Customized Project: Floating Beach Club for Orient Express Corinthian

Orient Express Sailing Yachts - Customized Project

YACHTBEACH delivers a giant floating beach club for the world’s largest sailing yacht

With the Orient Express Corinthian, one of the most spectacular luxury travel projects on the world’s oceans is currently taking shape – and YACHTBEACH is part of it. For this extraordinary sailing yacht, YACHTBEACH developed a fully customized modular Floating Beach Club designed to set new standards for lifestyle experiences at sea.

During the official naming ceremony of the 220-metre sailing yacht on April 29, 2026, in Saint-Nazaire, the scale of this project became impressively visible. Alongside the yacht’s extraordinary presence, parts of the modular Yachtbeach system could already be experienced in French waters. Early elements of the Floating Beach Club were seen in real-water operation, offering an exclusive preview of the final concept.

One of the largest floating beach clubs ever built behind a yacht

When fully deployed, all modules form an impressive inflatable beach club landscape directly behind the yacht, spanning over 22 metres in width and more than 25 metres in length.

The modular Yachtbeach platforms transform the aft deck area into a luxurious floating lifestyle environment, creating a completely new connection between yacht, guests, and the sea.

 

The concept includes:

  • spacious lounge and chill-out areas
  • integrated pool directly on the water
  • extensive swim platforms
  • multiple access ladders for comfortable entry into sea and pool
  • toy docks with dedicated parking for jet skis, foil boards, sea scooters and other water toys
  • modular extensions for individual setups and destination-based configurations

 

Depending on the configuration, this creates one of the largest floating beach clubs ever built behind a yacht.

Orient Express Corinthian – luxury redefined

The Orient Express Corinthian was designed by French architect Maxime d’Angeac and combines advanced naval engineering with exceptional design and a refined vision of modern luxury.

With its innovative Floating Beach Club, YACHTBEACH extends the traditional yachting experience seamlessly onto the water, creating entirely new possibilities for relaxation, watersports, and social experiences directly at sea.

Yachtbeach sets new standards on the water

With a two-year development and implementation period, YACHTBEACH further strengthens its position as one of the leading providers of modular premium platform solutions in the international yacht industry.

This project clearly demonstrates how luxury lifestyle experiences at sea are evolving: larger, more flexible, and more immersive than ever before.

 
Making of – from concept to reality

Over a two-year development process, this customized project evolved from the first sketches and layout concepts into a unique floating beach club solution for the Orient Express Corinthian.

From detailed planning and engineering to production and final adjustments, every module was carefully measured, tested, and refined to ensure a perfect fit. A key focus was creating a flexible system that allows multiple setup configurations, adapting the beach club to different destinations and guest experiences.

Even before the yacht’s inaugural season, selected elements of the floating beach club were already showcased on the water, offering an exciting first glimpse of the final concept and its impressive scale.
