Where to sail in the Caribbean?

There are a lot of options when it comes to a Caribbean charter so first start by narrowing down your options by focusing on a specific island groups like: Leeward Islands ( US Virgin Islands, British Virgin Islands, Guadeloupe, Saint Martin/St Maartens); Windward Islands (Martinique, St Lucia, the Grenadines, Grenada).

But Remember, no matter what island(s) you sail to, you are bound to fall in love with the small waterfront villages, secluded beaches, and hidden coves…

• Cuba, home to Havana and its unique vintage charm. Sail around the island, enjoy the white powdery sands and get a feel for the Cuban way of life.
• US Virgin Islands, a true mecca for yachters with many coves and inlets to discover. From shimmering sand and warm waters, don’t forget to explore the little islands of Thatch Cay, Hassle Island, and Water Island.
• The Bahamas, the stunning islands that connect the United States to the rest of the Caribbean. From the Abacos Chain to Eleuthera and the Exumas, the numerous sand bars and glistening cays of unparalleled beauty are sights to see.
• The British Virgin Islands, definitely one of the best places to sail in the world from consistent trade winds to its relatively short distances between islands, Tortola and the BVIs are a true sailor’s delight.
• Grenada, from the beautiful bays of Grand Anse to the white sands of Morne Rouge Beach, this is a can’t miss destination for charter vacations.
• Saint Vincent and The Grenadines, welcome to paradise. At the Tobago Cays snorkel around the amazing coral reef, swim with sea turtles and simply enjoy the beautiful waters.
• Guadeloupe, might just be the world’s best kept boating secrets! Try diving by Pigeon Island or take some time to visit Jacque Cousteau Reserve.
• And of course you can’t go wrong with some of the smaller islands... like dropping an anchor at South Friars Beach in St. Kitts, or cruising the coasts of Martinique.
