Marine — Monaco & French Riviera
Yacht AV in Monaco & the Riviera
Monaco · Antibes · Cannes · La Ciotat — serving the world's densest superyacht fleet.
The French Riviera is home to more superyachts per kilometer of coastline than anywhere on earth. Monaco alone berths the densest fleet of 60+ meter vessels in the world. Antibes hosts the operational brain of the Mediterranean charter fleet. And La Ciotat runs one of the largest superyacht refit facilities in Europe.
Cave Group runs yacht AV integration projects across the Riviera — from ongoing support visits for Monaco-berthed owners, to full technology refits at MB92 La Ciotat during scheduled yard periods. Every system we install is specified for the marine environment, and every deployment is designed to be operated by charter crews and maintained remotely.
Ports & Refit Yards
Where We Work on the Riviera
Monaco
Port Hercule · Port de FontvieilleMonaco is the year-round home port of the world's densest superyacht fleet. Port Hercule alone berths hundreds of vessels — from 30-meter planing yachts to 150-meter displacement megayachts. Cave Group attends projects at Monaco for ongoing support, in-season refit work, and commissioning of systems delivered elsewhere.
Antibes
Port VaubanPort Vauban in Antibes is the operational center of the Mediterranean charter fleet. Owners and captains live and work out of Antibes year-round, and the city hosts the largest concentration of yacht service businesses on the Riviera. Our work here is refit-heavy — legacy AV upgrades, network replacements, and Starlink Maritime deployments during shoulder season.
Cannes
Vieux Port · Port CantoCannes hosts the annual Cannes Yachting Festival — the largest in-water yacht show in Europe — and serves as a working base for charter and owner vessels all year. Cave Group runs commissioning and refit visits in Cannes timed around the show schedule and charter windows.
La Ciotat
MB92 La Ciotat · Monaco MarineLa Ciotat is the French Mediterranean's heavyweight refit port. MB92 La Ciotat operates one of the largest refit facilities in Europe, handling vessels up to 180 meters. Monaco Marine runs a significant yard nearby. Cave Group runs full technology refits during yard periods here — 3-Series to 4-Series Crestron migrations (including Crestron lighting control replacing any legacy Lutron HomeWorks), Starlink Maritime installations, and UniFi Protect deployments.
Marseille
La Ciotat adjacent — large-vessel capacityMarseille's yard infrastructure complements La Ciotat for the largest vessels and multi-season refits. Our involvement here is typically as part of a phased refit plan for vessels that winter on the Riviera.
What We Do on the Riviera
Services for Riviera-Based Vessels
Charter-Ready Technology
Riviera-based charter vessels need reliable guest-facing technology — Kaleidescape cinema in the master and VIP, Crestron touch panels that just work, Crestron lighting scenes that adapt by time of day, and Wi-Fi that stays up under 20 simultaneous guest devices. We tune for the charter experience and the crew's ability to recover quickly between trips.
Starlink Maritime + Cellular for Mediterranean Cruising
The Mediterranean is covered by Starlink Maritime anywhere the vessel sails. Paired with Peplink multi-SIM cellular failover and a UniFi Enterprise onboard network, connectivity stays seamless from Monaco to Palma to Sardinia and back — with automatic WAN failover to cellular in port. No VSAT legacy costs.
MB92 La Ciotat Refit Projects
We fit into MB92 La Ciotat's yard windows for full technology refits. Typical scope includes legacy Crestron 3-Series to 4-Series migration with Crestron lighting control swap (replacing any old Lutron HomeWorks left over from previous integrators), legacy VSAT replacement with Starlink Maritime, and camera system migration to UniFi Protect with an ENVR Core. Pre-planned materials, staged commissioning, documented handover.
Monaco Owner Support
For Monaco-berthed vessels we offer ongoing support visits, commissioning of newly delivered systems, and crew training sessions. Remote support through Crestron XiO Cloud and UniFi Site Manager means most fixes happen without dispatching a tech.
Crestron, L-Acoustics, Kaleidescape Installation
We specify and install Crestron 4-Series with DM NVX and Crestron lighting control, L-Acoustics marine audio, Coastal Source deck audio, James Loudspeaker marine interior audio, and Kaleidescape cinema. All brands are native to our stack and all installations are commissioned with proper documentation.
UniFi Protect Security
G6 Pro cameras with AI detection, license plate recognition at the gate, local NVR storage, and mobile app access. No licensing fees, no footage on a vendor's cloud. We deploy and integrate with the existing UniFi network as part of a full enterprise build.
