Since it began in 1991, the annual spectacle of the Monaco Yacht Show (MYS) staged in the principality’s storied Port Hercule has been synonymous with wealth, extravagance and a display of gargantuan boats. This year is no exception, with around 118 gleaming superyachts and megayachts showcasing some of the finest (and largest) luxury objects money can buy.
However, this year's show marked an important milestone in yachting history, as the 32nd edition of the event opened with a conference on sustainability for the first time ever, showing that environmental responsibility is very much a priority on the industry's agenda.
