Built by Benetti in 2010, AFRICA I enjoyed a significant refresh in 2021, including a new 10m Onda tender and 6m Castoldi tender. Step aboard into an interior decor comprising cool shades and tranquil hues, complemented by hardwood floors and leather wall panels. Wake to the view of a glowing sunset from the full-beam master cabin on the main deck forward. Flanked by large windows that fill the interior with natural light, it features bold colours, original artworks and an ensuite with his and hers basins for your every convenience.

Rise early and enjoy breakfast al fresco on the master cabin private deck. After coffee and fresh croissants, climb the dual access stairs to the upper deck where you’ll discover large foredeck sun pads that form a sunbathing haven protected from view. Basked in morning sunshine with retractable shading for the midday heat, it’s a golden way to start your day ahead of a busy itinerary.

With five further guest cabins on the lower deck, including a luxurious VIP cabin, AFRICA I welcomes a total of 12 guests. Come together under the airy main salon’s striking marble ceiling, gathered on comfortable seating. Plan the day’s activities with the captain on the main deck aft, making use of the vast collection of water toys. Lift Foils and electric surfboards will appeal to your inner gadget geek, while speed demons can experiment with Waverunners, wakesurfing or plunging headfirst down the sun deck inflatable slide. For something more leisurely, explore the coastline by paddle board or chill out on the water on an inflatable sofa.

Formal dining is provided in the main salon, but for a casual lunch, the upper deck aft is where it happens. The 12-person dining table suggests lingering meals or dip in and out buffet style, the choice is yours. As the day progresses, move to the sun deck for sprawling views or take a dip in the on-deck jacuzzi with a glass of Champagne in hand. As evening falls, the cosy upper deck salon cinema presents an unrivalled film night experience.
