monaco costs over $1000 a night. The staterooms on the Wind Surf are a modern 4 star. Best cruise I've ever done.
