Yacht Informer at the 2025 Monaco Yacht Show: The Highlights

Last week Yacht Informer attended the 2025 Monaco Yacht Show and we were all suitably impressed with everything that this year’s show had to offer, display and communicate, not least of which were the impressive Super Yachts that attended the show of course, which is what always provides the wow factor at any yacht show.

The sleek vessels were in the azure waters of Port Hercules, with their decks alive with champagne toasts and whispers of multi-million-pound deals. The air hummed with excitement as the elite gathered under the Mediterranean sun. Yacht Informer were welcomed to the 2025 Monaco Yacht Show, where luxury met innovation in a dazzling display that sets the tone for the superyacht world.

This event stands as the top spot for industry pros, buyers, and fans to connect and spot trends. Over four days, it drew thousands to see the latest in yacht design and tech.

Sustainability topped the list this year, with many yachts featuring low-impact engines. Electric options cut fuel use by up to 50% on some models. It all points to a cleaner, smarter future for sea travel. Digital tools for navigation also gained traction. The focus reflected a shift as owners crave safe, green escapes.
