Important - please read following paragraph !

To make your vacation comfortable and to have an enjoyable sailing experience we very strongly recommend arranging your charter one way - traveling from North to South - during the months of November through May. During these months the prevailing winds are ENE and traveling from South to North is a hard upwind sail and often not a very comfortable one. For example starting your charter in St. Vincent and finishing it in Union is a great choice (the cost of flight from Union to St. Vincent is about US$50.00 and worth every penny). For those who wish to sail more finishing your charter in Grenada is also a good choice.

In summer months - June through October - the winds are more variable and the sail can be quite comfortable in either direction.
What to expect

The entire trip is planned around your preferences and wishes . That goes for sailing , activities and most certainly your meals. Most of the days we change our location twice a day. The first sail is after breakfast to a day anchorage where we'll have lunch and some water time before sailing to an overnight anchorage. In the Grenadines the longest sail is less then 3 hrs and some could be as short as 1/2 hr  (but we can always make it longer if you wish us to do so). If you choose St. Lucia as your starting point the first day is a long 6 to 8 hr sail down to Bequia with lunch being served underway. If your final destination is in Grenada the longest sail is about 4 1/2 hrs from Isle de Rhonde to Grenada.

When it comes to wardrobe all you will be needing are shorts, T shirts , bathing suites and flip flops. The weather is nice and warm all year round down here.









Sample Itinerary

As mentioned above the entire trip is planned around your wishes and of course the weather. What follows are just a few examples of a 7 day charter originating and finishing in different locations.


St. Vincent to Union Island (or Canouan)

                 we will sail to Bequia (1hr) where we spend our first night.
                 *Many guests arrive a day in advance of the charter and spend their first night in one of the hotels.

Day 2  -   After breakfast we sail around the westernmost point of Bequia for a short upwind sail in protected waters to Petit
                 Nevis (1 1/2 hr).  This old whaling station will be our lunch stop . In the afternoon we sail to the overnight anchorage  of 
                 Mustique (1 hr) - the island of the rich and famous. Here you can take a tour of the Island , go Horseback Riding, rent a

                spectacular and the beaches pristine.

                beautiful anchorages in the Caribbean.  A walk to the top of Mayreau is a must. The view of Tobago Cays from behind the

                will be in season.

Day 7 -   From Chatham Bay we sail to Mopion (1/2 hr) -  it is one of the smallest Islands in the Grenadines - very unique. After

Day 8 -  Departure


St. Lucia to Grenada

             By now you probably figured out how it works. In this scenario just combine the last two itineraries  and squeeze them into 7
             days. This trip offers a LOT of sailing - if that is what you love - bring it on!


Grenada - Grenada

             This trip should be only considered during summer months June through October unless you are a hardcore sailor !!

             The itinerary for this trip takes you up the leeward coast stopping at a few of the beautiful anchorages of Grenada's
             Grenadines ( Isle de Ronde, White Island, Frigit Island and Carriacou ) and then we cross over to St.Vincent's Grenadines to
             visit the Tobago Cays, Mayreau , Mopion  and Union Island. Depending on the weather and your travel arrangements the
             return sail could be taken either on windward coast or leeward coast of the Grenada. Your final destination will be the
             anchorage in  historical St. Georges - one of the prettiest towns in the Caribbean. During your vacation you will experience
             all of the points of sail and the distance traveled will be slightly more then going from St. Vincent to Grenada.

             Grenada is an absolutely beautiful island. You've traveled a long way to get here so we strongly suggest that you stay at
             least one more day in one of the many hotels or resorts to explore Grenada by land. A local Tour Guide can take you around
             this lush, lovely island sharing with you their knowledge of the island's  flora and fauna, their history and their culture. The
             people here are as welcoming and as warm as the Caribbean sun. We will be more then happy to help you with the
             arrangements. For accommodations you can check following link :
