Ocean Paradise by Azimut Benetti, the largest yacht at the show

Ocean Paradise, built by the Benetti Livorno Yachtyard, is 55 meters long. Built in aluminum and steel, this superyacht is based on an innovative, avant-garde interior design, fitted out in the utmost luxury. The mix of opaque and transparent materials and innovative architectural solutions gives her a clever blend of tradition, relationship with the sea and contemporaneity. Created at the request of its owner, a young businessman from Singapore, Ocean Paradise is designed in the purest minimalist style, with crystal and plexiglass materials without ever neglecting the relationship with the sea. Benetti proves once again that the shipyard can adapt to any owner's request.

The yacht has four guest cabins with private bathrooms and sea views. The owner's suite, located on the forward part of the main deck, spans the entire width of the boat and includes a spacious bathroom and a balcony. The design also relies on light, which plays an important role in the Ocean Paradise. LEDs are used, cleverly hidden in sheaths, without neglecting the natural light brought by skylights. A large rear platform is used as a relaxation area and a system of side openings serves as a mooring platform for jet-skis. There are also zen gardens and lots of greenery and plants in the Ocean Paradise, which gives it an eclectic atmosphere, in keeping with the other modern and luxurious spaces.

Finally, the Ocean Paradise is equipped with a luxurious pool with massage jets, a gym overlooking the sea and a bar with a disco area.

With a weight of 651 tons, 2,367 horsepower engines, a range of 4,000 nautical miles and an economical cruising speed of 12 knots with a top speed of 17 knots, the Ocean Paradise combines power and speed.
