  • If you're new to yachting and wondering where to start Antibes is my recommendation.
    This is the first part of a 'greenies guide to yachting' I'm going to work on this season to help answer any questions you have regarding joining the industry.
    Get in touch with Grapevine Crew house:

    Nice video, Tom! I truly enjoyed the tour of The Crew Grapevine, which is a fabulous and safe crew house. If only all crew houses were as good, we would be living in a better world :) Having said that, the title of the video "Yacht Beginners Guide" I find misleading. If anything, the video is a tour of one crew house and how to get to it. A mention of alternative options to Crew Grapevine (which does get fully booked during high season), where to get the ENG/1 medical, crew agencies, crew training, local Facebook yacht crew groups and alternative options for dockwalking in Antibes (such as Monaco, Nice, Golfe Juan and Cannes) would have been super helpful for everyone watching your video. As for those of your subscribers looking to get to Antibes in the future to land work on a yacht, I have listed all local crew houses, crew agencies, crew training schools and ENG/1 medics in the welcome post on the Facebook group "Antibes Yacht Crew" ( facebook.com/groups/antibesyachtcrew/announcements ) . Please don't get me wrong, my comment is meant as constructive criticism, and I do look forward to checking out the rest of your yachting videos! By all means, do feel free to share your videos in the Facebook Yacht Crew groups that I manage :)

    Hi Tom! Hopefully you get this message. Thanks so much for sharing, I’m headed to Antibes in two weeks, finally as covid set me back 2 years. Just stressed as all the grapevines are full and I don’t know where else to stay. Feel like I’m missing out! Any advice?

      Palma is an awesome yacthing hub and a lot of people find their first job there. Your limited to the island the south of France is all connected by a very convenient train line.
